Learning More about This System
Basic and Common Operations (see page 3)
• Pressing one of the source buttons also turns on the
System and starts playing back.
Playing Back a Disc (see page 4)
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used
for MP3/WMA operations.
– This System can show the Tag data (Version 1).
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than
regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/
file configuration.)
– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the
letter case—upper/lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file
at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of 128 kbps.
This System cannot play back files made at bit rate of less
than 64 kbps.
– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different from
the one you have intended while recording. If a folder
does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are ignored.
• This System can recognize up to 99 groups in a disc. The
total number of groups and tracks in a disc that can be
recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/WMA).
– Playable files which do not belong to any groups are
handled as Group 1.
Listening to iPod (see page 6)
• If the iPod does not play correctly, update your iPod
Software to the latest version. For details about updating
your iPod, check on the Apple web site
• The iPod battery cannot be charged while the System is in
the Save mode.
• When the iPod is not charged through the System, the
iPod may not be turned on from the System.
• You cannot send any data to your iPod from the System.
• Sound distortion may occur when playing back audio
sources with high recording levels. When distortion occurs,
it is recommended to turn off the equalizer of the iPod. For
information on operating the iPod, see the iPod instruction
manual.
• Do not touch or hit the iPod terminal pins or connector
pins directly. It might cause damages to the connector
part.
Setting the Clock and Using Timers (see page 7)
• You can set the clock and Daily Timer even while the Save
mode is turned on. While setting the clock or Daily Timer,
the display is turning on.
• The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If this
happens, readjust the clock.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the clock and the timer will be canceled. You need
to set the clock first, then the timer again.
Timer Priority:
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts playing
the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.
