Notes on MP3
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) is a format for compressed audio file. These formats allow users to save all the
files contained in approximately 10 pieces of existing CDs on one piece of CD-R/RW.
Note: Each of encoding software is not included with this unit.
*MPEG Layer-3 audio coding technology licensed from Fraunhofer IIS and Thomson.
Cautions as to compressed audio files
¡High bit rate and high sampling frequency are
recommended for high quality sounds.
¡Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recom-
mended because playing time is not displayed
properly and sound may be skipped.
¡Be sure to put an extension compatible with the
format.
¡It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps
or more” and “fixed”.
¡The playback sound quality differs depending on
the encoding circumstances. For details, refer to
the user manual of your own encoding software
and writing software.

¡When inserting a disc into or ejecting and
removing it from the unit, insert it straight in or
eject and remove it straight out in parallel with
the unit. Otherwise, the disc may be scratched
or marked in the process.
¡When inserting a disc, do not put one disc on
another. Failure to observe this may cause the
discs to be jammed.
Unusable discs
Do not use discs that fit any of the descriptions
given below. Using these discs may damage the
discs or cause the unit to malfunction.
¡Special discs in a shape which is not round
Do not leave discs in the following places:

¡This product is designed to operate with a 12 V DC, negative @ ground battery system.
¡To prevent damage to the unit, be sure to follow the connection diagram below.
¡Do not insert the power connector into the unit until the wiring is completed.
¡Be sure to insulate any exposed wires from a possible short-circuit from the vehicle chassis. Bundle all
cables and keep cable terminals free from touching any metal parts.
¡Remember, if your vehicle has a drive computer or a navigation computer, the data of its memory
maybe erased when the battery terminals are disconnected.
