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.
• MP3 and WMA “tracks” (words “file” and “track” are
used interchangeably) are recorded in “folders.”
• When a disc is inserted upside down “PLEASE” and
“EJECT” appear alternately on the display. Press
OPEN then 0 to eject the disc.
• While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or
WMA disc you can only hear intermittent sounds.
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 which are 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 be played 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.
More about this unit
Basic operations
Turning on the power
• By pressing 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 listening to a track
playback will start from where it had been stopped
previously next time you turn on the power.
Tuner operations
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.
M 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 VOL) 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
