Handle the discs carefully, especially
when you are inserting them. Hold
them on the edge and do not bend
them. Avoid getting fingerprints on
them, particularly on the shiny side.
Dirt, scratches, warping, pin holes, or
other disc damage could cause the
player to skip or to repeat a section of
a chapter or track. (To see a pin hole,
hold the disc up to the light.)
Remove discs from the compact disc
player when you are not playing them.
Store them in their plastic cases away
from moisture, heat, and direct sun-
light.

To clean a disc: Wipe it with a soft, lint−
free cloth that has been dampened with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the
center to the edge of the disc (not in
circles). Dry it with another soft, lint−free
cloth. Do not use a conventional record
cleaner or anti−static device. MP3/WMA FILES
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA
(Windows Media Audio) are audio com-
pression standards.
The MP3/WMA player can play MP3
and WMA files on CD−ROM, CD−R and
CD−RW discs.
The unit can play disc recordings com-
patible with ISO 9660 level 1 and level
2 and with the Romeo and Joliet file
system.
When naming an MP3 or WMA file,
add the appropriate file extension (.mp3
or .wma).
The MP3/WMA player plays back files
with .mp3 or .wma file extensions as
MP3 or WMA files. To prevent noise
and playback errors, use the appropri-
ate file extensions.
Multi−session compatible CDs can also
be played.
MP3 files are compatible with the ID3
Tag Ver.1.0, Ver.1.1, Ver.2.2, and
Ver.2.3 formats. The unit cannot display
disc title, track title and artist name in
other formats.
285
WMA files can contain a WMA tag that
is used in the same way as an ID3
tag. WMA tags carry information such
as track title, artist name.
The emphasis function is available only
when playing MP3/WMA files recorded
at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. (The system
can play MP3 files with sampling fre-
quencies of 16, 22.05, and 24 kHz.
However, the emphasis function is not
available for files recorded at these fre-
quencies.)
The sound quality of MP3/WMA files
generally improves with higher bit
rates. In order to achieve a reasonable
level of sound quality, discs recorded
with a bit rate of at least 128 kbps are
recommended.
Playable bit rates
MP3 files:
MPEG1 LAYER364 to 320 kbps
MPEG2 LSF LAYER364 to 160 kbps
WMA files:
Ver7, 8 CBR48 to 192 kbps
Ver9 CBR48 to 320 kbps
The MP3/WMA player does not play
back MP3/WMA files from discs record-
er using packet write data transfer
(UDF format). Discs should be re-
corded using pre−mastering" software
rather than packet−write software.
M3u playlists are not compatible with
the audio player.
MP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO
formats are not compatible with the au-
dio player.
The MP3 player is compatible with
VBR (Variable Bit Rate).
When playing back files recorded as
VBR (Variable Bit Rate) files, the play
time will not be correctly displayed if
fast−forward or reverse operations are
used.
It is not possible to check folders that
do not include MP3/WMA files.
MP3/WMA files in folders up to 8 lev-
els deep can be played. However, the
start of playback may be delayed when
using discs containing numerous levels
of folders. For this reason, we recom-
mend creating discs with no more than
two levels of folders.

The play order of the compact disc
with the structure shown on the left is
as follows:
MP3 player (rear seat entertainment sys-
tem)
001.mp3 002.mp3 . . . 006.mp3
MP3/WMA player (front audio system)
001.mp3 002.wma . . . 006.mp3
MP3 player (rear seat entertainment
system)It is possible to play up to
253 folders on one disc.
MP3/WMA player (front audio sys-
tem)It is possible to play up to 192
folders or 255 files on one disc.
The order changes depending on the
PC and MP3/WMA encoding software
you use. CD−R and CD−RW discs
CD−R/CD−RW discs that have not been
subject to the finalizing process" (a
process that allows discs to be played
on a conventional CD player) cannot
be played.
It may not be possible to play CD−
R/CD−RW discs recorded on a music
CD recorder or a personal computer
because of disc characteristics,
scratches or dirt on the disc, or dirt,
condensation, etc. on the lens of the
unit.
It may not be possible to play discs
recorded on a personal computer de-
pending on the application settings and
the environment. Record with the cor-
rect format. (For details, contact the
appropriate application manufacturers of
the applications.)
CD−R/CD−RW discs may be damaged
by direct exposure to sunlight, high
temperatures or other storage condi-
tions. The unit may be unable to play
some damaged di
scs.
Titles and other text information re-
corded on CD−R/CD−RW disc may not
be displayed by the MP3/WMA player
(in the case of audio data [CD−DA]).
The MP3/WMA player conforms to the
track skip function of the CD−R/CD−
RW disc.
If you insert a CD−RW disc into the
MP3/WMA player, playback will begin
more slowly than with a conventional
CD or CD−R disc.
Read the precautions accompanying
the CD−R/CD−RW discs before use.
Recordings on CD−R/CD−RW cannot
be played using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system.
