Restrictions and instructions
Contamination, exposure to high tempera-
tures and mechanical damage may render a
data medium unusable. Please observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
Variations in the quality of data media pro-
duced by different manufacturers can lead to
problems during playback.
Please observe copyright laws. The unit may be unable to read individual
track
s or the entire data medium due to the

tion about the best ways to create audio files
and data media (compression rate, ID3 tag
etc.) can be found on the Internet.
The reading time may vary considerably de-
pending on the condition of the data medium

ture and file type. Playlists only determine a certain playing or-
der.
