QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
Playback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes). Some files supplied with the memory stick
may greatly slow down access to reading
the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the
catalogue time).Delete the files supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the file
structure on the memory stick.
The CD is ejected every time or is not played. The CD is upside down, cannot be read, does
not contain audio files or contains audio files of
a format not recognised by the audio system.
The CD has been recorded in a format that is
not compatible with the player (udf,...).
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating system
not recognised by the audio system.Check that the CD is inserted in the player the
right way up.
Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot
be played if it is too badly damaged.

will not be read by the audio system.
There is a long waiting period following the
insertion of a CD or connection of a USB
