Troubleshooting
Maintenance
To get the best performance of the System, keep your discs
and mechanism clean.
Handling discs
• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge
while pressing the center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when
placing it back in its case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes,
and moisture.
To clean the disc:
• Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center
to edge.
Cleaning the System
• Stains should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System is
heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted
neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a
dry cloth.
• Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become
damaged or get its paint peeled off, be careful about the
following:
– DO NOT wipe it with a hard cloth.
– DO NOT wipe it strongly.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as insecticides
to it.
– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact
for a long time.

and starts playing back if the source is ready or connected.
• You cannot use the Sound Mode and Sound Turbo at the
same time.
Playing Back a Disc/USB Mass Storage Class Device
(see page 4)
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably used.
– This System can show the Tag data (Version 1).
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time than
regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the group/
file configuration.)
– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and will be
skipped. This result from their recording processes and
conditions.
– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of the
letter case—upper/lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA file at
a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at 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/WMA tracks may be different from the
one you have intended while recording. If a folder (group)
does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are ignored.
• Do not use the following USB mass storage class devices...
– Whose rating is other than 5 V and exceeds 500 mA.
– Equipped with special functions such as data security
functions.
– Divided by 2 or more partitions.
• For the USB mass storage class device playback...
– When connecting a USB mass storage class device, also
refer to its manual.
– Connect one USB mass storage class device to the System
at a time. Do not use a USB hub.
– This System is compatible with USB 2.0 Full Speed.
– You can play back MP3/WMA files in a USB mass storage
class device (maximum data transfer rate: 2 Mbps).
– You cannot play back a file larger than 2 Gigabytes.
– This System may not play back some USB mass storage
class devices and does not support DRM (Digital Rights
Management)
• This System can recognize up to 255 groups in a disc. The
total number of groups and tracks (in a disc) that can be
recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/WMA).
• This System can recognize up to 99 groups and 999 tracks
(with a maximum number of 255 tracks in a group) in a USB
mass storage class device.
• Prohibiting disc ejection (or canceling it) is not available
when the display is turned off (“DISP OFF”) or the ECO Mode
is activated (“ECO ON”) (see page 3).
If you are having a problem with your System, check this list
for a possible solution before calling for service.
