in damage to the speaker due to
noise production.

media
• It is recommended not to write both CD-
DA files and MP3/WMA/AAC files on a
disc.
• If both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA/AAC
files are on the same disc, tracks may
not be played in the correct order or
some tracks may not be played at all.
• When storing both MP3 data and WMA
data on the same disc, sort and place
them in different folders.

• The file extension ".mp3", ".wma" or
".m4a" should be assigned to files based
on their format independently.
• You may encounter a trouble in playing
MP3/WMA/AAC files or displaying infor-
mation of MP3/WMA/AAC files depend-
ing on the writing software or CD
recorder in use.
