The DVD VIDEO Logo is a trademark.  
CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with SVCD, Video CD, Audio CD or MP3 format can be played back, though  
some may not be played back because of the disc characteristics or recording condition. Note that the CD-R  
and CD-RW that are not finalized cannot be played back.  
DVD VIDEO players and DVD discs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit only can play back DVD  
VIDEO discs whose Region Code numbers include 2.”  
Examples of playable DVD VIDEO discs:

Playing back discs listed as Non-playable discsabove may generate noise and damage speakers.  
This unit can play back audio recorded in CD-G, CD-EXTRA and CD-TEXT discs.  
Disc structure  
A DVD VIDEO disc is comprised of titles,while an Audio CD, Video CD or SVCD is comprised of tracks.”  
Each title may be divided into some chapters.For example, if a DVD VIDEO disc contains some movies,  
each movie may have its own title number, and each movie may be divided into some chapters. In a DVD  
VIDEO karaoke disc, each song usually has its own title number and does not have chapters. In general, each  
title has independent content, while each chapter in the same title has continuity.  
For the MP3 disc structure, see page 40.

MP3 disc playback  
This unit can playback CD discs recorded by the MP3  
format (we refer to those discs as MP3 discs in this  
manual).  
Unavailable functions  
Operations for MP3 discs are similar to those for  
Audio CD discs, though there are some restrictions  
and differences.  
As described earlier, there are some restriction for  
playback of MP3 discs. Following functions are not  
available with MP3 discs.  
What is MP3?  
Unavailable functions for MP3 discs  
MP3 is the abbreviation of MPEG1 Audio Layer  
3.MPEG Audio is a compression specification  
that compresses the audio portion only. This  
image compression method is used in DVD or  
Video CD, etc. The audio data has been  
compressed into about 1/10.

About MP3 disc  
On an MP3 disc, each material (song) is recorded on  
each Track (file), which usually belongs to a Group  
(folder).

Track 1  
Track 2  
You cannot playback Tracks in the desired  
(programmed) or random order, nor playback a  
Track repeatedly.  
The screen saver function is not active with an  
MP3 disc, as with an Audio CD.  
This unit can recognize up to 99 Groups and up to  
254 Tracks per Group, however, the number of  
Tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.  
If a disc includes more than 1023 Tracks, the unit stops  
detecting Tracks when the number of detected Tracks  
reaches 1023 and ignores the subsequent Tracks. The  
unit also ignores any non-MP3 file in the disc.  
NOTES for making a private MP3 disc  
using a CD-R/CD-RW disc:  
Select ISO 9660as the disc format.  
Do not select the multi-sessionrecording.  
Finalize the disc.  
NOTES  
Because of the disc characteristics or recording  
condition, some discs may not be played back  
or it takes time to start playback.  
The unit does not support packet writingdiscs.  
If there are any Tracks (files) which are stored  
on a disc directly and do not belong to any  
Group (directory), the unit recognized them as  
belonging to an independent Group.  
The unit does not output a digital audio signal  
from DIGITAL OUT when playing back an MP3  
disc.  
The unit plays back Groups/Tracks on an MP3  
disc in the alphabetical order.  
For example, if there are three title Groups  
[one], [two] and [three] on a disc, the playback  
order is [one], [three] then [two]. Tracks in a  
Group are played back in the same way.  
Therefore, an MP3 disc on the market may be  
played back in the different order from the  
order printed on its sleeve.

Additional information  
Care and handling of discs  
How to handle discs  
When handling a disc, do not touch the surface of the disc. Since discs are made of plastic, they are easily  
damaged. If a disc gets dirty, dusty, scratched or warped, the images and sound will not be picked up  
correctly, and such a disc may cause the player to malfunction.  
Label side  
Do not damage the label side, stick paper to or use any adhesive on its surface.  
Storage  
Make sure that discs are kept in their cases. If discs are piled on top of one another without their protective  
cases, they can be damaged. Do not put discs in a location where they may be exposed to direct sunlight, or  
in a place where the humidity or temperature is high. Avoid leaving discs in your car!  
Maintenance of discs  
If there are fingerprints or other dirt adhering to a disc, wipe with a soft dry cloth, moving from the center  
outwards.  
If a disc is difficult to clean, wipe with a cloth moistened with water. Never use record cleaners, petrol, alcohol  
or any anti-static agents.  
CAUTION  
Sometimes during playback noise or images may be garbled. This is sometimes due to the disc. (It may  
not be up to industry standards.)  
These symptoms are caused by the discs, not by the malfunction of the unit.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
“SOME DOS AND DON’TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT”  
This equipment has been disigned and manufactured to meet international safety standards  
but, like any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and  
safety is to be assured.  
Do read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.  
Do ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and  
interconnections between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the  
manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug when making or  
changing connections.  
Do consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of  
your equipment.  
Do be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.  
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or  
if it is damaged in any way–switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.  
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages.  
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it  
is designed for unattended operation or has a standby mode.  
Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do  
this.  
Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people.  
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the  
requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving.  
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume as such use can permanently damage your  
hearing.  
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for example with curtains or soft furnishings.  
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.  
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws — to ensure complete  
safety always fit the manufacturer’s approved stand or legs with the fixings provided  
according to the instructions.  
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to rain or moisture.  
ABOVE ALL  
NEVER let anyone, especially children, push anything into holes, slots or any other opening  
in the case -this could result in a fatal electrical shock.;  
NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind -it is better to be safe  
than sorry!
