Disc (Audio CD and MP3) Notes
Precautions for Playback
Compact discs (CDs) with the following logo on the
label surface can be used.
Do not use discs designed for purposes other than audio,
such as CD-ROMs for PC use. Abnormal noise could
damage the CD receiver.
* The CD receiver supports CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Note that some discs may not playback because of the disc
characteristics, scratches, contamination or the recording state.
A disc recorded with an audio CD record will not playback
unless it is finalized.
Never use discs which have a special shape (such as
hearts or octagons). These types of discs could jam and
damage the CD receiver.
CD Playback with Copy-control Function
Some audio CDs with copy-control function do not
comply with official CD standards. These are special
discs and cannot be played with the CD receiver.
Playback of MP3 Discs
MP3 files recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW can be played
with the CD receiver.
• Use discs which have been recorded following the
ISO 9660 Level 2 file system. (The supported
directory depth is eight levels, the same as ISO 9660
Level 1)
• Discs recorded with the hierarchical file system (HFS)
cannot be played.
• Discs must be closed (finalized).
• Only MP3 files with the extension “.MP3” or “. mp3”
are supported.
• Files recorded using MPEG 1 audio layer 3 at
sampling frequencies of 32/44.1/48 kHz and a
constant bit rate (CBR) of 32–320 kbps are supported.
• A maximum of 299 folders can be recognized on a
single CD. A maximum of 648 files can be recognized
in a single folder.
Handling Discs
Hold discs by the edge, or by the center hole and edge.
Avoid touching the playback surface (surface with
nothing printed on it).
Do not attach paper or stickers, or write on the playback
or label surface of the disc. Take care not to scratch or
damage the disc.
Precautions for Rental Discs
Do not use discs with residue from cellophane tape,
rental discs with labels which are peeling off, or discs
with decorative labels. This type of disc could get stuck
in the CD receiver, or could damage the CD receiver.
Precautions for Inkjet Printable Discs
Do not leave a CD-R/CD-RW having a label printed with
an inkjet printer in the CD receiver for a long time. The
disc could get stuck in the CD receiver, or could damage
the CD receiver.
Remove the disc from the CD receiver when not being
played, and store it in a case. A freshly printed disc will
stick easily, and should not be played immediately.
Caring for Discs
If the disc is dirty, the CD receiver will have a hard time
reading signals, and the audio quality may drop. If the
disc is dirty, gently wipe off fingerprints and dust with a
soft cloth. Lightly wipe from the center outwards.
To remove stubborn dust or dirt,
wipe the disc with a soft cloth
dampened with water, and then dry
it with a dry cloth. Do not use
cleaning spray for analog records
or antistatic agents, etc. Never use
volatile chemicals such as benzine
or paint thinner as they can impregnate the disc surface.
