Discs
Discs which can be played on this unit:
Conventional audio CDs bearing the CD-DA logo on the label:
Properly finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs
MP3/WMA CDs
Note:
Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of the
recording, some CD-R/CD-RW discs may not be playable.
Copy-protected discs and other discs which do not conform to
the CD standard may not play back correctly in this player. If you
use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation and its subsidiaries
cannot be responsible for any consequences or guarantee the
quality of reproduction. If you experience problems with such
non-standard discs, you should contact the producers of the disc.
Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label side
uppermost. (Compact discs can be played or recorded only on
one side.)
To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the center
of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.
How to remove the disc
How to hold the disc
Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface radially (from
the center hole outward towards the outer edge) with a soft, dry
cloth:
Never use such chemicals as record sprays, antistatic sprays or
fluid, benzine or thinner to clean the discs. Such chemicals will do
irreparable damage to the disc’s plastic surface.
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid dust
and scratches that could cause the laser pickup to “skip”.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high humidity and
temperature for extended periods. Long exposure to high
temperatures will warp the disc.
Do not play any disc that is warped, deformed or damaged.
Playing such discs may cause irreparable harm to the playing
mechanisms.

CD-R and CD-RW discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat
and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is important that they
are not stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on
them, and which is away from sources of heat such as radiators or
heat-generating electrical devices.
Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information on
the label side. Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this
may cause damage to the recorded side.
Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available CD stabilizers
with this unit will damage the mechanisms and cause them to
malfunction.
Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart shaped, business
card size, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit:
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a CD-R/CD-
RW disc, read the precautions supplied with the disc, or contact
the disc manufacturer directly.
MP3 and WMA
This unit can play MP3 and WMA files recorded on a CD-R, CD-
RW.
File names of MP3 or WMA should be alphanumeric characters.
This unit cannot display symbols and full-size or double-byte
characters (such as Japanese, Chinese, etc.) correctly. Also, be
sure to use the file extension. (“.mp3” for MP3 files, “.wma” for
WMA files.)
MP3 files are mono or stereo MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3 format. This
unit can play MP3 files with sampling frequency 44.1 kHz or 48
kHz, bit-rate 320 kbps or less.
This unit can play WMA files with sampling frequency 44.1 kHz,
bit-rate 192 kbps or less. WMA means Windows Media Audio.
Audio encoded at 128 Kbps should sound close to regular audio
CD quality. Although this player will play lower bit-rate MP3
tracks, the sound quality becomes noticeably worse at lower bit
rates.
The disc must be finalized in order to play.
The CD-ROM must be ISO 9660 compatible.
When more than 255 files are recorded on the disc, the unit
might not be able to play it correctly.
