Handle discs carefully, especially when
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
track. (To see a pin hole, hold the disc
up to the light.)
Remove discs from the players when
not in use. Store them in their plastic
cases away from moisture, heat and
direct sunlight.
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
centre to the edge of the disc (not in cir-
cles). Dry it with another soft, lint-free
cloth. Do not use a conventional record
cleaner or anti-static device.
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and
WMA (Windows Media Audio) are
audio compression 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 appropriate
file extensions.
The MP3/WMA player can play only
the first session when using multi-ses-
sion compatible CDs.
NOTICE
Do not use special shaped, transpar-
ent/translucent, low quality or labeled
discs such as those shown in the illus-
trations. The use of such discs may
damage the player, or it may be
impossible to eject the disc.
This system is not designed for use of
Dual Discs. Do not use Dual Discs
because they may cause damage to
the player.
Do not use discs with a protection
ring. The use of such discs may dam-
age the player, or it may be impossi-
ble to eject the disc.

MP3 player: MP3 files are compatible
with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver.
2.2 and Ver. 2.3 formats. The unit can-
not display disc title, track title and art-
ist name in other formats.
USB memory: MP3 files are compati-
ble with the ID3 Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1,
Ver. 2.2, Ver. 2.3 and Ver. 2.4 formats.
The unit cannot display track title and
artist name in other formats.
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 and artist name.
The emphasis function is available only
when playing MP3/WMA files
recorded at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz.
MP3 files for MP3 player:
MPEG 1 LAYER 3 — 32, 44.1, 48 kHz
MPEG 2 LSF LAYER 3 — 16, 22.05,
24 kHz
MP3 files for USB memory:
MPEG 1 AUDIO LAYER 2, 3 — 32,
44.1, 48 kHz
MPEG 2 AUDIO LAYER 2, 3 — 16,
22.05, 24 kHz
WMA files for WMA player:
Ver. 7, 8, 9 (9.1/9.2) CBR — 32, 44.1,
48 kHz
WMA files for USB memory:
Ver. 7, 8, 9 (9.1/9.2) CBR — 32, 44.1,
48 kHz
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.MP3 files for MP3 player:
MPEG1 LAYER3 — 32 to 320 kbps
MPEG2 LSF LAYER3 — 8 to 160
kbps
MP3 files for USB memory:
MPEG 1 AUDIO LAYER 3 — 32 to
320 kbps
MPEG 2 AUDIO LAYER 3 — 8 to 160
kbps
WMA files for WMA player:
Ver. 7, 8 CBR — 48 to 192 kbps
Ver. 9 (9.1/9.2) CBR — 48 to 320 kbps
(VBR*)
WMA files for USB memory:
Ver. 9 (9.1/9.2) CBR — 48 to 320 kbps
(VBR*)
*: Variable Bit Rate
The MP3/WMA player does not play
back MP3/WMA files from discs
recorded using packet write data trans-
fer (UDF format). Discs should be
recorded using “pre-mastering” soft-
ware 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
audio player.
The 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
the 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
2 levels of folders.

The play order of the compact disc with
the structure shown above is as follows:
MP3/WMA player: It is possible to
play up to 192 folders or 255 files on
one disc.
USB memory: It is possible to play up
to 3000 folders, 255 files per folder or
9999 files in the device.
The order changes depending on the
personal computer and MP3/WMA
encoding software you use.
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
depending on the application settings
and the environment. Record with thecorrect 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 discs.
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.
Recordings on CD-R/CD-RW cannot
be played using the DDCD (Double
Density CD) system.
This is a general term that describes the
process of writing data on-demand to
CD-R, etc., in the same way that data is
written to floppy or hard discs.
This is a method of embedding track-
related information in an MP3 file. This
embedded information can include the
track title, the artist’s name, the album
title, the music genre, the year of pro-
duction, comments and other data. The
contents can be freely edited using soft-
ware with ID3 tag editing functions.
Although the tags are restricted to a
number of characters, the information
can be viewed when the track is played
back.
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 and artist name.This is the international standard for the
formatting of CD-ROM folders and
files. For the ISO 9660 format, there
are 2 levels of regulations.
Level 1: The file name is in 8.3 format
(8 character file names, with a 3 charac-
ter file extension. File names must be
composed of one-byte capital letters
and numbers. The “_” symbol may also
be included.)
Level 2: The file name can have up to
31 characters (including the separation
mark “.” and file extension). Each
folder must contain fewer than 8 hierar-
chies.
Playlists created using “WINAMP”
software have a playlist file extension
(.m3u).
MP3 is an audio compression standard
determined by a working group
(MPEG) of the ISO (International Stan-
dard Organization). MP3 compresses
audio data to about 1/10 the size of that
on conventional discs.
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an
audio compression format developed
by Microsoft
®. It compresses files into
a size smaller than that of MP3 files.
The decoding formats for WMA files
are Ver. 7, 8 and 9.

TONE AND BALANCE
How good an audio program sounds
is largely determined by the mix of
the treble, mid and bass levels. In
fact, different kinds of music and vo-
cal programs usually sound better
with different mixes of treble, mid
and bass.
A good balance of the left and right
stereo channels and of the front and
rear sound levels is also important.
Keep in mind that when listening to
a stereo recording or broadcast,
changing the right/left balance will
increase the volume of 1 group of
sounds while decreasing the volume
of another.
