Otherwise these will raise the interior temperature of the unit, and
it may lead to smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit.
❑
Do not use the product where it is exposed to water,
moisture, or dust.
Exposure of the unit to water, moisture, or dust may lead to
smoke, fire, or other damage to the unit. Make especially sure that
the unit does not get wet in car washes or on rainy days.
Observe the following cautions when installing.
❑
Refer wiring and installation to qualified service person-
nel.

TEXT
¡
You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs
recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due
to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
¡
CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and
high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them
inside a car for extended periods may damage and make
playback impossible.
¡
Some CD-R/RWs cannot be played back successfully due
to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder
(CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.
¡
This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is
not closed.
¡
This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain
other than CD-DA or MP3/WMA data (Video CD, etc.).
¡
Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc
for handling it.
Recording MP3/WMA files on a CD-media
¡
You are recommended to minimize the chances of mak-
ing a disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA
files.
¡
If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA files,
the songs may not play in the intended order, or some
songs may not play at all.
¡
When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc,
use different folders for each data.
¡
Do not record files other than MP3/WMA files and unnec-
essary folder on a disc.
¡
The name of MP3/WMA file should be added by rules as
shown in the following descriptions and also comply with
the rules of each file system.
¡
You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files or
displaying the information of MP3/WMA files recorded with
certain writing software or CD recorders.
¡
The file extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be assigned to
each file depending on the file format.
¡
This unit does not have the play list function.
¡
Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of
Disc-at-Once is recommended.
Supported file systems
