refers to an external bus standard supporting
data transfer rates of 12 Mbps.
•This unit is compatible with USB 1.1/2.0 with
maximum data transfer rates of 12 Mbps.
•USB memory devices that can be played by
connecting to the unit's USB cable are limited
to those recognized as "USB mass storage
class devices"; operation is not guaranteed
with all USB memory devices.
'" Devices compatible with "USB Mass Storage
Class" can be used merely by connecting to the
host device, without need for special drivers or
application software.
•Consult the manufacturerof your USB memory
device for information regarding whether it
is supported by "USB Mass Storage Class"
standards.
•Audio files playable on this unit are limited to
MP3IWMAlAAC files.
• To prevent the accidental loss of data, always
back up important data on your computer.
•This unitdoes not supportconnectionsto acom-
puter. In addition, connections made through a
USB hub device are also not supported.
•When aUSB memory device is composed of
two or more drives, only one of the drives will
be detected.

sion to about 10 percent of its initial size with a
high sound quality. This means that several mu-
sic CDs can be recorded on aUSB memory de-
vice to allow along listening time"'.
