Media and File Requirements
This player allows you to play back MP3 and WMA files recorded onto CD-R/RWs, DVD+R/RWs, and DVD-R/RWs. For CD-RW discs, please make sure it is formatted using the full method and not the quick method to prevent illegal disc operation.

• ISO 9660 – file name: 12 characters, file extension: 3 characters
• ISO 9660 – file name: 31 characters, file extension: 3 characters

• Transfer Bit Rate: 128kbps
• Sampling Frequency: 48kHz

You may be able to set the order in which MP3/WMA files are to be played by writing them onto a medium such as a CD-R with their file names beginning with play sequence numbers such as "01" to "99".
For example, a medium with the following folder/file hierarchy is subject to Folder Search, File Search or Folder Select, as shown below.

- If the temperature inside the player gets too hot, a protective circuit automatically stops play of the disc. If this occurs, allow the unit to cool before operating the player again.
- Never insert anything other than a 5" (12 cm) compact disc into the player as the mechanism can be damaged by foreign objects.
- Do not attempt to use a 3" (8 cm) CD-Single disc in this unit, either with or without an adaptor, as damage to the player and/or disc may occur. Such damage is not covered by the Warranty on this product.
- The CD player may not operate properly in extreme hot or cold. If such conditions occur, allow the interior of the vehicle to reach a normal temperature before using player.
- When the vehicle warms up during cold weather or under damp conditions, condensation may appear on the LCD panel. Should this occur, the screen will not operate properly until the moisture has evaporated.
