Disc Notes—Continued

The following ID3 tags are supported: versions 1.0/1.1 and 2.2/2.3/2.4. Versions 2.5 and later are not supported. Normally, version 2.2/2.3/2.4 tags have priority and will be displayed regardless of the ID3 VER 1 preference on page 32.

For ID3 version 2 tags, the tag information recognized will be those embedded in the beginning of the file. We recommend that you include only title, artist name, and album name information in ID3 tags. Com- pressed, encrypted, and unsynchronized ID3 tags can- not be displayed.

Notes:

With CD-ROM, CD-R, and CD-RW discs that contain many files and folders, and files other than MP3s, it may take a long time to read the disc. We recommend that you include only MP3 files on your discs, use about 20 folders, and limit folder nesting to three lev- els deep.

In this manual, MP3 files are referred to as tracks. Also, folders (directories) are referred to as groups.

Handling Discs

Never touch the underside of a disc. Always hold discs by the edge, as shown.

Underside

Never attach adhesive tape or sticky labels to discs.

Cleaning Discs

For best results, keep your discs clean. Fingerprints and dust can affect the sound quality and should be removed as follows. Using a clean soft cloth, wipe from the center outwards, as shown. Never wipe in a circular direction.

To remove stubborn dust or dirt, wipe the disc with a damp soft cloth, and then dry it with a dry cloth.

Never use solvent-based cleaning fluids, such as thin- ner or benzine, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic sprays intended for vinyl records, because they may damage the disc.

Storing Discs

Don’t store discs in places subject to direct sunlight, or near heat sources.

Don’t store discs in places subject to moisture or dust, such as in a bathroom or near a humidifier.

Always store discs in their cases and vertically. Stack- ing, or putting objects on unprotected discs may cause warping, scratches, or other damage.
