Playing a disc

While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

This unit can play back only files of the same type which are first detected if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/ WMA files.

This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

Discs are dirty or scratched.

Moisture condensation occurs on the lens inside the unit.

The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written with “Packet Write” method.

There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, etc.).

CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:

Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck to the surface.

Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer.

Using these discs under high temperatures or high humidities may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.
