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.
CD-R/CD-RW discs th at have not been
subject to the “finalizing process” (a pro-
cess 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 person al computer depend-
ing on the application settings and the envi-
ronment. Record with the correct format.
(For details, contact the appropriate appli-
cation manufacturers of the applications.)
CD-R/CD-RW discs may be damaged by
direct exposure to sunlight, high tempera-
tures or other storage conditions. The unit
may be unable to play some damaged
discs.
If you insert a CD-RW disc into the 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

■CORRESPONDING SAMPLING

■ CORRESPONDING BIT RATES
(Variable Bit Rate (VBR) compatible)
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3), WMA
(Windows Media Audio) and AAC
(Advanced Audio Coding) are audio com-
pression standards.
This system can play MP3/WMA/AAC
files on CD-R, CD-RW discs and USB
memory.
This system 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/WMA/AAC file,
add an appropriate file extension (.mp3/
.wma/.m4a).
This system plays back files with .mp3/
.wma/.m4a file extensions as MP3/WMA/
AAC files respectively. To prevent noise
and playback errors, use the appropriate
file extension.
This system can play only the first session
when using multi-session compatible CDs.
MP3 files are compatible with the ID3 Tag
Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2 and Ver. 2.3 for-
mats. This system cannot display disc title,
track title and artist name in other formats.
WMA/AAC files can contain a WMA/
AAC tag that is used in the same way as an
ID3 tag. WMA/AAC tags carry informa-
tion 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.
This system can play back AAC files
encoded by iTunes.
The sound quality of MP3/WMA files gen-
erally 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.
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 (Vari-
able Bit Rate).
When playing back files recorded as VBR
(Variable Bit Rate) files, the play time will
not be correctly displa yed if the fast for-
ward or reverse op erations are used.
It is not possible to check folders that do not
include MP3/WMA/AAC files.
MP3/WMA/AAC files in folders up to 8
levels deep can be played. However, the
start of playback may be delayed when
using discs containing numerous levels of
folders. For this reason, we recommend
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:
The order changes depending on the per-
sonal computer and MP3/WMA/AAC
encoding software you use.
