Discs, when not used, should be returned to
the box. Always hold the disc by the edges or by
an edge and the centre hole, and never touch
the active surface. Fingerprints or scratches
reduce sound quality and may render the disc
unreadable.
CDs exposed to direct sunlight or extreme
temperatures can warp and lock in the player.
MP3 discs can hold many more songs than
ordinary CD- DA discs, because of high
compression ratio. Your radio can play files
with 8 to 320 kbps bit rate and 8 to 48 kHz
sampling, as long as each session is properly
finalized; the disc needs not be finalized.

In most cases, LW and MW signals are
unaffected by tall buildings or natural
obstacles. Some interference can be caused by
high voltage lines, bridges or lighting storms.
These disturbances are only temporary. Signal spread
LW/MW reception (AM)FM reception
Distance from transmitter FM transmitters offer higher signal quality than
LW or MW transmitters. Moreover, stereo Hi- Fi
signal is transmitted.
FM transmitters are usually located at elevated
locations, e.g. tall buildings, hills, or in the
mountains. There is a reason for this - FM
signals are affected by “line of sight” issues and
their coverage is inherently limited. Usually, the
higher and more powerful the transmitter, the
bigger area is covered. Some local transmitters
or repeaters are low powered and can only be
tuned to within a few kilometers' area. More
powerful transmitters (usually operated by
networked stations) can be received at a
distance of up to 100 km. Anyway, when
exceeding a particular distance from the
transmitter, you have to tune your radio to
alternative frequency. When listening to
stations with weak signal, nearby stronger
stations can interfere with the reception. Such
interference usually occurs as you are nearing
the limit of the area covered by the particular
transmitter you are tuned to.

Signal echoes (multi- way reception
Signal losses
Warranty
)
FM signals reflect off buildings, hills and other
objects and these echoes may interfere with
direct signals. This may happen to any signal,
either strong or weak. Multi- way reception
impair the signal, which causes minor audible
faults or even strongly disturbed signal.
FM signals behave like light and cannot
penetrate through buildings, hills, obstacles
etc. Thus places may appear with no signal
coverage, which causes a “crackly” sound
when going through these areas
