Maintenance
How to clean the connectors
Frequent detachment will deteriorate the
connectors.
To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe
the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth
moistened with alcohol, being careful not to
damage the connectors.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the
CD player in the following cases:
• After starting the heater in the car.
• If it becomes very humid inside the car.
Should this occur, the CD player may
malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until
the moisture evaporates.
How to handle discs
When removing a disc from
its case, press down the center
holder of the case and lift the
disc out, holding it by the edges.
• Always hold the disc by the
edges. Do not touch its recording surface.
When storing a disc into its case, gently insert
the disc around the center holder (with the
printed surface facing up).
• Make sure to store discs into the cases after
use.
Center holder
To keep discs clean
A dirty disc may not play correctly.
If a disc does become dirty, wipe it
with a soft cloth in a straight line
from center to edge.
• Do not use any solvent (for example,
conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner,
benzine, etc.) to clean discs.
To play new discs
New discs may have some rough
spots around the inner and outer
edges. If such a disc is used, this
unit may reject the disc.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges
with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

not be recommended.
General
• This unit has been desi ned to reproduce
CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/
CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA),
MP3 and WMA formats.
• MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file”
and “track” are used interchan eably) are
recorded in “folders.”
• When a disc has been loaded, selectin
“DISC” for the playback source starts disc
play.
Inserting a disc
• When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc
automatically ejects.
• Do not insert 8 cm discs (sin le CD) and
unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.) into
the loadin slot.
Playing a disc

intermittent sounds.
More about this unit
Basic operations
Turning on the power
• By pressin SOURCE 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 listenin to a
disc, disc play will start from where playback
has been stopped previously, next time you
turn on the power.
Tuner operations
Storing stations in memory
• Durin SSM search...
– All previously stored stations are erased and
stations are stored newly.
– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest
frequency) to No. 6 (hi hest frequency).
– When SSM is over, the station stored in
No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.
• When storin a station manually, the
previously preset station is erased when a new
station is stored in the same preset number.
F RDS operations
• Network-Trackin Reception requires
two types of RDS si nals—PI (Pro ramme
Identification) and AF (Alternative
Frequency) to work correctly. Without
receivin these data correctly, Network-
Trackin Reception will not operate correctly.
• If a Traffic Announcement is received by
TA Standby Reception, the volume level
automatically chan es to the preset level (TA
VOL) if the current level is lower than the
preset level.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW
• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.
• This unit can play back only files of the sa e
type which are first detected if a disc includes
both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/
WMA files.
• This unit can play back ulti-session discs;
however, unclosed sessions will be skipped
while playing.
• So e CD-Rs or CD-RWs ay not play
back on this unit because of their disc
characteristics, or for the following reasons:
– Discs are dirty or scratched.
– Moisture condensation occurs on the lens
inside the unit.
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
– CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are
written with “Packet Write” ethod.
– There are i proper recording conditions
( issing data, etc.) or edia conditions
(stained, scratched, warped, etc.).
• CD-RWs ay require a longer readout ti e
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 protective seal
stuck to the surface.
– Discs on which labels can be directly
printed by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high te peratures or
high hu idities ay cause alfunctions or
da age to the unit.
Playing an MP3/WMA disc
• This unit can play back MP3/WMA files
with the extension code <. p3> or <.w a>
(regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).
• This unit can show the na es of albu s,
artists (perfor er), and ID3 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

the actual elapsed ti e. Especially, after
perfor ing the search function, this
difference beco es noticeable.

Changing the source
• If you change the source, playback also stops
(without ejecting the disc).
Next time you select “DISC” for the playback
source, disc play starts from where it has been
stopped previously.
Ejecting a disc
• If the ejected disc is not removed within
15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted
again into the loading slot to protect it from
dust. (Disc will not play this time.)
eneral settings—PSM
• If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from
“HIGH PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the
volume level is set higher than “VOL 30,” the
unit automatically changes the volume level to
“VOL 30.”

Symptoms Remedies/Causes
MP3/WMA playback
• Disc cannot be played back. • Use a disc with MP3/WMA tracks recorded in
the format compliant with ISO 9660 Level 1,
Level 2, Romeo, or Joliet.
• Add the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> to
the file names.
• Noise is generated. Skip to another track or change the disc. (Do not
add the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> to non-
MP3 or WMA tracks.)
• A longer readout time is required
(“CHECK” keeps flashing on the
display).
Do not use too many hierarchies and folders.
• Tracks do not play back in the order
you have intended them to play.
Playback order is determined when the files are
recorded.
• Elapsed playing time is not correct. This sometimes occurs during play. This is caused
by how the tracks are recorded on the disc.
• “NO FILES” appears on the display. Insert a disc that contains MP3/WMA tracks.
• Correct characters are not displayed
(e.g. album name).
This unit can only display alphabets (upper case),
numbers, and a limited number of symbols.
• Microsoft and Windows Media are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Microsoft
Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.
