WARNING

CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT means that the laser's construction makes it inherently safe so that the legally prescribed maximum permissible radiation values can never be exceeded.

Caution: Using any equipment or devices other than those described and speciﬁ ed in these operating instructions, or tampering with the unit in any way, can result in dangerous exposure to radiation.

The CRD-37 is able to play CD-R and CD-RW discs containing MP3 or WMA ﬁles.

In MP3 / WMAmode the terms "album" and "ﬁle" are very important. "Album" corresponds to a folder on a PC, "File " to an audio track in MP3 or WMA format. The clock radio reads MP3 or WMA ﬁ les with a maximum of 255

ﬁles per folder. An MP3 or WMA CD may not contain more than 512 ﬁ les or albums in total. MP3 or WMA ﬁ les must be created with an audio sample rate of 44.1kHz (this is normal for ﬁ les created from CD audio content). Both MP3 and WMA ﬁ les may be recorded on to the same media.

When burning CD-R and CD-RWs with audio ﬁ les, various problems may arise which could lead to interference in playback. This can be caused by faulty software or hardware settings in your PC or by the CD being used. Should such problems arise, contact the customer services of your CD burner or software manufacturer or look for relevant information, for example on the internet. When you are making audio CDs, observe all legal guidelines and ensure that the copyright of third parties is not infringed.
