• Multisession and CD-R/CD-RW discs that have not been  
completely written can be played, but we recommend using  
discs closed after a maximum of 10 sessions or discs that have  
been completed.  
• The maximum number of files and folders playable is 512 (total  
of the number of folders and files). The maximum number of  
folders is 256.  
• Copyright-protected WMA files cannot be played. (“– – : – –” is  
displayed. Use the 8/6 or 7/9 button on the main

This CD player uses a semiconductor laser. To ensure stable  
operation, it is recommended to use the set indoors at a  
temperature of 5°C (41°F) ~ 35°C (95°F).  
There are many music distribution sites on the Internet allowing you  
to download music files in MP3 or WMA format. The music (files)  
downloaded from such sites can be stored on CD-R or CD-RW discs  
and played on the this CD player.  
“Windows Media” and “Windows” are registered trademarks or

q
Discs with the mark at the right can be used on  
this set.  
Note however that discs with special shapes  
(heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.) cannot  
be played. Do not attempt to play them, as doing  
so could damage the set.  
Holding discs  
NOTE:  
• This CD player is compatible with “MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3”  
standards (sampling frequency of 44.1 and 48 kHz). It is not  
compatible with “MPEG-2 Audio Layer-3”, “MPEG-2.5 Audio  
Layer-3”, MP1 or MP2 standards.  
Do not touch the signal surface.  
• The signals are output with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.  
• When writing MP3 files on a CD-R or CD-RW disc, set the writing  
software’s format to “ISO9660 Level 1”. The files may not play  
properly if they are recorded in other formats. Also note that with  
some writing software it is not possible to record in ISO9660  
format. If so, use a different program allowing you to record in  
ISO9660 format.  
• With MP3 files, the higher the bit rate, the better the sound  
quality. The compatible bit rate range is 32 to 320 kbps for MP3  
files, 64 to 160 kbps for WMA files. We recommend using MP3  
files with bit rates of 128 kbps or greater on the this CD player.

WMA files, respectively. Files with extensions other than  
“.MP3” or “.WMA” or files without extensions cannot be  
played. (On Macintosh computers, MP3 files can be played by  
giving the extension “.MP3” after the file name consisting up a  
maximum of 8 alphanumeric characters and storing the files on a  
CD-R or CD-RW disc.)
