Bluetooth® antennas. People 
with implantable cardiac pace-
makers, cardiac resynchroniza-
tion therapy-pacemakers or 
implantable cardioverter defibril-
lators should maintain a reason-
able distance between 
themselves and the Bluetooth
® 
antennas. The radio waves may 
affect the operation of such 
devices.
●Before using Bluetooth® 
devices, users of any electrical 
medical device other than 
implantable cardiac pacemak-
ers, cardiac resynchronization 
therapy-pacemakers or implant-
able cardioverter  defibrillators 
should consult the manufacturer 
of the device for information 
about its operation under the 
influence of radio waves. Radio 
waves could have unexpected 
effects on the operation of such 
medical devices.

album title, track title and art-
ist name in other formats.
 WMA/AAC files can contain a 
WMA/AAC tag that is used in 
the same way as an ID3 tag. 
WMA/AAC tags carry infor-
mation such as track title and 
artist name.
 The emphasis function is 
available only when playing 
MP3 files.
 This system can play back 
AAC files encoded by iTunes.
 The sound quality of 
MP3/WMA files generally 
improves with higher bit rates. 
 m3u playlists are not compati-
ble with the audio player.
 MP3i (MP3 interactive) and 
MP3PRO formats are not 
compatible with the audio 
player.
 The player is compatible with 
VBR (Variable Bit Rate).
 When playing back files 
recorded as VBR (Variable Bit 
Rate) files, the play time will 
not be correctly displayed if 
the fast forward or reverse 
operations are used.
 It is not possible to check fold-
ers that do not include 
MP3/WMA/AAC files.
 MP3/WMA/AAC files in fold-
ers up to 8 levels deep can be 
played. However, the start of 
playback may be delayed  when using USB memory 
containing numerous levels of 
folders. For this reason, we 
recommend creating USB 
memory with no more than 2 
levels of folders.
 The play order of the USB 
memory with the structure 
shown above is as follows:
 The order changes depending 
on the personal computer and 
MP3/WMA/AAC encoding 
software you use.
