• Sound distortion may occur when playing back audio

sources with high recording levels. When distortion occurs,
it is recommended to turn off the equalizer of the iPod. For
information on operating the iPod, see the iPod instruction
manual.

To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs
and mechanism clean.

Handling discs
• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge

while pressing the center hole lightly.

• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when

placing it back in its case.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes,

and moisture.

To clean the disc:
• Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center

to edge.

Cleaning the System
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System is

heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted
neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a
dry cloth.

• Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become

damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the
following:

– DO NOT wipe it hard.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides

to it.

– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact

for a long time.

Basic and Common Operations

(see page 3)

• Pressing one of the source buttons also turns on the System

and starts playing back if the source is ready or connected.

Playing Back a Disc

(see page 4)

• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used

for MP3/WMA operations.

– This System can show the Tag data (Version 1).
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than

regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/
file configuration.)

– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be

skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.

– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or

Level 2 for the disc format.

– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the

extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the
letter case—upper/lower).

– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at a

sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps. This
System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less than
64 kbps.

– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from

the one you have intended while recording. If a folder
does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are ignored.

• This System can recognize up to 255 groups in a disc. The

total number of groups and tracks (in a disc) that can be
recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/WMA).
