Caution for DualDisc playback
The Non-DVD side of a DualDisc does not comply with the Compact Disc Digital Audio standard. Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.
This unit has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CDRWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA formats. If you change the source while listening to a disc, playback stops. Next time you select CD as the playback source, playback will start from where it had been stopped previously. When a disc is inserted upside down, Please Eject appears on the display. Press 0 to eject the disc. If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, it is automatically inserted into the loading slot again to protect it from dust. In this manual words track and file are interchangeably used. While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3/ WMA/WAV file, you can only hear intermittent sound. File/folder list may not appear correctly if too many hierarchies and folders are used.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory
During SSM search. All previously stored stations are erased and the stations are stored anew. When SSM is over, the station stored in the lowest preset number will be automatically tuned in. When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

FM Radio Data System operations
Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of Radio Data System signalsPI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. If a Traffic Announcement is received by TA Standby Reception, the volume level automatically changes to the preset level (TA Volume) if the current level is lower than the preset level. When Alternative Frequency Reception is activated (with AF selected), Network-Tracking Reception is also activated automatically.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW
Use only finalized CD-Rs or CD-RWs. This unit can only play back files of the same type as those detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files. This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing. Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons: Discs are dirty or scratched. Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens inside the unit. The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty. The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the Packet Write method. There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, etc.). CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs. Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck to the surface. Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperature or high humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc

This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter caseupper/lower). This unit can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and show WMA Tag.
This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed. This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below: Bit rate of MP3/WMA: 5 kbps 320 kbps Sampling frequency of MP3: 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz (for MPEG-1) 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz (for MPEG-2) Sampling frequency of WMA: 8 kHz 48 kHz The maximum number of characters for file/ folder names is 25 characters (including <.mp3>, <.wma>); 128 characters for MP3/ WMA Tag. This unit can recognize a total of files and folders (999 files per folder). This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate). Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function. This unit cannot play back the following files: MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format. MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format. MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and voice format. WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media Audio. WMA files copy-protected with DRM. Files which have data such as AIFF, ATRAC3, etc. The search function works but search speed is not constant.
