MP3, WMA and A AC
files
• MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and
refers to an audio compression technology
standard.
• WMA is short for Windows Media
TMAudio
and refers to an audio compression tech-
nology that is developed by Microsoft
Corporation. WMA data can be encoded
by using Windows Media Player version 7
or later.
• AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding
and refers to an audio compression tech-
nology standard.
• With some applications used to encode
WMA files, this unit may not operate cor-
rectly.
• With some applications used to encode
WMA files, album names and other text
information may not be correctly dis-
played.
• This unit allows playback of MP3/ WMA /A AC
files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Disc recordings compatible with level 1
and level 2 of ISO9660 and with the
Romeo and Joliet file system can be
played back.
• MP3/WMA/AAC files are not compatible
with packet write data transfer.
• The maximum number of characters which
can be displayed for a file name, including
the extension (.mp3, .wma, .m4a), is 64 ,
from the first character.
• The maximum number of characters whichcan be displayed for a folder name is 64 .
• In case of files recorded according to the
Romeo file system, only the first 64 char-
acters can be displayed.
• The folder selection sequence for playback
and other operations becomes the writing
sequence used by the writing software.
For this reason, the expected sequence at
the time of playback may not coincide with
the actual playback sequence. However,
there also is some writing software which
permits setting of the playback order.
MP3 additional infor-
mation
• Files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver.
1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 formats for dis-
play of album (disc title), track (track title),
artist (track artist) and comments. Ver. 2.x
of ID3 Tag is given priority when both Ver.
1.x and Ver. 2.x exist.
• The emphasis function is valid only when
MP3 files of 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz frequen-
cies are played back. (16, 22.05, 24, 32,
44.1, 48 kHz sampling frequencies can be
played back.)
• There is no m3u play list compatibility.
• There is no compatibility with the MP3i
(MP3 interactive) or mp3 PRO formats.
• The sound quality of MP3 files generally
becomes better with an increased bit
rates. This unit can play recordings with bit
rates from 32 kbps to 320 kbps, but in
order to be able to enjoy sound of a certain
quality, we recommend using only discs
recorded with a bit rate of at least 128
kbps.
IMPORTANT
•When naming an MP3/
WMA/AAC file, add the cor-
responding filename exten-
sion (.mp3, .wma, .m4a).
•This unit plays back files
with the filename extension
(.mp3, .wma, .m4a) as an
MP3/ WMA /AAC file. To pre-
vent noise and malfunc-
tions, do not use these
extensions for files other than
MP3/WMA/AAC files.

NOTES
•This unit assigns folder
number. The user can not
assign folder numbers.
•It is not possible to check
folders that do not include
MP3/WMA/AAC files. (These
folders will be skipped with-
out displaying the folder
number.)
•MP3/WMA/AAC files in up
to 8 tiers of folders can be
played back. However, there
is a delay in the start of
playback on discs with
numerous tiers. For this rea-
son we recommend creating
discs with no more than 2
tiers.
•It is possible to play back up
to 99 folders on one disc.

CD player and care
• Use only CDs that have either of the
two Compact Disc Digital Audio marks
as shown below.
• Use only normal, round CDs. If you
insert irregular, non-round, shaped CDs
they may jam in the CD player or not
play properly.
• Check all CDs for cracks, scratches or
warping before playing. CDs that have
cracks, scratches or are warped may
not play properly. Do not use such
discs.
• Avoid touching the recorded (non-print-
ed) surface when handling the disc.
• Store discs in their cases when not in
use.
• Keep discs out of direct sunlight and do
not expose the discs to high tempera-
tures.
• Do not attach labels, write on or apply
chemicals to the surface of the discs.• To clean a CD, wipe the disc with a soft
cloth outward from the center.
• If the heater is used in cold weather,
moisture may form on components
inside the CD player. Condensation
may cause the CD player to malfunc-
tion. If you think that condensation is a
problem, turn off the CD player for an
hour or so to allow it to dry out and
wipe any damp discs with a soft cloth
to remove the moisture.
• Road shocks may interrupt CD play-
back.
• Never put a label, tape or scratches on
a disc. These will prevent the disc from
being played.
CD-R and CD-RW discs
• When CD-R/CD-RW discs are used,
playback is possible only for discs
which have been finalized.
• It may not be possible to play back CD-
R/CD-RW discs recorded on a music
CD recorder or a personal computer
because of disc characteristics, scratch-
es or dirt on the disc, or dirt, condensa-
tion, etc,. on the lens of this unit.• Playback of discs recorded on a person-
al computer may not be possible,
depending on the application settings
and the environment. Please record
with the correct format. (For details,
contact the manufacturer of the appli-
cation.)
• Playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs may
become impossible in case of direct
exposure to sunlight, high tempera-
tures, or the storage conditions in the
car.
• Titles and other text information record-
ed on a CD-R/CD-RW disc may not be
displayed by this unit (in the case of
audio data (CD-DA)).
• This unit conforms to the track skip
function of the CD-R/CD-RW disc. The
tracks containing the track skip informa-
tion are skipped automatically (in case
of audio data (CD-DA)).
• If you insert a CD-RW disc into this
unit, time to playback will be longer
than when you insert 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 can not be
played back using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system.
• This unit will not play back SACD
