2. PRECAUTIONS  
1. When the inside of the car is very cold and the  
player is used soon after switching on the  
heater moisture may form on the disc or the  
optical parts of the player and proper playback  
may not be possible. If moisture forms on the  
disc, wipe it off with a soft cloth. If moisture  
forms on the optical parts of the player, do not  
use the player for about one hour. The con-  
densation will disappear naturally allowing nor-  
mal operation.  
2. Driving on extremely bumpy roads which cause  
severe vibration may cause the CD to skip.  
3. This unit uses a precision mechanism. Even in  
the event that trouble arises, never open the  
case, disassemble the unit, or lubricate the ro-  
tating parts.  
This equipment has been tested and found to com-  
ply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pur-  
suant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  
CAUTION  
USE OF CONTROLS, ADJUSTMENTS, OR PER-  
FORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN  
THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN, MAY RESULT IN  
HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.  
These limits are designed to provide reasonable  
protection against harmful interference in a resi-  
dential installation.  
THE COMPACT DISC PLAYER and MINI DISC  
PLAYER SHOULD NOT BE ADJUSTED OR RE-  
PAIRED BY ANYONE EXCEPT PROPERLY  
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate  
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and  
used in accordance with the instructions, may  
cause harmful interference to radio communica-  
tions. However, there is no guarantee that inter-  
ference will not occur in a particular installation.  
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EX-  
PRESSLY APPROVED BY THE MANUFAC-  
TURER FOR COMPLIANCE COULD VOID THE  
USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIP-  
MENT.  
If this equipment does cause harmful interference  
to radio or television reception, which can be de-  
termined by turning the equipment off and on, the  
user is encouraged to consult the dealer or an ex-  
perienced radio/TV technician for help.

Sloping Console  
This unit uses sloping console to make large-  
screen displays possible.  
When you use the sloping console, be sure to  
close it.  
2. Before the SLOPING CONSOLE closes,  
there may be a braking sound from the  
safety mechanism. This is normal.  
3. If you move the SLOPING CONSOLE by  
hand, this may create play. To correct this  
play, with the power on for the unit, press the  
[Q] button to close the SLOPING CONSOLE.  
4. After a disc is ejected, the SLOPING CON-  
SOLE automatically returns to the tilted or  
closed state. If there is any obstruction when  
the SLOPING CONSOLE tries to close, the  
safety mechanism is triggered and the  
SLOPING CONSOLE returns to the open  
state. If this happens, remove the obstruc-  
tion, then press the [Q] button.  
CAUTION  
BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET YOUR FINGERS  
CAUGHT WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING  
THE SLOPING CONSOLE.  
1. For safety’s sake, always close the SLOP-  
ING CONSOLE before leaving this unit un-  
used for a prolonged period or switching  
OFF the ignition key.  
If you switch OFF the ignition key with the  
SLOPING CONSOLE tilted, the SLOPING  
CONSOLE does not close.  
5. To avoid scratching the compact disc, keep  
the 12 or 8 cm CD level when inserting or re-  
moving them.  
Handling Compact Discs  
• Do not use compact discs that have large  
scratches, are misshapen, cracked, etc. Use of  
such discs may cause misoperation or damage.  
Use only compact discs bearing the  
mark.  
or  
Do not play heart-shaped, octagonal, or other  
specially shaped compact discs.  
To remove a compact disc from its storage case, press  
down on the center of the case and lift the disc out,  
holding it carefully by the edges.  
Some CDs recorded in CD-R/CD-RW mode  
may not be usable.  
Do not use commercially available CD protection  
sheets or discs equipped with stabilizers, etc. These  
may damage the disc or cause breakdown of the inter-  
nal mechanism.  
Handling  
Compared to ordinary music CDs, CD-R and CD-RW  
discs are both easily affected by high temperature and  
humidity and some of CD-R and CD-RW discs may  
not be played. Therefore, do not leave them for a long  
time in the car.  
Storage  
Do not expose compact discs to direct sunlight or any  
heat source.  
Do not expose compact discs to excess humidity or  
dust.  
New discs may have  
some roughness around  
Ball-point pen  
the edges. If such discs  
are used, the player may  
Do not expose compact discs to direct heat from heat-  
ers.  
Roughness  
not work or the sound  
may skip. Use a ball-  
point pen or the like to  
remove any roughness  
from the edge of the  
disc.  
Cleaning  
To remove fingermarks and dust, use a soft cloth and  
wipe in a straight line from the center of the compact  
disc to the circumference.  
Do not use any solvents, such as commercially avail-  
able cleaners, anti-static spray, or thinner to clean  
compact discs.  
Never stick labels on the surface of the compact disc  
or mark the surface with a pencil or pen.  
After using special compact disc cleaner, let the com-  
pact disc dry off well before playing it.  
Never play a compact disc with any cellophane tape or  
other glue on it or with peeling off marks. If you try to  
play such a compact disc, you may not be able to get it  
back out of the CD player or it may damage the CD  
player.

CD/MP3/WMA Operations  
2. Files without MP3/WMA data will not play.  
The indication “:” appears in the play  
time display if you attempt to play files with-  
out MP3/WMA data.  
MP3/WMA  
What is MP3?  
MP3 is an audio compression method and clas-  
sified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards.  
This audio compression method has penetrated  
into PC users and become a standard format.  
Logical format (File system)  
1. When writing MP3/WMA file on a CD-R disc  
or CD-RW disc, please select “ISO9660  
level 1, 2 or JOLIET or Romeo” as the writ-  
ing software format. Normal play may not be  
possible if the disc is recorded on another  
format.  
This MP3 features the original audio data com-  
pression to about 10 percent of its initial size  
with a high sound quality. This means about 10  
music CDs can be recorded on a CD-R disc or  
CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time with-  
out having to change CDs.  
2. The folder name and file name can be dis-  
played as the title during MP3/WMA play but  
the title must be within 128 single byte alpha-  
betical letters and numerals (including an ex-  
tension).  
What is WMA?  
WMA is the abbreviation of Windows Media Au-  
dio, an audio file format developed by Microsoft  
Corporation.  
3. Do not affix a name to a file inside a folder  
having the same name.  
Notes:  
Folder structure  
1. A disc with a folder having more than 8 hier-  
archical levels will be impossible.  
• If you play a file with DRM (Digital Rights Man-  
agement) for WMA remaining ON, no audio is  
output. (The DRM indicator blinks.)  
Number of files or folders  
1. Up to 255 files can be recognized per folder.  
Up to 500 files can be played.  
• Windows Media™, and the Windows® logo are  
trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft
