NOTES ON MP3 AND WMA PLAYBACK

•The player is only compatible with standard MP3- and WMA-encoded discs. Other compressed audio formats used for Internet audio downloads will not play.

•Due to the differences in various versions of the MP3 and WMA formats, and the many differences between the CD-R machines used to record discs on a computer, it is possible that some discs, memory cards or other blank media may not play, even though they will work on a computer. This is normal and does not indicate a fault with the unit.

•If a disc containing MP3, WMA and/or JPEG files is created in more than one session, the player may not recognize files added during the later sessions, especially if the disc was finalized after the first session.

•When a disc with multiple folders is playing, only tracks from one folder can be displayed and played at a time. Select the desired folder and press the Play Button 4G or

OK Button 6 to start the first track.

To see and play tracks from other folders, you must first select the root folder using the KL Navigation Buttons 9, and press the OK Button 6 to open or close that fold- er. You may then navigate an open folder and select the desired folder. Press the OK Button 6 to open the folder, and select the desired track. Then press the Play Button 4G.

•Only stereo audio playback is available for MP3 and WMA discs.
