Disc playback

This system can play back a standard CD, CD-R/RW in the CD format and CD-R/RW with MP3 or WMA files, but cannot record on them. Some audio CD-R and CD-RW discs may not be playable due to the state of the disc or the device that was used for recording.

MP3:

MP3 is a form of compression. It is an acronym which stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3. MP3 is a type of audio code which is processed by significant compression from the original audio source with very little loss in sound quality.

• This system supports MPEG-1/2 Audio Layer 3 (Sampling rates: 8 kHz to 48 kHz; Bit rates: 64 kbps to 384 kbps).
- During VBR file playback, time counter in the display may differ from its actual playback time.

WMA:

WMA (Windows Media Audio) files are Advanced System Format files that include audio files which are compressed with Windows Media Audio codec. WMA is developed by Microsoft as an audio format file for Windows Media Player.

• This system supports WMA (Sampling rates: 32 kHz/44.1 kHz/48 kHz; Bit rates: 64 kbps to 320 kbps).
• During VBR file playback, time counter in the display may differ from its actual playback time.

To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:

Press ■ whilst it is scanning for stations. The stations which are already stored in memory will be kept there.

Note

• If the same station is broadcasting on different frequencies, the strongest frequency will be stored in memory.
• Any station which has the same frequency as the one stored in memory will not be stored.
• If 30 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the preset memory.
• If no station have been stored in memory, "END" will appear for about 4 seconds.
• If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may not be stored in memory.
• The same station name can be stored in different channels.
• In a certain area or during certain time periods, the station names may temporarily be different.

Notes for RDS operation

If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the unit is faulty:

• "PS", "NO PS" and a station name appear alternately, and properly.
• If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work properly.
• When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak, information like the station name may not be displayed.
• "NO PS", "NO PTY" or "NO RT" will flash for about 5 seconds, and then the frequency will be displayed.

Notes for radio text:

• The first 16 characters of the radio text will appear and then they will scroll across the display.
• If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any radio text, "NO RT" will be displayed when you switch to the radio text position.
• Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents change, "RT" will be displayed.

Cleaning the lens

- This unit's lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer authorized service center. Although lens cleaners for players are commercially available, we advise against using them since some may damage the lens.

Handling discs

Storing

• Always place discs in their cases and store them vertically, avoiding hot, humid places, places exposed to direct sunlight and extremely cold places.
- Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.

Cleaning discs

- Discs may not play if there are fingerprints or dust on them. In this case, use a cleaning cloth, etc., to gently wipe the disc from the inside towards the outside. Do not use dirty cleaning cloths.

• Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile chemicals. Also do not use record spray or antistatic agents.
• For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth, wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe off the moisture with a dry cloth.
• Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
• Do not let the signal surface of discs get scratched or dirty.
• Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to discs. Doing so could warp discs, making it impossible to play them. Also note that rental discs often have labels attached to them, and the label's glue may have oozed out. Check that there is no glue around the edges of such labels before using rented discs.
