ter out.

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide spray,  
near the unit. Do not leave rubber of plastic products in  
contact with the unit for a long period of time. They will  
leave marks on the surface.

recorder (VCR) like another TV station. You  
have to select a channel number on your TV  
and tune it in so that you may watch video  
tapes. If you have used a SCART or AUDIO

have a dedicated video channel built into it,  
usually called AV.  
Notes  
Make sure that you have correctly installed your  
VCR and successfully tuned in a dedicated video  
channel on your TV. If you do not tune in a

About MP3  
An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using MPEG1,  
the audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that  
have the .mp3file extension MP3 files.  
The player can not read an MP3 file that has a file  
extension other than .mp3.  
To change the video mode, press and hold DISPLAY  
about 3 seconds during disc playback. The new video  
mode number selected is displayed on the TV screen.  
Check whether the video quality has improved. If not,  
repeat the above procedure until picture quality is  
improved.  
The player can not read a fake MP3 file that has a  
file extension .mp3.  
MP3 Disc compatibility with this player is  
limited as follows:  
1. Sampling Frequency / only at 44.1kHz  
2. Bit rate/ only 128kbps  
Video mode change sequence:  
MODE1 MODE2 MODE3 MODE4 →  
MODE5 MODE1  
3. CD-R physical format should be ISO 9660”  
4. If you record MP3 files using the software which  
cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example Direct-  
CDetc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We  
therefore recommend that you use Easy-CD  
Creator, which creates an ISO9660 file system.  
5. A single session disc requires MP3 files in the first  
track. If there is no MP3 file in the 1st track, it cannot  
playback MP3 files. If you wish to playback MP3  
files, format all the data in the disc or use a new  
one.  
If you turn off the the power, the video mode will be  
back to initial state (MODE1).  
6. We do not recommend using CD-RW discs. Please  
use finished CD-R discs only.  
7. File names should be named using 8 letters or less  
and must incorporate the .mp3extension  
e.g. ********.MP3.  
8. Characters other than uppercase letters (Ato Z),  
numerals (0to 9) and underscore (_) may not  
be displayed, or may be displayed in different char-  
acters.  
9. Total number of files on the disc should be less than  
255.  
10. Use 74 minute CD-R discs (650M), do not use 80  
minute CD-R (700M) software.  
This DVD player requires discs/recordings to meet  
certain technical standards in order to achieve optimal  
playback quality. Pre-recorded DVDs are automatically  
set to these standards. There are many different types  
of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing  
MP3 files).  
Customers should also note that permission is required  
in order to download MP3 files and music from the  
Internet. Our company has no right to grant such per-  
mission. Permission should always be sought from the  
copyright owner.
