What is MP3?
SBS function
The SBS function produces rich,
deep bass tones for a more power-
ful overall sound.
ESP function
The ESP function ensures high
resistance to shock or vibration so
that the sound signal remains undis-
turbed ( up to 120 seconds for MP3
and 45 seconds for a CD).
FM Radio Reception
You can listen to FM radio using
various functions such as the
automatic tuning, preset FM
stations, and etc.
Album function
(MP3-CD Only)
The Album function allows easy
browsing and searching of your
favorite tunes by album name, song
title and artist.
Last Memory function (MP3-CD Only)
The Last Memory function allows you
to listen to a song from the point you
left off - handy for when you have to
answer the phone or door.
MP3 means MPEG1 Layer 3, the global standard for audio signal compression technolo-
gy. It uses digital compression technology to compress original sound data by up to 12
times without sound quality degradation.
File Compatibility
●The unit will play back files created in MP3 format (Mpeg1.Layer 3) with *.mp3 as their
extension.
●Files created in MP2 format (Mpeg1.Layer2) with *.mp2 as their extension can also be
played back.
How many MP3 files can a CD-R or CD-RW disc record?
●The maximum capacity of one CD-R or CD-RW disc is 680MB.
Normally, one MP3 file has a capacity of 4MB, therefore approximately 170 files can be
recorded on a single disc.
