Discs

Discs which can be played on this unit:

•Conventional audio CDs bearing the COMPACT DISC DIGITAL AUDIO logo on the label:

•Properly finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs

•MP3 CDs

Note:

<Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of the recording, some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be playable.

<Copy-protected discs and other discs that do not conform to the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player. If you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and its subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any consequences or guarantee the quality of reproduction. If you experience problems with such non-standard discs, you should contact the producers of the disc.

<Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side up. (Compact discs can be played or recorded only on one side.)

<To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

How to remove the disc

How to hold the disc

<Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface from the center hole outward towards the outer edge with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth:

<Never use chemicals such as record (LP) sprays, antistatic sprays or fluids, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic surface.

<Discs should be returned to their cases after each use to avoid dust and scratches that may eventually cause your disc to skip.

<Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures will warp the disc.

<Do not play any disc that is warped, scratched, deformed or damaged. Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playback mechanism.

<CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they are not stored in a location with direct sunlight and keep your discs away from sources of heat such as radiators or heat-generating electrical devices.

<Printable discs aren’t recommended because the label side might be sticky (or contain glue), which will damage the unit.

<Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the discs and do not use any protective coating spray.

<Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write information on the label side of a disc. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may cause damage to the recorded side of the disc.

<Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD stabilizers with this unit will damage the mechanisms and cause them to malfunction.

<Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart shaped, business card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:

<If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of any disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.

MP3 compatibility

<File names of MP3 should be alphanumeric characters. This unit cannot display symbols and full-size or 2 bytes-wide characters (such as Japanese, Chinese, etc.) correctly. Also, be sure to use the file extension “.mp3”.

<The disc must be finalized in order to play.

<The CD-ROM must be ISO 9660 compatible.

<When more than 200 files or 50 folders are recorded on the disc, the unit might not be able to play it correctly.

<The file must be mono or stereo MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 format, 44.1 or 48 kHz, fixed bit-rate.
