  Basic operations
Turning on the power
•  By pressing SRC on the unit, you can also turn on the 
power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.
Turning off the power
•  If you turn off the power while listening to a track, 
playback will start from where it had been stopped 
previously next time you turn on the power.
  FM/AM/RDS
Storing stations in memory
•  During SSM search...
  –  All previously stored stations are erased and the 
stations are stored anew.
  –  Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest 
frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).
  –  When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will 
be automatically tuned in.
•  When storing a station manually, the previously 
preset station is erased when a new station is stored 
in the same preset number.
FM RDS operations
•  Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of 
RDS signals—PI (Programme Identification) and AF 
(Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without 
receiving these data correctly, Network-Tracking 
Reception will not operate correctly.
•  If a Traffic Announcement is received by TA Standby 
Reception, the volume level automatically changes 
to the preset level (TA VOLUME) if the current level is 
lower than the preset level.
•  When Alternative Frequency Reception is activated 
(with AF selected), Network-Tracking Reception is 
also activated automatically.
•  If you want to know more about RDS, visit 
.
  Disc operations
Caution for DualDisc playback
•  The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply 
with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. 
Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on 
this product may not be recommended.
General
•  This unit has been designed to reproduce 
CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs 
(Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA 
formats.
•  When a disc is inserted upside down, “PLEASE” and 
“EJECT” appear alternately on the display. Press 
0 to 
eject the disc.
•  In this manual, words “track” and “file” are 
interchangeably used.
•  While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or 
WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.
•  If you change the source while listening to a disc, 
playback stops.
  Next time you select “CD” as the playback source, 
playback will start from where it had been stopped 
previously.
•  After ejecting a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you 
cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another 
disc or press SRC to select another playback source.
•  If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, 
it is automatically inserted into the loading slot again 
to protect it from dust. Playback starts automatically.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW
•  Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
•  This unit can only play back files of the same type as 
those detected first if a disc includes both audio CD 
(CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.
•  This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, 
unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.
•  Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this 
unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the 
following reasons:
  –  Discs are dirty or scratched.
  –  Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens 
inside the unit.
  –  The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
  –  The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the 
“Packet Write” method.
  –  There are improper recording conditions (missing 
data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, 
warped, etc.).
•  CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the 
reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular 
CDs.
•  Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
  –  Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck 
to the surface.
  –  Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an 
ink jet printer.
  Using these discs under high temperature or high 
humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the 
unit.
Playing an MP3/WMA disc
•  This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the 
extension code  or  (regardless of 
the letter case—upper/lower).
•  This unit can show the names of albums, artists 
(performer), and Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 
2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files.
•  This unit can display only one-byte characters. No 
other characters can be correctly displayed.•  This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the 
conditions below:
  –  Bit rate of MP3: 32 kbps — 320 kbps
  –  Sampling frequency of MP3:
    48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1)
    24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2)
  –  Bit rate of WMA: 
    32 kbps — 192 kbps 
  –  Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/Level 2, Romeo, 
Joliet, Windows long file name
•  The maximum number of characters for file/folder 
names vary depending on the disc format used 
(includes 4 extension characters— or 
).
  –  ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters
  –  ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters
  –  Romeo *: up to 128 characters
  –  Joliet *: up to 64 characters
  –  Windows long file name *: up to 128 characters
* The parenthetic figure is the maximum number of 
characters for file/folder names in case the total 
number of files and folders is 271 or more.
•  This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 
200 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.
•  This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable 
bit rate).
  Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the 
elapsed time display, and do not show the actual 
elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes 
noticeable after performing the search function.
•  This unit cannot play back the following files:
  –  MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format.
  –  MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format.
  –  MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2.
  –  WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and 
voice format.
  –  WMA files which are not based upon Windows 
Media ® Audio.
  –  WMA files copy-protected with DRM.
  –  Files which have data such as AIFF, ATRAC3, etc.
•  The search function works but search speed is not 
constant.
