download MP3/WMA (Windows Media Audio) music files.
Follow the instructions from the website on how to
download the music files. You can then play back these
downloaded music files by burning them to a CD-R/RW
disc.
● Your downloaded song/files are for personal use only.
Any other usage of the song without owner’s
permission, is against the law.
■ About folder playback order
If MP3/WMA files are recorded in several folders, a folder
number will be set to each folder automatically.
These folders can be selected by the FOLDER button on
the remote control. If there is no supported file formats
inside the selected folder, the folder is skipped and the next
folder will be selected.
Example: How to set folder number if MP3/WMA format
files are recorded as below figure.
1
ROOT folder is set as folder 1.
2 As for folders inside ROOT folder (Folder A and Folder
B), the folder which is recorded earlier on the disc will
be set as folder 2 and folder 3.
3 As for folder inside Folder A (Folder C and Folder D),
the folder which is recorded earlier on the disc will be
set as folder 4 and folder 5.
4 Folder E that is inside Folder D will be set as folder 6.
● The folder and file order information which is recorded
on the disc depends on the writing software. There
maybe possibilities that this unit will playback the files
not according to our expected playback order.
● For CD MP3/WMA, 255 numbers of folders and files
inclusive of the folders which have non playable files
can be read.
Folder mode on/off can be operated by the FOLDER
button on the remote control. Files that are played when
folder mode is set to the on position, may differ from those
played back when folder mode is turned off.

Using the Radio Data System (RDS)
RDS is a broadcasting service which a growing
number of FM stations provide. These FM stations
send additional signals along with their regular
programme signals. They send their station names,
and information about the type of programme such as
sport, music, etc.
When tuned to an RDS station, “RDS” and the station
name will be displayed.
“TP” (Traffic Programme) will appear on the display when
the received broadcast carries traffic information, and “TA”
(Traffic Announcement) will appear whilst a traffic
information is on air.
“PTYI” (Dynamic PTY Indicator) will appear whilst the
Dynamic PTY station is received.
You can control the RDS by using the buttons on the
remote control only.
■ Using the Auto Station Programme
Memory (ASPM)
Whilst in the ASPM operation mode, the tuner will

for a short time and the station will be stored in
memory.
■ Information provided by RDS
Each time the RDS DISPLAY button is pressed, the
display will switch as follows:
CD
USB
Station name (PS)Programme type (PTY)
FrequencyRadio text (RT)
When tuning in to a station other than an RDS station or
to an RDS station which sends weak signal, the display
will change in the following order:
NO PSNO PTY
FM 98.80 MHz
NO RT
3 After scanning, the number of stations stored in
memory will be displayed for 4 seconds, and then
“END” will appear for 4 seconds.
To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:
Press the RDS ASPM button whilst it is scanning for
stations.
The stations which are already stored in memory will be
kept there.
Notes:
● If the same station is broadcasting on different
frequencies, the strongest frequency will be stored in
memory.
● Any station which has the same frequency as the one
stored in memory will not be stored.
● If 40 stations have already been stored in memory, the
scan will be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM
operation, erase the preset memory.
● If no station have been stored in memory, “END” will
appear for about 4 seconds.
● If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may
not be stored in memory.
● The same station name can be stored in different
channels.
● In a certain area or during certain time periods, the
station names may temporarily be different.

■ Notes for RDS operation■ To recall stations in memory
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean
that the unit is faulty:
● “PS”, “NO PS” and a station name appear alternately,
and the unit does not operate properly.
● If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a
station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function
may not work properly.
● When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too
weak, information like the station name may not be
displayed.
● “NO PS”, “NO PTY” or “NO RT” will flash for about
5 seconds, and then the frequency will be displayed.
Notes for radio text:
● The first 8 characters of the radio text will appear for
4 seconds and then they will scroll across the display.
● If you tune in to an RDS station which is not
broadcasting any radio text, “NO RT” will be displayed
when you switch to the radio text position.
● Whilst radio text data is received or when the text
contents change, “RT” will be displayed.

■ Condensation
Sudden temperature changes, storage or operation in an
extremely humid environment may cause condensation
inside the cabinet (CD pickup, etc.) or on the transmitter on
the remote control. Condensation can cause the unit to
malfunction. If this happens, leave the power on with no
disc in the unit until normal playback is possible (about 1
hour). Wipe off any condensation on the transmitter with a
soft cloth before operating the unit.

ON/STAND-BY
Caution:
This operation will erase all data stored in memory
including clock, timer settings, tuner preset, and CD
programme.
■ Before transporting the unit
Remove the iPod, USB memory device and disc from the
unit. Make sure there is no CD in the disc tray. Then, set
the unit to the power stand-by mode. Carrying the unit with
iPod or USB memory device left docked or discs left inside
can damage the unit.
■ Care of compact discs
Compact discs are fairly resistant to damage, however
mistracking can occur due to an accumulation of dirt on the
disc surface. Follow the guidelines below for maximum
enjoyment from your CD collection and player.
● Do not write on either side of the disc, particularly the
non-label side from which signals are read. Do not
mark this surface.
● Keep your discs away from direct sunlight, heat, and
excessive moisture.
● Always hold the CDs by the edges. Fingerprints, dirt, or
water on the CDs can cause noise or mistracking. If a
CD is dirty or does not play properly, clean it with a soft,
dry cloth, wiping straight out from the centre, along the
radius.
