■ About MP3 and WMA discs
You can play back MP3 and WMA files recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW with similar uses as a music CD.
MP3
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3) is a standard technology
and format for compressing an audio sequence into a
small-sized file. However, the original level of sound
quality is preserved during playback.

• Up to 648 folders and files (combined) and up to 299 folders are
recognized; however, some folders and files may not be
recognized depending on their directory structure.

settings, this unit may not be able to play back the disc or files
in the order they were recorded.
• This unit is compatible with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
• This unit is compatible with a bitrate of 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80,

WMA can compress files at a higher rate than MP3.

■ Handling compact discs
• Always handle a disc with care so that its surface is not
scratched.
• Compact discs are rarely worn out during playback, but
damage to the disc surface when the disc is being
handled can adversely affect the disc playback.
• Be sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool
when writing on the label side of a disc. Do not use a
ball-point pen, pencil, or other hard-tipped writing
tools as these may damage the disc and may adversely
affect the disc playback.
• Do not warp discs.
• When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from
this unit and store it in an appropriate case.
• When removing or storing a disc, be careful not to
scratch the playing surface.
• Compact discs are not affected by small particles of
dust or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even
so they must be kept clean. Wipe the disc surface with
a clean, cry cloth. Do not wipe the disc surface with a
circular motion; wipe it straight outward from the
center.
• Do not try to clean the disc surface with any type of
disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or
any other chemical-based liquid as such substances
may irreparably damage the disc surface.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high
temperature, or high humidity for a long period of time
as these conditions may warp or otherwise damage the
disc.
• To play back an 8-cm (3-inch) compact disc, place it in
the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put a
normal 12-cm CD on top of an 8-cm CD.
