e
Check the file format. This unit can play MP3 and WMA files
(page 7).

ID3 tag information.
Some characters are not shown correctly.
e
If the file information uses Japanese, Chinese or other double-
byte characters, playback is possible but the name will not be
shown correctly.
Since this device uses a microcontroller, external noise and
other interference can cause the unit to malfunction. If this
occurs, turn the power off and restart the operation after wait-
ing about a minute.
Beware of condensation
Condensation could occur when the unit (or a disc) is moved from
a cold to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change.
Vapor in the air could condense on the internal mechanisms, mak-
ing correct operation erratic or impossible. To prevent this, or if this
occurs, leave the unit for one or two hours with its power turned on.
The unit will stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.
Maintenance
If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth or use
diluted mild liquid soap. Never spray liquid directly on this unit. Apply
cleaner to the cleaning cloth and wipe gently. Be certain to remove
any excess completely. Do not use thinner or alcohol as they could
damage the surface of the unit. Allow the surface of the unit to dry
completely before using.
