Caution:
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Do not take apart this unit or attempt to make

This unit is a very intricate device that uses a laser pickup
to retrieve information from the surface of compact discs.
The laser is carefully shielded so that its rays remain
inside the cabinet.
Therefore, never try to disassemble the player or alter any
of its parts since you may be exposed to laser rays and
dangerous voltages.
¡Do not cause impact to the liquid crystal panel.
¡Usage temperature range: 0 °C to 40 °C
When the temperature is very cold or very hot, the
image may not appear clearly or may move slowly.
Also, movement of the image may seem to be out of
synchronization or the image quality may decline in
such environments. Note that this is not a malfunction
or problem.
¡In order to protect the liquid crystal panel, keep it out
of direct sunlight while the unit is not in use.

Notes on MP3/WMA
What is MP3/WMA?
MP3* (MPEG Audio Layer-3) and WMA (Windows Media
English
Audio) are the compression formats of digital audio. The
former is developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group),
21
and the latter is developed by Microsoft Corporation. Using
these compression formats, you can record the contents of
about 10 music CDs on a single CD (This figure refers to data
recorded on a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of
128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).
*MPEG Layer-3 audio coding technology licensed from
Fraunhofer IIS and Thomson.
Note:
¡ MP3/WMA encoding and CD writing software programmes
are not supplied with this unit.
Points to remember when making MP3/WMA files
Common
¡ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommend-
ed for high quality sound.
¡ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended
because playing time is not displayed properly and sound
may be skipped.
¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the encod-
ing circumstances. For details, refer to the instructions of
your own encoding software and writing software.
MP3
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or more”
and “fixed”.
WMA
¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “64 kbps or more”
and “fixed”.
¡Do not set the copy protection on the WMA file to enable
this unit to play back.

Caution
¡Never assign the “.mp3”, or “.wma” file name

format. This may not only produce noise from
the speaker damage, but also damage your
hearing.

the songs may not play in the intended order, or some
songs may not play at all.
¡ When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc,
Recording MP3/WMA files on a CD-media
¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files or

use different folders for each data.
¡ Do not record files other than MP3/WMA files and unneces-
sary folder on a disc.
¡ The name of an MP3/WMA file should be added by rules as
shown in the following descriptions and also comply with
the rules of each file system.
¡ The file extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be assigned to
each file depending on the file format.

same programme is tuned in automatically.
Traffic Programme (TP)
Some RDS FM stations periodically provide a traffic
announcement.
Stations which broadcast the traffic announcement are
called Traffic Programme (TP).
Traffic Announcement (TA)
Radio announcements on traffic conditions.
Clock Time (CT) Service
When receiving an RDS station, the CT service automatically adjusts the time. (
Programme Type (PTY) Display
RDS FM stations provide a programme type identification
signal.
Example: news, rock, classical music, etc. (
Programme Identification (PI)
Each programme has its own number. This may be used
to search for another frequency on which the same programme is broadcast.

Other RDS functions
Enhanced Other Networks (EON)
When EON data is received, the EON indicator lights and
the TA and AF functions are expanded as follows.
TA: Traffic information from the current and other net-
work stations can be received.
AF: The frequency list of preset RDS stations is updated
by EON data.
EON enables the radio to make fuller use of RDS information. It constantly updates the AF list of preset stations,
including the one that is currently tuned in to. For example, if you preset a station far from home, you will later be
able to receive the same station at an alternative frequency, or another station serving the same programme. EON
also keeps track of locally available TP stations for quick
reception.
Emergency Announcement Reception
When an emergency announcement is broadcast, the unit
is automatically switched to receiving that broadcast
(Even when in the other mode). During receiving the
emergency announcement, “ALARM” appears on the display.
Note:
¡Emergency announcements are broadcast at the TA
volume level. (
