Introduction

About This Manual

This manual is organized as follows:

•The manual mainly explains operations using the

buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the

buttons on the remote control if they have the same or

similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.

If operation using the remote control is different from

that using the unit, it is then explained.

• Basic and common information that is the same for many

functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in

each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the

information about turning on/off the unit, setting the

volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are

explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9

to 12.

• The following marks are used in this manual:

Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent

from damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

Also gives you information which is not good

for obtaining the best possible performance

from the unit.

Gives you information and hints you had better

know.

Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor

too cold—between 5˚C and 35˚C.

• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to

prevent internal heat buildup in the unit.

• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference

with TV.

DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat

sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,

excessive dust or vibration.

obtain the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual

for future reference.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the

following cases:

• After heating starts in the room

• In a damp room

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place

Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, leave

the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates,

unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.

Internal heat

A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel to prevent heat

buildup inside the unit.

For safety, observe the following carefully:

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the

unit. Poor ventilation could overheat and damage

the unit.

• DO NOT block the cooling fan and the ventilation

openings or holes. If they are blocked by a

newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be

able to get out.

Others

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,

unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating

any further.

• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended

period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall

outlet.

This unit has been designed to play back the following discs:

• CD (Audio CD)

• CD-R (CD-Recordable)

• CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)

• MP3 disc (MP3 files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW)

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs

(CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already

“finalized.”

• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded

in music CD format or in MP3 format. (However, they may

not be played back depending on their characteristics or

recording conditions.)

• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their

instructions or cautions carefully.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this

unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain

on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused

by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for

regular discs.

About the CD ready lamps

Each CD ready lamp corresponds to the disc tray of the

same number.

• When they light up?

– When you turn on the unit for the first time after

plugging into a wall outlet, all CD ready lamps (CD1

READY, CD2 READY, and CD3 READY) light up.

From the next time on, CD ready lamp(s) light(s) up

according to the previous condition.

– Each time you press the disc tray open/close buttons

—0 (CD1, CD2, and CD3), the corresponding CD

ready lamp lights up.

• When they go off?

Only when the unit detects there is no disc loaded on a

certain tray, the corresponding CD ready lamp goes off.

(“NO DISC 1,” “NO DISC 2,” or “NO DISC 3”

appears on the display.)

• When they flash?

The corresponding CD ready lamp flashes during

playback and pause.

If the loaded disc is an MP3 disc

The corresponding CD ready lamp and the MP3 indicator will

light up.

Disc Play Introduction

MP3 Introduction

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1

(or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format

with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 kbps*). By using

MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contains 10 times as

much data volume as a regular CD can.

* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio

data will consume. The unit uses kbps (1,000 bits per second). To

get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most

popular bit rate for encoding (recording) is 128 kbps.

MP3 disc structure

On an MP3 disc, each song (material) is recorded as a file.

Files are grouped into a directory (or folder). Directories can

also include other directories, creating hierarchical directory

layers. (See “How are MP3 files recorded and played back?”

on page 15.)

This unit manages files and directories as “tracks” and “groups.”

This unit can recognize up to 255 tracks per disc, up to 64 groups

per disc. The unit ignores those exceeding the maximum

numbers and cannot play them back.

About MP3 discs

• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time.

(It varies due to the complexity of the recording configuration.)

• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 as

the disc format.

• This unit does not support multisession recording.

• This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file extensions—

“.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”

• Files other than MP3 are ignored.

• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc

characteristics or recording conditions.

English

How are MP3 files recorded and played back?

MP3 “tracks (files)” can be recorded in “group”—folders or

directories, in PC terminology.

During recording, the tracks and groups can be arranged

similarly to the tracks and folders/directories of computer

data. “Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every track and

group can be linked to the root.

In compliance with ISO 9660, the maximum allowable depth

of nested directories—so called “hierarchy”—is eight

(inclusive of the root).

Playback order, track search order, and group search order of

the MP3 tracks recorded on a disc are determined by the

writing (or encoding) application; therefore, playback order

may be different from the one you have intended while

recording the groups and the tracks.

The illustration shows an ordinary example of how MP3

tracks are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are

played back and how they are searched for on this unit.

• The numbers in circles next to the MP3 tracks ( ) indicate

the playback order and search order of the MP3 tracks.

Normally this unit plays back MP3 tracks in the recorded

order.

• The numbers inside the groups indicate the playback order

and search order of the groups on an MP3 disc. Normally

this unit plays back MP3 tracks in the groups in the

recorded order.

The groups marked with asterisk (*) will be skipped since

they do not include any MP3 tracks.

Using Recording Timer

With Recording Timer, you can make a tape of a radio

broadcast automatically.

How Recording Timer actually works

The unit automatically turns on, tunes in to the specified

station, sets the volume level to “VOLUME MIN,” and starts

recording when the on-time comes (“REC” and the REC

indicator flash just before the on-time, and the REC indicator

continues flashing while the timer is operating). Then, when

the off-time comes (“REC OFF” flashes just before the off-

time), the unit automatically turns off (on standby).

The timer setting remains in memory until you change it.

• There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the setting

is canceled before you finish, start from step

again.

• To correct a misentry while setting the timer, press

CANCEL/DEMO.

On the unit ONLY:

Insert a recordable cassette with the exposed

part of the tape down.

Press CLOCK/TIMER

repeatedly until “REC”

appears on the display.

The (Timer) indicator lights up and the REC

(Recording Timer) indicator also starts flashing on the

display.

• Each time you press the button, the timer setting modes

change as follows:

Press CLOCK/TIMER again.

“TIMER” appears for 2 seconds, then the

unit enters on-time setting mode.

Handling cassette tapes

• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take

up the slack by inserting a pencil in one

of the reels and rotating.

• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched,

cut, or caught in the cassette.

• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.

• Avoid the following places to store the

tape:

— In dusty places

— In direct sunlight or heat

— In moist areas

— Near a magnet

Cleaning the unit

• Stains on the unit

Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit 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 unit 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 strong.

— 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 with it for a long time.

General Notes

In general, you will have the best performance by keeping

your discs and the mechanism clean.

• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on

shelves.

• Keep the unit’s disc trays closed when not in use.

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

to prevent warping.

• 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.

Continued use of irregular shape discs

(heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can

damage the unit.

DO NOT use any solvent—such as conventional

record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine—to clean

the disc.
