Handling Compact Discs  
2. PRECAUTIONS  
Do not use compact discs that have large  
scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of  
such discs may cause misoperation or damage.  
Use only compact discs bearing the  
or  
: Disc folder indication  
: Scan indication  
mark.  
1. When the inside of the car is very cold and the  
player is used soon after switching on the  
heater moisture may form on the disc or the  
optical parts of the player and proper playback  
may not be possible. If moisture forms on the  
disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture  
forms on the optical parts of the player, do not  
use the player for about one hour. The con-  
densation will disappear naturally allowing nor-  
mal operation.  
2. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause  
severe vibration may cause the sound to skip.  
Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other  
specially shaped compact discs.  
To remove a compact disc from its storage case,  
press down on the center of the case and lift the  
disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.  
3. This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even in  
the event that trouble arises, never open the  
case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate the ro-  
tating parts.  
: Repeat indication  
: Random indication  
Some CDs recorded in CD-R/CD-RW mode  
may not be usable.  
• Do not use commercially available CD protec-  
tion sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers,  
etc. These may damage the disc or cause  
breakdown of the internal mechanism.  
Handling  
Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and  
CD-RW discs are both easily affected by high  
temperature and humidity and some of CD-R  
and CD-RW discs may not be played. Therefore,  
do not leave them for a long time in the car.

skip. Use a ball-point  
pen or the like to re-  
move any roughness  
from the edge of the

To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft  
cloth and wipe in a straight line from the center  
of the compact disc to the circumference.  
THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER and MINI DISC  
PLAYER SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR RE-  
PAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY  
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
• Do not use any solvents, such as commercially  
available cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner  
to clean compact discs.  
: Mute indication  
Never stick labels on the surface of the compact  
disc or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.  
: Preset channel indication (1 to 6)  
Disc number indication (1 to 12)  
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EX-  
PRESSLY APPROVED BY THE MANUFAC-  
TURER FOR COMPLIANCE COULD VOID THE

phane tape or other glue on it or with peeling  
off marks. If you try to play such a compact  
disc, you may not be able to get it back out of  
the CD player or it may damage the CD  
player.

CD/MP3/WMA Operations  
2. Files without MP3/WMA data will not play.  
The indication “––:––” appears in the play  
time display if you attempt to play files with-  
out MP3/WMA data.  
MP3/WMA  
What is MP3?  
MP3 is an audio compression method and clas-  
sified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.  
This audio compression method has penetrated  
into PC users and become a standard format.  
Logical format (File system)  
1. When writing MP3/WMA file on a CD-R disc  
or CD-RW disc, please select “ISO9660 level  
1, 2 or JOLIET or Romeo” as the writing soft-  
ware format. Normal play may not be possible  
if the disc is recorded on another format.  
This MP3 features the original audio data com-  
pression to about 10 percent of its initial size  
with a high sound quality. This means that about  
10 music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc  
or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time  
without having to change CDs.  
2. The folder name and file name can be dis-  
played as the title during MP3/WMA play but  
the title must be within 128 single byte alpha-  
betical letters and numerals (including an ex-  
tension).  
What is WMA?  
WMA is the abbreviation of Windows Media Au-  
dio, an audio file format developed by Microsoft  
Corporation.  
3. Do not affix a name to a file inside a folder  
having the same name.

Notes:  
About the 2-ZONE function  
The 2-ZONE function is a function that outputs  
separate sounds from the MAIN zone and SUB  
zone by simultaneously operating two sources in the  
one center unit, thereby allowing plural listeners to  
enjoy separate music sources.  
• The SCN/RPT/RDM functions cannot be used  
while in the play list mode.  
• The title display changes from folder name to play  
list name.  
This unit can control its internal sources (radio, CD,  
MP3, etc.) to play back them, and further, can simul-  
taneously play back sources from external equip-  
ment connected via CeNET (for instance, CD  
changers etc.).  
Making a play list  
1. Write desired tracks to a CD-R/RW, etc. Be  
sure to use alphanumeric/ASCII characters  
for all file names.  
2. Make a play list by using a multimedia  
player, etc. and save the data. The file format  
must be M3U.  
The sources of the MAIN zone are played back  
from the speakers of the vehicle side, and those  
of the SUB zone are from the headphone sys-  
tems (WH104/WH204).  
3. Again, write this play list to the CD-R/RW,  
etc.  
Notes:  
• Except AUX, the MAIN and SUB zones cannot si-  
multaneously use sources inside this unit.  
Also, external equipment connected via CeNET  
cannot simultaneously be used.  
• The TV mode while the 2-ZONE function is tuned  
on is forced to change to “VTR playback.”  
Notes:  
• When writing to a CD-R/RW, etc., be sure to use  
alphanumeric/ASCII characters.  
• Up to 5 layers can be recognized as a list. For  
written play lists, latest 5 lists are recognized in  
the order in which they are written.  
• The ISR function cannot be operated when the 2-  
ZONE function is turned on.  
• When writing to a CD-R/RW, etc., turn off the Disc  
At Once function.  
• The Audio mode and Z-enhancer function cannot  
be set for the sources of the SUB zone.  
• When adding a play list, it is recommended to  
write it in the “Root” folder.  
• If any of following external equipment is con-  
nected, this function is disenabled.  
• 5.1 channel surround decoder (DVC920)  
Setting the 2-ZONE function  
The initial setting is “OFF”.  
When you have set the 2-ZONE function to “ON” in
