Before Use

Read this before operations.

<When the unit is turned on, switching on the TV may cause lines to appear on the TV screen, depending on the condition of the electric waves of the TV broadcast. This is not malfunction in the unit or the TV. In this case, turn off the unit.

<As the unit may become warm during operation, always leave sufficient space around the unit for ventilation.

<The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage as printed on the rear panel. If you are in any doubt regarding this matter, consult an electrician.

<Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibrations and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.

<Do not place the unit on an amplifier/receiver.

<Do not open the cabinet as this might result in damage to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a foreign object should get into the set, contact your dealer or service agency.

<When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.

<Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

<Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

MP3 and WMA

<This unit can play MP3 files recorded in various external USB storage devices such as USB flash memory, MP3 player or HDD. The HDD must be formatted FAT 16 or FAT 32, but not NTFS.

<When more than 2000 files are recorded on the USB memory, the unit might not be able to play them correctly.

<File names of MP3 or WMA should be alphanumeric characters. This unit cannot display symbols and full-size or double-byte characters (such as Japanese, Chinese, etc.) correctly. Also, be sure to use the file extension. (“.mp3” for MP3 files, “.wma” for WMA files.)

<MP3 files are mono or stereo MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 format. This unit can play MP3 files with sampling frequency 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz, bit-rate 320 kbps or less.

<This unit can play WMA files with sampling frequency 44.1 kHz, bit-rate 192 kbps or less.

WMA means Windows Media Audio.

<Audio encoded at 128 kbps should sound close to regular audio CD quality. Although this player will play lower bit-rate MP3 songs, the sound quality becomes noticeably worse at lower bit- rates.
