Learning More about This System
Listening to the Radio
(see pages 10 to 12)
• The time shown on the display is based on the built-
in clock of the System, not on the information sent
through DAB or Radio Data System.
• The Enhanced Other Networks function is available
only when tuning in to FM.
Setting the Clock and Using Timers
(see pages 14
and 15)
• You can set the clock and Daily Timer while the Save
Mode is turned on. While setting the clock or Daily
Timer, the display is turning on.
• The clock may gain or lose 1 to 2 minutes per month.
If this happens, readjust the clock.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power
failure occurs, the clock and the timer will be
canceled. You need to set the clock first, then the
timer again.
Timer Priority:
• If you set the Sleep Timer after Daily Timer starts
playing the selected source, Daily Timer is canceled.

Basic and Common Operations
(see pages 5 and 6)
• Pressing one of the source buttons also turns on the
System and starts playing back if the source is ready
or connected.
Playing Back a Disc
(see pages 7 and 8)
• This System cannot play “packet write” discs.
• For MP3/WMA playback...
– In this manual, “file” and “track” are interchangeably
used for MP3/WMA operations.
– This System can show the Tag data (Version 1).
– MP3/WMA discs are required a longer readout time
than regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of
the group/file configuration.)
– Some MP3/WMA files cannot be played back and
will be skipped. This result from their recording
processes and conditions.
– When making MP3/WMA discs, use ISO 9660 Level 1
or Level 2 for the disc format.
– This System can play back MP3/WMA files with the
extension code <.mp3> or <.wma> (regardless of
the letter case—upper/lower).
– It is recommended that you make each MP3/WMA
file at a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and at bit rate of
128 kbps. This System cannot play back files made
at bit rate of less than 64 kbps.
– Playback order of MP3/WMA tracks may be different
from the one you have intended while recording. If
a folder does not include MP3/WMA tracks, they are
ignored.
• This System can recognize up to 99 groups in a disc.
The total number of groups and tracks (in a disc) that
can be recognized by the System is 512 (for MP3/
WMA).

• Sound distortion may occur when playing back audio
sources with high recording levels. When distortion
occurs, it is recommended to turn off the equalizer of
the iPod. For information on operating the iPod, see
the iPod instruction manual.
