Listening to a CD or MP3/WMA disc
This system can play back a standard CD, CD-R/RW in
the CD format and CD-R/RW with MP3 or WMA files,
but cannot record on them. Some audio CD-R and CD-
RW discs may not be playable due to the state of the
disc or the device that was used for recording.
MP3:
MP3 is a form of compression. It is an acronym which
stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3. MP3 is a type of audio
code which is processed by significant compression
from the original audio source with very little loss in
sound quality.
• This system supports MPEG 1 Layer 3 and VBR files.
• During VBR file playback, time counter in the display
may differ from its actual playback time.
• Bitrate which is supported by MP3 is 32 kbps to 320
kbps.
WMA:
WMA files are Advanced System Format files that
include audio files which are compressed with
Windows Media Audio codec. WMA is developed by
Microsoft as an audio format file for Windows Media
Player.
• “MP3” and “WMA” indicator will light up after the
unit reads information on an MP3 or WMA disc.
• Bitrate which is supported by WMA is 64 kbps to 160
kbps.
CAUTION
• Do not place two discs in one disc tray.
• Do not play discs of special shapes (heart, octagon,
etc). It may cause malfunctions.
• Do not push the disc tray whilst it is moving.
• If the power fails whilst the tray is open, wait until the
power is restored.
• If TV or radio interference occurs during CD operation,
move the unit away from the TV or radio.
• Be sure to place 8 cm disc in the middle of the disc
tray.
• Due to the structure of the disc information, it takes
longer to read an MP3/WMA disc than a normal CD
(approximately 20 to 90 seconds).
