About MP3 files

MP3, which stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3, is a music file compression format standard. It compresses audio CD data to approximately 1/10 of its original size.

ID3 tag versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 apply to MP3 only. ID3 tag is 15/30 characters (1.0 and 1.1), or 63/126 characters (2.2, 2.3 and 2.4).

When naming an MP3 file, be sure to add the file extension “.mp3” to the file name.

During playback or fast-forward/reverse of a VBR (variable bit rate) MP3 file, elapsed playing time may not display accurately.

Note

If you play a high-bit-rate MP3, such as 320 kbps, sound may be intermittent.About WMA files

WMA, which stands for Windows Media Audio, is a music file compression format standard. It compresses audio CD data to approximately 1/22* of its original size.

WMA tag is 63 characters.

When naming a WMA file, be sure to add the file extension “.wma” to the file name.

During playback or fast-forward/reverse of a VBR (variable bit rate) WMA file, elapsed playing time may not display accurately.

Additional Information
Precautions

If your car has been parked in direct sunlight, allow the unit to cool off before operating it.

Power antenna (aerial) will extend automatically while the unit is operating.

Moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture condensation may occur inside the lenses and display of the unit. Should this occur, the unit will not operate properly. In such a case, remove the disc and wait for about an hour until the moisture has evaporated.

To maintain high sound quality

Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks onto the unit or discs.

Notes on discs

• To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface.

Handle the disc by its edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines

when not in use.

• Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature.

Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a

dashboard/rear tray.

• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky

ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning when
used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.

• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers

attached.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit that are not covered in this manual, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Maintenance
Replacing the lithium battery of the card remote commander

Under normal conditions, the battery will last approximately 1 year. (The service life may be shorter, depending on the conditions of use.)

When the battery becomes weak, the range of the card remote commander becomes shorter. Replace the battery with a new CR2025 lithium battery. Use of any other battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.

Notes on the lithium battery

Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children. Should the battery be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor.

Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good contact.Be sure to observe the correct polarity when installing the battery.

Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers, otherwise a short-circuit may occur.

WARNING

Battery may explode if mistreated.

Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire.

Fuse replacement

When replacing the fuse, be

 

sure to use one matching the

 

amperage rating stated on the

 

original fuse. If the fuse blows,

 

check the power connection

 

and replace the fuse. If the fuse

 

blows again after replacement,

 

there may be an internal

 

malfunction. In such a case,

 

consult your nearest Sony
