Notes on CD-Rs/RWs

¡You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

¡CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside a car for extended periods may damage and make playback impossible.

¡Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.

¡This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed.

¡This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA data or MP3.

¡Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc for handling it.

Recording MP3 files on a CD-media

¡You are recommended to minimize the chances of making a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3 files.

¡If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or files, the songs may not play in the intended order, or some songs may not play at all.

¡Do not record files other than MP3 files and unnecessary folder on a disc.

¡The name of MP3 file should be added by rules as shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the rules of each file system.

¡You may encounter trouble in playing MP3 files or displaying the information of MP3 files recorded with certain writing software or CD recorders.
