GENERAL INFORMATION

CD player and CD handling

• Do not touch the lens A of the CD player.

• Do not expose the unit, batteries or CDs to humidi- ty, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

• You can clean the CD player with soft, slightly dampened, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agent as it may have a cor- rosive effect.

To clean the CD, wipe it in a straight line from the center toward the edge using soft, lint-free cloth. The cleaning agent may damage the disc! Never write on a CD or attach a sticker to it.

The lens may cloud over when the unit is moved suddenly from cold to warm surroundings. In that case, playing a CD is not possible. Leave the CD player in a warm environment until the moisture has evaporated.

Active mobile phones in the vicinity of the CD player may cause malfunctions.

Avoid dropping the unit as this may cause damage.

ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION

All redundant packing material has been omitted. We have done our utmost to make the packaging easily separable into two mono materials: cardboard (box) and polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).

Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if disassembled by a spe- cialized company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packing materials, dead batteries and old equipment.

ABOUT MP3 / WMA

The music compression technology MP3 (MPEG1 Audio Layer 3) and WMA (Windows Media Audio) significantly reduce the digital data of an audio CD while maintaining CD quality sound.

Getting MP3/WMA files: you can either download legal music files from the internet to your computer hard disc, or create such files by converting audio CD files in your computer through appropriate encoder software. (128kbps bit rate or higher is recommended for MP3 files and 96 kbps bit rate for WMA files.)

Creating a MP3/WMA CD: burn the music files from your computer hard disc on a CDR or CDRW using your CD burner. You can use the by-packed EXPANIUM CD-ROM (free MusicMatch Jukebox software) to create your own MP3 CD. For more information, please visit www. musicmatch.com.

Helpful Hints:

Make sure that the file names of the MP3 files end with .mp3 and WMA files end with .wma

Total number of music files and albums: around 350 (with a typical file name length of 20 characters)

The length of file names affects the number of tracks for playback. With short- er file names, more files can be burned on a disc.
