Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high
temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These
conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby
shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion
and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit
and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when
setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged.
Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock.
Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric
shock.

This unit can play MP3 files recorded on CD-R/RW with a computer.
Files are treated as tracks and folders are treated as albums.
This unit can access up to 999 tracks, 255 albums and 20 sessions.
When making MP3 files to play on this unit
Disc format
Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for extended
formats).
File format
MP3 files must have the extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”.
To play in a certain order
root
Prefix the folder and file names with 3-digit
numbers in the order you want to play them.
Files may not be recorded in numbered order if
the prefixes have different numbers of digits. For
example: 1????.mp3, 2????.mp3, 10????.mp3.
However, some writing software may also
cause recording to occur in a different order.
Limitations on MP3 play

If the first session contains MP3 recordings, the unit will play from
•
the MP3 made in that session till the session before the first CD-DA
recordings.
If the first session contains CD-DA recordings, the unit will play only
•
the recordings made in that session. The subsequent sessions will
be ignored.
You cannot use 1-RANDOM play, A-RANDOM play and search
•
