When playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs

•Before playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

•User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD- ReWritable) can be played only if they are already “finalized.”

•This unit supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5 sessions).

•This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.

•Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.

•CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is because the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular discs.

Notes for MP3 files

•The player can only recognize files with “MP3” or “mp3” as the extensions, which can be in any combination of upper and lower case. The file name needs to be up to 20 characters.

•This unit recognizes files and folders on a disc in the following conditions:

–up to 640 MP3 files.

–up to 256 folders (including the root folder).

–up to 8th layers (including the root folder).

•It is recommended that you record your material at a 44.1 kHz sampling rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate.

•Some MP3 files or discs may not be played back because of their characteristics or recording conditions.

•MP3 discs requires a longer readout time than normal discs because of the complexity of the folder/file configuration.

•MP3i and MP3 Pro are not available.
