Notes

•The unit can playback audio data recorded on CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-Text discs as well, however the text information of CD- Text discs cannot be displayed.

•If a CD-R or CD-RW has been recorded using a personal com- puter, playback is only possible if the disc is recorded in the CD- Digital Audio format.

•You can play CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in the music CD format.

Some of them, however, may not be played depending on the disc characteristics or recording condition.

•Do not use a CD-R or CD-RW disc that has been recorded in any format other than the music CD format or a CD-RW disc that has been used in any format other than the music CD format with this unit. Using such a disc with this unit may cause loud sound to damage the speakers or cause hearing disorder.

Notes on playing unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW discs with the 3-CD changer

•It will take some time before play starts.

•CD-R or CD-RW discs of short recording time may not be played.

•An unfinalized CD-RW may not be played properly. For example, sound files that you have deleted may be played. In such a case, finalize the disc first or use the CDR of this unit for play.

Do not use irregularly shaped CDs.

CDs of the sort can damage the unit.
