What is MP3?
SBS function
The SBS function produces rich, deep bass tones for a more power­ful overall sound.
ESP function
The ESP function ensures high resistance to shock or vibration so that the sound signal remains undis­turbed ( up to 120 seconds for MP3 and 45 seconds for a CD).
FM Radio Reception
You can listen to FM radio using various functions such as the automatic tuning, preset FM stations, and etc.
Album function

The Last Memory function allows you to listen to a song from the point you left off - handy for when you have to answer the phone or door.
MP3 means MPEG1 Layer 3, the global standard for audio signal compression technolo­gy. It uses digital compression technology to compress original sound data by up to 12 times without sound quality degradation.
File Compatibility
The unit will play back files created in MP3 format (Mpeg1.Layer 3) with *.mp3 as their
extension.
Files created in MP2 format (Mpeg1.Layer2) with *.mp2 as their extension can also be
played back.
How many MP3 files can a CD-R or CD-RW disc record?
The maximum capacity of one CD-R or CD-RW disc is 680MB.
Normally, one MP3 file has a capacity of 4MB, therefore approximately 170 files can be recorded on a single disc.
