Learning More about This System
Daily Operations—Playback
(see pages 7 to 10)
Listening to the Radio:
• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number,
the previously stored station in that number will be erased.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the preset stations will be erased in a few days. If
this happens, preset the stations again.
Playing Back a Disc:
• When using an 8 cm disc, place it on the inner circle of the
disc tray.
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3 playback...
– MP3 discs require a longer readout time than regular
CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/file
configuration.)
– Some MP3 files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This results from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3 discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level
2 for the disc format.
– This system can play back MP3 files with the extension
code <.mp3> (regardless of the letter case—upper/
lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3 file at a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at a bit rate of 128 kbps.
This System cannot play back files made at a bit rate of
less than 64 kbps.
– Playback order of MP3 tracks may be different from
what you have intended when recording (see below). If a
folder does not include MP3 tracks, they are ignored.
– This System plays back MP3 tracks as follows.
• This System can recognize up to 999 tracks in a disc. Also,
the System can recognize up to 256 tracks per group and up
to 99 groups in a disc.
– Even if a folder contains no playable files, the folder is
also counted in the total folder number.
– Playable files which do not belong to any groups are
handled as Group 1.
Playing Back a Tape:
• It is not recommended to use the C-120 or longer tapes.
These tapes easily jam in the pinch rollers and the capstans,
and may cause characteristic deterioration.
• If you start playback with no cassette inserted, the System
tries to play back without displaying a notice.
Playing Back a Portable Audio Device:
• When QP Link fails due to a weak sound signal from the
AUX jack, Auto Standby may turn the System off even if
you can hear the sound from the speakers.
In such cases, adjust the volume level of the component
louder so that the System can detect the sound signal
properly.
• Changing from AUX to another source while QP Link
works will deactivate QP Link temporarily.
In this case, the following reactivates QP Link:
– Pressing QP LINK on the remote control
– Unplugging the component from the AUX jack, then
plugging it in again
• If you press STANDBY/ON
to turn the System off or
if preset Timer turns the System off while QP Link works,
the System will deactivate QP Link temporarily.
In such cases, the following reactivates QP Link:
– When the sound signal from the AUX jack stops or is too
weak for about 30 seconds after the System is turned off
– When you turn on the power again
• QP Link may start working when you just plug in the
component to the AUX jack or unplug it. This is not a
malfunction.
• 10 seconds before preset Recording Timer starts working,
the System will deactivate QP Link temporarily until the
following happens:
– Recording off-time comes.
– Recording is stopped manually.
Daily Operations—Sound&Other Adjustments
(see pages 11 and 12)
Adjusting the Volume:
• Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or
putting on the headphones.
Adjusting the Sound:
• This function also affects the sound through the
headphones.
• This function does not affect recording.
Setting the Clock:
• “0:00” will flash on the display until you set the clock.
• The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month. If this
happens, reset the clock.
