Warning

If you need to operate the unit while driving, be sure to 
look around carefully or you may be involved in a traffic 
accident.

Caution on volume setting

Discs produce very little noise compared with other sources. 
Lower the volume before playing a disc to avoid damaging 
the speakers by the sudden increase of the output level.

For safety...

•  Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will block 

outside sounds, making driving dangerous.

•  Stop the car before performing any complicated 

operations.

Temperature inside the car...

If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or cold 
weather, wait until the temperature in the car becomes 
normal before operating the unit.

outer edges of the disc.

MAINTENANCE

How to clean the connectors

Wipe the connectors with 
a cotton swab or cloth 
moistened with alcohol.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit. Eject 
the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until 
the moisture has evaporated.

Do not use the following discs:

Connectors

  – The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
  – The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the 

“Packet Write” method.

  – There are improper recording conditions (missing data, 

etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, 
etc.).

•  CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the 

reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular CDs.

Playing an MP3/WMA disc 

•  This unit can play back MP3/WMA files with the 

extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the 
letter case—upper/lower).

•  This unit can show the names of albums, artists 

(performer), and tag (Version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4) for 
MP3 files and for WMA files

•  This unit can display only one-byte characters. No other 

characters can be correctly displayed.

•  This unit can play back MP3/WMA files meeting the 

conditions below:

  – Bit rate: 8 kbps — 320 kbps
  – Sampling frequency: 
    48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (for MPEG-1)
    24 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 16 kHz (for MPEG-2)
  – Disc format: ISO 9660 Level 1/ Level 2, Romeo, Joliet, 

Windows long file name

•  The maximum number of characters for file/folder names 

vary depending on the disc format used (includes 4 
extension characters—<.mp3> or <.wma>).

  – ISO 9660 Level 1: up to 12 characters; ISO 9660 Level 

2: up to 31 characters; Romeo: up to 128 characters; 
Joliet: up to 64 characters; Windows long file name: up 
to 128 characters

•  This unit can recognize a total of 512 files, 255 folders, 

and 8 hierarchical levels.

•  This unit can play back files recorded in VBR (variable bit 

rate).

  Files recorded in VBR have a discrepancy in the elapsed 

time display, and do not show the actual elapsed time. 
In particular, this difference becomes noticeable after 
performing the search function.

•  This unit cannot play back the following files:
  – MP3 files encoded in: MP3i and MP3 PRO format, in an 

inappropriate format, layer 1/2.

  – WMA files: encoded in lossless, professional, and voice 

format; not based upon Windows Media® Audio; copy-
protected with DRM.

  – Files which have data such as WAVE, ATRAC3, etc.
•  The search function works but search speed is not 

constant.

  Basic operations 

•  By pressing SRC on the unit, you can also turn on the 

power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

•  If you turn off the power while listening to a disc, disc 

play will start from where it had been stopped previously 
next time you turn on the power.

  Tuner operations

•  During SSM search...
  – All previously stored stations are erased and the 

stations are stored anew.

  – Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest 

frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency). 

  – When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will be 

automatically tuned in.

•  Network-Tracking Reception requires two types of 

RDS signals—PI (Programme Identification) and AF 
(Alternative Frequency) to work correctly.

•  If a Traffic Announcement is received by TA Standby 

Reception, the volume level automatically changes to the 
preset level (TA VOL) if the current level is lower than the 
preset level.

•  When Alternative Frequency Reception is activated 

(with AF selected), Network-Tracking Reception is also 
activated automatically. On the other hand, Network-
Tracking Reception cannot be deactivated without 
deactivating Alternative Frequency Reception.
