• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play

back on this receiver because of their disc
characteristics, and for the following causes:

– Discs are dirty or scratched.
– Moisture condensation occurs on the lens

inside the receiver.

– The pickup lens inside the receiver is dirty.
– CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are

written with “Packet Write” method.

– Improper recording conditions (missing

data, etc.) or media conditions (stain,
scratch, warp, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time

since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower
than that of regular CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal

stuck to the surface.

– Discs on which labels can be directly

printed by an ink jet printer.

Using these discs under high temperatures or

high humidities may cause malfunctions or
damages to discs.

• This receiver can play back the files recorded

in VBR (variable bit rate).

The files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy

not constant.

Changing the source
