lDo not insert any disc with a peel-off
seal affixed to it.
lThis unit may not be able to play
certain CD-R/CD-RWs made using a
computer or music CD recorder due to
disc characteristics, scratches,
smudges, dirt, etc., or due to dust or
condensation on the lens inside the
unit.
lStoring CDs in the vehicle exposed to
direct sunlight or high temperature may
damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make
them unplayable.
lCD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB
cannot be played.
lThis unit may not be able to play
certain discs made using a computer
due to the application (writing
software) setting used. (For details,
consult the store where the application
was purchased.)
lIt is possible that certain text data, such
as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW
may not be displayed when musical
data (CD-DA) is playing.
lThe period from when a CD-RW is
inserted to when it begins playing is
longer than a normal CD or CD-R.
lCompletely read the instruction manual
and cautions for CD-R/CD-RWs.
lDo not use discs with cellophane tape
adhering, partially peeled off labels, or
adhesive material exuding from the
edges of the CD label. Also, do not use
discs with a commercially-available
CD-R label affixed. The disc may not
eject resulting in a malfunction.

lIf a disc has both music data (CD-DA)
and MP3 files, playback of the two file
types differs depending on how the
disc was recorded.
lPacket written discs cannot be played
on this unit.
lThis unit does not play CDs recorded
using MP3i (MP3 interactive), MP3
PRO and RIFF MP3 formats.
About folders and files
lThe order of hierarchy for MP3 files
and folders during playback or other
functions is from shallow to deep. The
arrangement and playing order of a
recorded disc containing MP3 files is
as follows:
lFile number
A numerical file number is assigned
to each file in a folder starting from
the deepest hierarchy.
lFolder number
A numerical folder number is
assigned to each folder starting from
the deepest hierarchy.
NOTE
Folders and tracks (files) within the same
hierarchy play in the order they were written to
the disc depending on the write software.
05

Folder
No.
Level1
Level2Level3
Level4
Playback may not occur in the above
hierarchy depending on the audio unit.: Track (File) : Folder
lThe folder order is automatically
assigned and this order cannot be
optionally set.
lAny folder without an MP3 file will be
ignored. (It will be skipped and the
folder number will not be displayed.)
lMP3 files not conforming to the MP3
format containing both header frames
and data frames will be skipped and
not played.
lThis unit will play MP3 files that have
up to eight levels. However, the more
levels a disc has, the longer it will take
to initially start playing. It is
recommended to record discs with two
levels or less.
lA single disc with up to 512 files can
be played and a single folder with up to
255 files can be played.
lWhen naming an MP3 file, be sure to
add an MP3 file extension (.mp3) after
the file name.

Specialized glossary
MP3
Abbreviation for“MPEG Audio Layer 3”.
A technical standard for audio
compression as decided by the ISO
*1
MPEG working group. Use of MP3
allows for audio data to be compressed to
approximately a tenth of the source data
size.
*1 International Organization for
Standardization
ISO 9660
An international standard for logical
formatting of CD-ROM files and folders.
It is divided into three separate levels
based on differences in file naming
procedures, data configuration and other
characteristics.Multi-session
A session is the complete amount of data
recorded from the beginning to the end of
a single period of CD-ROM, CD-R/CD-
RW data recording. Multi-session refers to
the existence of data from two or more
sessions on a single disc.
Sampling
Refers to the process of encoding analog
audio data at regular intervals and
converting it to digital data. The sampling
rate refers to the number of times a
sample is taken in one second and is
expressed in Hz units. Increasing the
sampling rate improves the sound quality
but also increases the data size.
Bit rate
Refers to the volume of data per second,
expressed in bps (bits per second).
Generally, the larger the number of the
transfer bit rate when compressing an
MP3 file, the more information regarding
musical reproduction it carries, and
therefore the better the sound quality.
Packet writing
A general term for the method, similar to
that used for floppy discs or hard drives,
of recording the required file in a single
increment on a CD-R and similar.
ID3 Tag
ID3 tag is a method for storing
information related to the music in an
MP3 file. Information such as track, artist
and album name can be stored. This
content can be freely edited using ID3
editing function software.

VBR
Abbreviation for Variable Bit Rate. While
CBR (Constant Bit Rate) is generally
used, VBR varies the bit rate for audio
compression according to compression
conditions and this allows for
compression with preference given to
sound quality.
qOperating Tips for WMA
WMA is short for Windows Media Audio
and is the audio compression format used
by Microsoft.
Audio data can be created and stored at a
higher compression ratio than MP3.
* Microsoft and Windows Media are
registered trademarks of Microsoft
Corporation U.S. in the United States
and other countries.
Playable WMA files are as follows:
Item Content
SpecificationVer 7.0, 8.0, 9.0

CAUTION
This unit plays files with the (.wma)
file extension as a WMA file. Do not
use the WMA file extension for files
other than WMA files. Otherwise, it
could result in noise or a
malfunction.
lTrack, artist and album name
information is recorded as data termed
“WMA-Tag”, and this information is
displayable.
lWMA files written under specifications
other than the indicated specification
may not play normally or files or folder
names may not display correctly.
lThe file extension may not be provided
depending on the computer operating
system, version, software, or settings.
In this case, add the file extension
“.wma”to the end of the file name, and
then write it to the disc.
qOperating Tips for AAC
Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is
standardized voice compression
established by the ISO
*1working group
(MPEG). Audio data can be created and
stored at a higher compression ratio than
MP3.
*1 International Organization for
Standardization

lMusic data (MP3/WMA/AAC (.m4a)
format) stored in a USB mass-storage class
compliant device (such as USB flash
memory) can be played.
lPlayback may not be possible depending on
the type and condition of the USB flash
memory even if the audio file complies with
the standard above.
lA copyright protected WMA/AAC file
cannot be played in this unit.
