6. TIPS FOR OPERATING THE AUDIO SYSTEM
AUDIO SYSTEM

To clean a disc:  Wipe  it  with  a  soft,  lint-
free  cloth  that  has  been  dampened  with
water. Wipe in a straight line from the cen-
ter  to  the  edge  of  the  disc  (not  in  circles).
Dry  it  with  another  sof t,  lint-free  cloth.  Do
not  use  a  conventional  record  cleaner  or
anti-static device.
 CD-R/CD-RW  discs  that  have  not  been
subject  to  the  “finalizing  process”  (a  pro-
cess  that  allows  discs  to  be  played  on  a
conventional  CD  player)  cannot  be
played.
 It  may  not  be  possible  to  play  CD-R/CD-
RW  discs  recorded  on  a  music  CD
recorder  or  a  personal  computer  because
of disc characteristics, scratches or dirt on
the  disc,  or  dirt,  condensation,  etc.  on  the
lens of the unit.
 It  may  not  be  possible  to  play  discs
recorded on a personal computer depend-
ing  on  the  application  settings  and  the
environment.  Record  with  the  correct  for-
mat.  (For  details,  contact  the  appropriate
application  manufacturers  of  the  applica-
tions.)
 CD-R/CD-RW  discs  may  be  damaged  by
direct  exposure  to  sunlight,  high  tempera-
tures or other storage conditions. The unit
may  be  unable  to  play  some  damaged
discs.
 If you insert a CD-RW disc into the player,
playback  will  begin  more  slowly  than  with
a conventional CD or CD-R disc.
 Recordings  on  CD-R/CD-RW  cannot  be
played  using  the  DDCD  (Double  Density
CD) system.

(Variable Bit Rate (VBR) compatible)
MP3  (MPEG  Audio  Layer  3),  WMA
(Windows  Media  Audio)  and  AAC
(Advanced Audio  Coding)  are  audio  com-
pression standards.
 This system can play MP3/WMA/AAC files
on CD-R, CD-RW discs and USB memory.
 This system can play disc recordings com-
patible  with  ISO  9660  level  1  and  level  2
and with the Romeo and Joliet file system.
 When naming an MP3/WMA/AAC file, add
an  appropriate  file  extension  (.mp3/.wma/
.m4a). 
 This  system  plays  back  files  with  .mp3/
.wma/.m4a  file  extensions  as  MP3/WMA/
AAC  files  respectively.  To  prevent  noise
and  playback  errors,  use  the  appropriate
file extension.
 This system can play onl y the first session
when using multi-session compatible CDs.
 MP3 files are compatible with the ID3 Tag
Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2 and Ver. 2.3 for-
mats.  This  system  cannot  display  disc
title, track title and artist name in other for-
mats.
 WMA/AAC  files  can  contain  a  WMA/AAC
tag that is used in the same way as an ID3
tag.  WMA/AAC  tags  carry  information
such as track title and artist name.
 The  emphasis  function  is  available  only
when  playing  MP3/WMA  files  recorded  at
32, 44.1 and 48 kHz.
 This  system  can  play  back  AAC  files
encoded by iTunes.
 The  sound  quality  of  MP3/WMA  files  gen-
erally  improves  with  higher  bit  rates.  In
order  to  achieve  a  reasonable  level  of
sound  quality,  discs  recorded  with  a  bit
rate  of  at  least  128  kbps  are  recom-
mended.
 The  MP3/WMA  player  does  not  play  back
MP3/WMA files from discs recorded using
packet  write  data  transfer  (UDF  format).
Discs should be recorded using “pre-mas-
tering”  software  rather  than  packet-write
software.
 M3u  playlists  are  not  compatible  with  the
audio player.
 MP3i  (MP3  interactive)  and  MP3PRO  for-
mats  are  not  compatible  with  the  audio
player.

tion etc. in the place of the “<>”.
For example: Say  “West 555”.
●Inputting  the  house  number  can  be
skipped.
● Even if the state set using voice recogni-
tion  is  different  from  the  set  state  in  the
“Address” screen (which was set when a
destination  was  set  manually),  the  set
state  in  the  “Address”  screen  will  not

nected  to  enable  track  searching  and
playback. ( P.97, 101)
● When  a  USB  memory  or  iPod  is  con-
nected,  recognition  data  is  created  so
tracks  can  be  searched  using  voice
commands.
● Recognition  data  is  updated  under  the
following conditions:
• When  the  USB  memory  or  iPod  data
has changed.
• When  the  voice  recognition  language is changed. ( P. 5 4 )
● While  the  recognition  data  is  being  cre-
ated  or  being  updated,  a  track  search
