Notes on CD-Rs/RWs ¡ You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface. ¡ CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside a car for extended periods may damage and make playback impossible. ¡ Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and the discs. ¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed. ¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA or MP3/WMA data (Video CD, etc.). ¡ Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc for handling it. ¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files or displaying the information of MP3/WMA files recorded with certain writing software or CD recorders. ¡ The file extension ".mp3" or ".wma" should be assigned to each file depending on the file format. ¡ This unit does not have the play list function. ¡ Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of Disc-at-Once is recommended. Notes: ¡ This unit counts the number of folders irrespective of the presence or absence of MP3/WMA file. ¡ If the selected folder does not contain any MP3/WMA files, the nearest MP3/WMA files in the order of playback will be played. ¡ Playback order may be different from other MP3/WMA players even if the same disc is used. ¡ "ROOT" appears when displaying the root folder name. Anti-Theft System This unit is equipped with a removable face plate. Removing this face plate makes the unit totally inoperable. Caution ¡ This face plate is not waterproof. Do not expose it to water or excessive moisture. ¡ Do not remove the face plate while driving your car. ¡ Do not place the face plate on the dashboard or nearby areas where the temperature rises high. ¡ Do not touch the contacts on the face plate and the main unit, since this may result in poor electrical contact. ¡ If dirt or other foreign substances get on the contacts, wipe them off with a clean and dry cloth.
