sessions it takes more time for play to start. Keep the number of
sessions to a minimum to avoid this.

• If the disc includes both MP3 and normal audio data (CD-DA), the unit
plays the type recorded in the inner part of the disc.

or WAV), the unit plays only the MP3.
• Depending on how you create MP3 files, they may not play in the order
you numbered them or may not play at all.
