CD-R and CD-RW discs that have been properly recorded and
finalized using the music CD format.
CD-R and CD-RW discs that have been recorded with MP3/WMA files
and properly finalized.
0 If you try to play any other type of disc with this unit, loud noises
that damage speakers or harm hearing could occur. Never try to
play any type of disc other than those shown above.
0 This unit might not be able to properly play Copy Control CDs, Dual
Discs or other special CDs that do not conform to the Red Book CD
standard. Operation and sound quality cannot be guaranteed when
special discs are used in this unit. If playback of a special disc
should cause trouble, contact the seller of the disc.
0 Be sure to finalize discs created by CD recorders.
0 Depending on the quality of the disc and the condition of the
recording, playback might not be possible. For details, see the
operation manual for the device you are using.
Precautions for use
0 Do not use cracked discs because they could damage the unit.
0 Never use commercially-available CD stabilizers. Doing so could
make the disc unplayable or damage the unit.
0 Do not use discs which have a special shape (such as hearts or
octagons). These types of discs could cause malfunction of the unit.
0 If a CD-R/CD-RW disc that has a printable label surface is left in
this unit for a long time, it could stick to the inside and become
extremely difficult to remove and possibly even cause the unit to
malfunction. Always remove such discs and store them in cases
when not in use. Moreover, avoid using discs that have just been
printed because they are especially prone to sticking.
0 Do not use discs with residue from cellophane tape, rental discs
with labels which are peeling off, or discs with decorative labels.
This type of disc could get stuck in the unit, or could damage the
unit.
Handling discs
0 Always load discs with their labeled sides up.
0 Be careful when handling discs. If the side that contains the data
(unlabeled side) is scratched, smudged with fingerprints or
otherwise dirty or marred, errors could occur during playback.
0 To remove a disc from its case, while pressing down on the center
of the case, hold the disc by its edges.
0 If you have any questions about how to handle a CD-R or CD-RW
disc, contact the seller of the disc directly.
Disc storage
0 After you finish using a disc, always put it back into its case for
storage. Failure to do so could result in warping and scratches.
0 Do not leave discs in places that are exposed to direct sunlight or
that are very humid or hot. Doing so could cause discs to become
deformed or degraded, making them unplayable.
0 CD-R and CD-RW discs are more susceptible to the impacts of
heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. For this reason, do not
leave them for long times in places that are exposed to direct
sunlight or near devices that generate heat, for example.
0 Always clean discs before storing them. Leaving a disc in an
unclean state might result in skipping or degraded sound quality.

Maintenance
0 If the side of the disc that has the data encoded on it (unlabeled
side) becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, use a soft cloth to wipe
the surface from the center directly toward the edge.
0 Never use record cleaners, antistatic treatments, thinners or similar
chemicals to clean discs. Such chemicals could harm the surface of
the disc.

0 The unit recognizes MP3 and WMA files by their file extensions,
