To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs and mechanism clean.

Handling discs

•Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing the center hole lightly.

•Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.

•Put the disc back in its case after use.

•Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case.

•Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

To clean the disc:

•Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

Cleaning the System

• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System is

heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted

neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a

dry cloth.

• Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become

damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the

following:

Basic and Common Operations (see page 3)

•Pressing one of the source buttons also turns on the System and starts playing back if the source is ready or connected.

•To cancel the display demonstration momentarily, press and hold DEMO while the System is turned on, until “DEMO OFF” appears. Disconnecting and reconnecting the power plug will start the display demonstration again.

Playing Back a Disc (see page 4)

• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.

• For MP3/WMA playback...

– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used

for MP3/WMA operations.

– This System can show the Tag data (Version 1).

– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than

regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/

file configuration.)

– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be

skipped. This result from their recording processes and

conditions.

– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or

Level 2 for the disc format.

– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the

extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the

Setting the Clock and Using Timers (see page 6)

•You can set the clock and Daily Timer while the System is turned on. While setting the clock or Daily Timer, the display is turning on.

•The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If this happens, readjust the clock.

•When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure occurs, the clock and the timer will be canceled. You need to set the clock first, then the timer again.

Timer Priority:

•If you activate the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.

When the iPod touches the unit, attach the protection sheet (supplied) to the panel of the unit.

•Use the Dock adapter (supplied with your iPod or to be purchased) when connecting an iPod.

•When you close the direct dock, remove the dock adapter.

•Be sure to reduce the volume on the System to the minimum level before connecting an iPod. Adjust the volume after starting playback.

•DO NOT connect or disconnect the iPod when the System is turned on.

•You cannot send any data to your iPod from the System.

•Do not carry the System with the iPod connected. You might drop it or it might cause damages to the iPod dock.

•Do not touch or hit the iPod terminal pins or connector pins in the iPod dock directly. It might cause damages to the connector part.

•Before viewing a video/picture from your iPod on your monitor, make the appropriate video setting on the iPod. For details of the setting, see the instruction manual for iPod.

– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a

sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This

System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than

64 kbps.

– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from

the one you have intended while recording. If a folder

does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are ignored.

• This System can recognize up to 255 groups in a disc. The

total number of groups and tracks (in a disc) that can be

recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/WMA).

•Sound distortion may occur when playing back audio sources with high recording levels. When distortion occurs, it is recommended to turn off the equalizer of the iPod. For information on operating the iPod, see the iPod instruction manual.
