•
Bit rate — The player supports bit rates from 32–320 kbps, as well as
variable bit rate MP3 files, but lower bit rates will have a noticeable
effect on sound quality and are recommended only for speech or low
fidelity music material. We recommend that you encode MP3 files
using a high quality encoder.
•
PC configuration — Encoding MP3 files requires intensive use of your
computer’s resources. Follow the PC configuration recommendations
of the encoder software vendor. We recommend that you avoid
running other software applications on your PC during MP3 encoding
to avoid undesirable noise and distortion.
CD, MP3 and CD player care
•
Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.
•
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended
periods of time.
•
Do not insert more than one disc into the slot of the CD player
(if equipped).
•
Always store discs out of direct sunlight. Excessive heat may damage
or warp discs.
•
Use care when handling and playing CD-R and CD-RW discs, which
are more susceptible to damage from heat, light and stress than are
regular CDs.
•
Always insert and remove a disc by holding the disc flat, with the
playing surface facing down, in order to prevent damage to the disc or
the player.
•
Never insert any object other than a compact disc (CD) or digital
versatile disc (DVD) into the player, as doing so may damage the
player and may cause injury to you.
•
Do not disassemble the player. The laser used in disc playback is
extremely harmful to the eyes.
