Playing Back CD

This unit has been designed to play back the following CDs: Audio CD, CD-R, and CD-RW.

Continued use of irregular shape CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs (Rewritable) can be played back only if they are already “finalized.”

•You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded in music CD format. (However, they may not be played back depending on their characteristics or recording conditions.)

•Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

•Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.

•CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. (This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.)
