b)... Play mode may not be possible when portionsof the

~ functions of Windows Media Player 9 or higher are used.

When a medium containing MP3/WMA data is loaded, the unit checks all the data on the medium. If the medium contains a lot of folders or non-MP3/WMA files, therefore, it takes a long time until the unit starts playing MP3/WMA. In addition, it may take time for the unit to move to the next MP3/WMA file or a Fi[e Search or Folder Search may not be performed smoothly.

~ the. speakers.

Do no attempt to playa medium containing a non-

MP3/WMA file with the MP3/WMA extension.

The unit mistakes non-MP3/WMA files for MP3/WMA data

.as long as they have the MP3/WMA extension.

Do not attempt to playa medium containing non

MP3/WMA playing order

When selected for play, Folder Search, File Search, or for Folder Select, files and folders are accessed in the order in which they were written by the CD writer.

Because of this, the order in which they are expected to be played may not match the order in which they are actually

played. You may be able to set the order in which MP3/WMA are to be played by writing them onto a medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning

with play sequence numbers such as "01" to "99", depending on your CD writer.
