WARNING  
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT means that the laser's construction makes  
it inherently safe so that the legally prescribed maximum permissible  
radiation values can never be exceeded.  
Caution: Using any equipment or devices other than those described and  
specified in these operating instructions, or tampering with the unit in any  
way, can result in dangerous exposure to radiation.  
MP3 / WMA CD Mode  
The CRD-37 is able to play CD-R and CD-RW discs containing MP3 or  
WMA files.  
InMP3/WMAmodetheterms"album"and"file"areveryimportant."Album"  
corresponds to a folder on a PC, "File " to an audio track in MP3 or WMA  
format. The clock radio reads MP3 or WMA files with a maximum of 255  
files per folder.An MP3 or WMACD may not contain more than 512 files or  
albums in total. MP3 or WMA files must be created with an audio sample

Both MP3 and WMA files may be recorded on to the same media.  
When burning CD-R and CD-RWs with audio files, various problems may  
arise which could lead to interference in playback. This can be caused  
by faulty software or hardware settings in your PC or by the CD being  
used. Should such problems arise, contact the customer services of your  
CD burner or software manufacturer or look for relevant information, for
