Before You Begin
This unit is compatible with CD-RW/ CD-R discs for playback.
Notes on CD-R/RW Disc:
• CD-R/RW discs that are recorded by personal computers or some CD-R/RW recorders may not be played on
this unit due to the difference in recording platforms.
• Do not affix any type of labels to either side (recordable or labeled side) of a CD-R/RW disc as this may
result in the unit malfunctioning.
• To avoid damages to the CD-R/RW disc, do not open the disc compartment door while the disc is being
read.
• Do not load an unrecorded CD-R/RW disc into the unit. This may take a longer time to read the disc.
• Playback capability for CD-RW discs may vary due to variations in the quality of the CD-RW disc
and the recorder used to create the disc.

What’s so special about this audio CD / MP3 disc player?
Besides traditional audio CDs, this player is meant to play MP3 files encoded on a CD-ROM. You can store up to
12 hours of music on a single disc (at 128kbps).
Creating MP3 CDs requires the use of a computer with a CD-R / CD-RW writer and a music management soft-
ware (MusicMatch Jukebox recommended).
To fully enjoy the functionalities of your MP3 CD player, we recommend you to record your MP3 CD using fold-
ers and subfolders.
