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"

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
