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 protective seal stuck to the surface.

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

Using these discs under high temperature or high humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc

This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter case—upper/lower).

This unit can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files.

This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed.

This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below:

Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps

Sampling frequency:

48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1)

24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2)

Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/ Level 2, Romeo, Joliet, Windows long file name

The maximum number of characters for file/folder names vary depending on the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters—<.mp3> or <.wma>).

ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters

ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters

Romeo: up to 128 characters

Joliet: up to 64 characters

Windows long file name: up to 128 characters

This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 200 folders, and 8 hierarchical levels.

This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate).

Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after performing the search function.

This unit cannot play back the following files:

MP3 files encoded in MP3i and MP3 PRO format.

MP3 files encoded in an inappropriate format.

MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2.

WMA files encoded in lossless, professional, and voice format.

WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media® Audio.

WMA files copy-protected with DRM.

Files which have data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.

The search function works but search speed is not constant.

Changing the source

If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc).

Next time you select “CD” for the playback source, disc play starts from where it has been stopped previously.

Ejecting a disc

If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, it is automatically inserted into the loading slot again to protect it from dust.

After ejecting a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another disc or press SRC to select another playback source.

General settings—PSM

If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from

“HIGH PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the volume level is set higher than “VOL 30,” the unit automatically changes the volume level to “VOL 30.”
