Notes on CD-R/ CD-RW Disc

•CD-R discs that are recorded using personal computers or other CD-R recorders may not be played on this unit due to the difference in recording platforms.

•Do not affix any type of labels to either side (recordable or labeled side) of a CD-R disc as this may result in the disc malfunctioning.

•To avoid damages to the CD-R disc, do not open the disc compartment door while the disc is being read. This may take more then 30 seconds.

•Do not load an unrecorded CD-R disc into the unit.

Cassettes
