Playing MP3 Audio Files On Portable “USB” Storage Device

Note: The USB port in this system can only read files in MP3 format. It cannot read files in other compressed audio formats such as WMA, AAC, etc.

1.) Turn the system ‘On’as usual.

2.) Press the FUNCTION button repeatedly until the main display shows "CARD – USB".

3.) Connect your portable USB storage device

to the USB Port on the front panel of this system as shown in the illustration.

Note: The portable USB drive can only be connected one way, usually with the printed side facing up. If you have trouble connecting your USB storage device to the

USB port, do not force it. This may damage the connector. Instead turn the device over and try connecting it again.

4.) The player will read the information on the external device and the display will show the total number of “Tracks” and “Albums” on the device.

5.) Press the PLAY/PAUSE button to begin playback.

•Adjust the VOLUME, EQ, and DBBS controls as desired.

•You can skip tracks with the SKIP TUNING "+" or "–" buttons just as you would with a normal CD.

•You can skip albums with the ALBUM/MEM.CH "+" or "–" buttons.

• You may press the MODE button once to enter “Album Search” mode, then press the SKIP TUNING "+" or "–" buttons to search the desired album.

Note: If the album name is not recognized, or if the album was not properly named, the display will show “UNKNOWN”.

6.) Playback will continue until the last track has played and then the display will again show the total number of tracks, albums on the USB device.

Note: If you have finished listening and want to remove your USB device before the music ends, always press the STOP button first and then remove your device. If you remove the device before pressing the STOP button you may cause an electro-static discharge (ESD) condition and this may prevent the device from operating properly until the ESD condition is cleared.
