More about this receiver

Turning on the power
By pressing CD or FM/AM on the receiver, you can also turn on the power. This receiver has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/ CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA format. When a disc has been loaded, selecting CD for the playback source starts disc play.

Turning off the power

If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start from where playback has been stopped previously, next time you turn on the power.

Inserting a disc
When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc automatically ejects. Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CD) and unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.) into the loading slot.

Tuner operations
Storing stations in memory
During SSM search... All previously stored stations are erased and stations are stored newly. Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency). When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will be automatically tuned in. When storing a station manually, a previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

Playing a disc
While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

Use only finalized CD-Rs or CD-RWs. This receiver can play back only the files of the same type which is first detected if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files. This receiver can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing. Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this receiver because of their disc characteristics, and for the following causes: Discs are dirty or scratched. Moisture condensation occurs on the lens inside the receiver. The pickup lens inside the receiver is dirty. CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written with Packet Write method. There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stain, scratch, warp, etc.). CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs. To be continued.... 25

FM RDS operations
Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of RDS signalsPI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without receiving these data correctly, NetworkTracking Reception will not operate. If a Traffic Announcement is received, the volume level (TA Volume) automatically changes to the preset level.

More about this receiver

Turning on the power
By pressing CD or FM/AM on the receiver, you can also turn on the power. When a disc is inserted upside down, the disc automatically ejects. Do not insert 8 cm discs (single CD) and unusual shape discs (heart, flower, etc.) into the loading slot.

Turning off the power

If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc play will start from where playback has been stopped previously, next time you turn on the power.

Playing a disc
While fast-forwarding or reversing on an MP3 or WMA disc, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

Tuner operations
Storing stations in memory
During SSM search... All previously stored stations are erased and stations are stored newly. Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency). When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will be automatically tuned in. When storing a station manually, a previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

Use only finalized CD-Rs or CD-RWs. This receiver can play back only the files of the same type which is first detected if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files. This receiver can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing. Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this receiver because of their disc characteristics, and for the following causes: Discs are dirty or scratched. Moisture condensation occurs on the lens inside the receiver. The pickup lens inside the receiver is dirty. CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are written with Packet Write method. There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stain, scratch, warp, etc.). CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs. Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs: Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal stuck to the surface. Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer. Using these discs under high temperatures or high humidities may cause malfunctions or damages to discs.

FM RDS operations
Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of RDS signalsPI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) to work correctly. Without receiving these data correctly, NetworkTracking Reception will not operate. If a Traffic Announcement is received, the volume level (TA Volume) automatically changes to the preset level.

Disc operations
General
This receiver has been designed to reproduce CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/ CD-RWs (Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA format. When a disc has been loaded, selecting CD for the playback source starts disc play.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc

This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files with the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the letter caseupper/lower). This receiver can show the names of albums, artists (performer), and ID3 Tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for MP3 files and for WMA files. This receiver can handle only one-byte characters. No other characters can be correctly displayed. This receiver can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the conditions below: Bit rate: 8 kbps 320 kbps Sampling frequency: 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1) 24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2) Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/ Level 2, Romeo, Joliet, Windows long file name The maximum number of characters for file/ folder names vary among the disc format used (includes 4 extension characters<.mp3> or <.wma>). ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters ISO 9660 Level 2: up to 31 characters Romeo*: up to 128 (72) characters Joliet*: up to 64 (36) characters Windows long file name*: up to 128 (72) characters * The parenthetic figure is the maximum number of characters for file/folder names in case the total number of files and folders is 313 or more. This receiver can recognize the total of 512 files, of 200 folders, and of 8 hierarchies. This receiver can play back the files recorded in VBR (variable bit rate). The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in elapsed time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. Especially, after performing the search function, this difference becomes noticeable.

This receiver cannot play back the following files: MP3 files encoded with MP3i and MP3 PRO format. MP3 files encoded in an unappropriated format. MP3 files encoded with Layer 1/2. WMA files encoded with lossless, professional, and voice format. WMA files which are not based upon Windows Media Audio. WMA formatted files copy-protected with DRM. Files which have the data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc. The search function works but search speed is not constant.

Changing the source

If you change the source, playback also stops (without ejecting the disc). Next time you select CD for the playback source, disc play starts from where it has been stopped previously.

Ejecting a disc
If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again into the loading slot to prevent it from dust. (Disc will not play this time.)

General settingsPSM
If you change the AMP GAIN setting from HIGH PWR to LOW PWR while the volume level is set higher than VOL 30, the receiver automatically changes the volume level to VOL 30.

No MP3/WMA tracks are recorded on the disc. MP3/WMA tracks do not have the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> in their file names. MP3/WMA tracks are not recorded in the format compliant with ISO 9660 Level 1, Level 2, Romeo, or Joliet.

Remedies
Change the disc. Add the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> to their file names. Change the disc. (Record MP3/WMA tracks using a compliant application.) Skip to another track or change the disc. (Do not add the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> to non-MP3 or WMA tracks.) Do not use too many hierarchies and folders.

Noise is generated. MP3/WMA playback

The track played back is not an MP3/WMA track (although it has the extension code <.mp3> or <.wma>). Readout time varies due to the complexity of the folder/ file configuration. Playback order is determined when the files are recorded.

A longer readout time is required (CHECK keeps flashing on the display). Tracks cannot be played back as you have intended them to play.

Elapsed playing time is not This sometimes occurs during play. This is caused correct. by how the tracks are recorded on the disc. NO FILES appears on the display. Correct characters are not displayed (e.g. album name). The current disc does not contain any MP3/WMA tracks. This receiver can only display alphabets (capital: A Z), numbers, and a limited number of symbols. Insert a disc that contains MP3/WMA tracks.
