Notes on discs Music discs encoded with copyright protection

• To keep the disc clean, do not touch the surface. Handle the disc by its edge.
• Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use. Do not subject the discs to heat/high temperature. Avoid leaving them in parked cars or on dashboards/rear trays. This product is designed to play back discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product. Note on DualDiscs

• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.

• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers attached. The following malfunctions may result from using such discs: — Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or sticker peeling off and jamming the eject mechanism). — Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g., playback skipping, or no playback) due to heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a disc to warp.
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star) cannot be played on this player. Attempting to do so may damage the player. Do not use such discs.
• Before playing, clean the discs with a commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe each disc from the center out. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended for analog discs.

A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which mates DVD recorded material on one side with digital audio material on the other side. However, since the audio material side does not conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this product is not guaranteed. The playback order of the MP3 files About MP3 files MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) is a standard technology and format for compressing a sound sequence. The file is compressed to about 1/10 of its original size. Sounds outside the range of human hearing are compressed while the sounds we can hear are not compressed. The playback order of the folders and files is as follows:

Recommended MP3 file format Sampling frequency (Hz) Folder (album)

Notes on discs/”Memory Stick” You can play MP3 files recorded on CD-ROMs, CD-Rs, and CD-RWs. The disc must be in the ISO 9660* level 1 or level 2 format, or Joliet in the expansion format.

• ISO 9660 Format The most common international standard for the logical format of files and folders on a CD-ROM. There are several specification levels. In level 1, file names must be in the 8.3 format (no more than 8 characters in the name, no more than 3 characters in the extension “.MP3”) and in capital letters. Folder names can be no longer than 8 characters. There can be no more than 8 nested folder levels. Level 2 specifications allow file names up to 31 characters long. Each folder can have up to 8 trees. For Joliet in the expansion format, make sure of the contents of the writing software, etc. Notes
• With formats other than ISO 9660 level 1 and level 2, folder names or file names may not be displayed correctly.
• When naming, be sure to add the file extension “.MP3” to the file name.
• If you put the extension “.MP3” to a file other than MP3, the player cannot recognize the file properly and will generate random noise that could damage your speakers.
• The following discs/”Memory Stick” take a longer time to start playback. — a disc/”Memory Stick” recorded with complicated tree structure. — a disc to which data can be added.
• A high-bit rate MP3 file such as 320 kbps may not play back properly.

Tree 1 (root) Tree 2 Tree 3 Tree 4 Tree 5 Tip To specify a desired playback order, before the folder or file name, input the order by number (e.g., “01”, “02”), then record contents onto a disc (The order differs depending on the writing software).
