Notes on playing a CD-R or CD-RW: • The built-in CD Recorder can play back both finalized and unfinalized CD-Rs/CD-RWs, however 3-CD Changer cannot play back unfinalized CD-RWs. • Either on 3-CD Changer or on CD Recorder, you can play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded on a personal computer only if they have been recorded in the CD audio format. Also 3-CD Changer can play back CD-Rs/CD-RWs (single session) including MP3 tracks (files). • Some CD-Rs and CD-RWs may not be played back either on 3-CD Changer or on CD Recorder because of their disc characteristics, damage or stains. Important notice: • Continuous use of irregular–shaped discs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the disc rotating mechanism. • CD-RWs may require a longer read-out time. This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs. • MP3 discs require a longer read-out time. It differs depending on the complexity of the group/track configuration. CD ReWritable (CD-RW) CD Recordable (CD-R) In addition to the logos shown above, the words shown below or their equivalent should also be indicated somewhere on the package or accompanying documentation. • FOR CONSUMER • FOR CONSUMER USE • FOR MUSIC USE ONLY Make sure the words, DIGITAL AUDIO, is shown on the discs. The following discs cannot be used for recording: • Discs bearing logos other than the above. • Discs intended for professional use. • Discs intended for recording computer data. Important notice: • The manufacturer assumes no liability whatsoever for any damage resulting from missed opportunity or accidental erasure that occurs while conducting recording or playback operations due to malfunctioning of or trouble in the unit, or for any incidental damage. • Before recording on a CD-R, it is recommended to make a test recording using a CD-RW. • If PCA (Power Calibration Area) or PMA (Program Memory Area) of the disc is already recorded fully, any further recording cannot be performed on this disc even though there are still unused memory spaces on the disc. (See “Glossary” on page 42.) • DO NOT subject the unit to any shock or vibration while recording. • DO NOT use a dusty or scratched CD-R/ CD-RW for recording; otherwise, you cannot obtain the satisfactory recording quality. It should be noted that it may be unlawful to re-record pre-recorded tapes, records, or discs without the consent of the owner of copyright in the sound or video recording, broadcast or cable program and in any literary, dramatic, musical, or artistic embodied therein. 3 01-17.XL-R5020BK_f 3 02.5.30, 0:02 PM Parts Identification See pages in the parentheses for details.

About MP3 MP3 Disc Structure MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 kbps*). That means, by using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can. MP3 “tracks (files)” can be recorded in “groups (directories)”—in PC terminology. During recording, the tracks and groups can be arranged in a way similar to arranging files and directories of computer data. “Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every track and group can be linked to and be accessed from the root. * Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio The illustration below shows an example of how MP3 tracks are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back, and how they are searched for on this 3-CD Changer.

When using a microphone, connect a microphone with a standard 6.3 mm plug. • Perform recording onto a CD-R AUDIO or CD-RW AUDIO disc (see page 3). • When you record onto a partially recorded unfinalized CD-R or CD-RW, its contents are not erased or overwritten. The recording starts from the point following the last recorded track of the disc. For CD-RW only: If you want to record on such a CD-RW from the beginning, you have to erase its contents first (see “Erasing all tracks (only for CD-RW)—Disc Erase” on page 36). (You cannot erase the contents recorded on a CD-R.) • You can record up to 99 tracks on a CD-R or CD-RW. When the data recordable memory area of a CD-R or CD-RW becomes full while recording, recording will stop automatically. • If PCA (Power Calibration Area) or PMA (Program Memory Area) of the disc is recorded fully, recording cannot be performed on this disc even though there are still unused memory spaces on it. • Before recording on a CD-R, it is recommended to make a test recording on a CD-RW. • You cannot perform digital-recording from the digitally recorded CD-R or CD-RW because only the first generation digital copy is allowed; This is to protect copyrights (see page 42). • CD Recorder automatically selects appropriate recording—either digital or analog—during CD Synchronized Recording. When digital source is selected as the playback sound, it will be recorded digitally if it is a first-generation digital copy (see page 42). If not, CD Recorder selects analog recording. • MP3 files cannot be recorded on this CD Recorder. If you are going to record MP3 files on CD Recorder, “CANNOT REC” appears on the display. • Before recording, finalizing, or adding track skip marks, make sure that all the disc trays are closed. You cannot open any disc tray while these operations are done. Available recording methods This CD Recorder provides a variety of the recording methods. You can select and use the following recording methods according to the playback source. Microphone (not supplied) After connecting, turn on the microphone if it has the ON/OFF switch. Finalization This is the final process in recording on a CD-R or CD-RW. “Finalizing a disc” means writing the TOC (Table of Contents) on the recorded disc. Only after this process is completed, a recorded CD-R or CD-RW can be played back on a CD player compatible with CD-R/CD-RW. It is also recommended to finalize a disc before playing back on this 3-CD Changer. CD-R : You cannot add any track after finalizing. CD-RW : You can add tracks after finalizing by unfinalizing the disc (see page 34). About track-marking Whenever you turn on the unit, auto track-marking is activated. (The AUTO TRACK indicator lights up on the display.) When auto track-marking is activated • Recording from 3-CD Changer (CD DIGITAL, CD ANALOG): Track marks are recorded automatically at the points where the tracks change. • Recording from an external component connected to the LINE IN and MIC jacks (LINE IN, MIC IN, CD+LINE MIX, CD+MIC MIX, LINE+MIC MIX): If there is a blank of 4 seconds or more, CD Recorder will consider it as a blank separating 2 tracks and consequently put a track mark. • Recording through the DIGITAL IN terminals (OPTICAL IN, COAXIAL IN): —If the playback source is an MD recorder, CD player or DAT deck, they are recorded automatically at the points where the tracks change. —If the playback source is other than above, this unit functions in the same way for recording an analog source.

Do not touch its recording surface. When storing a disc into its case, gently insert the disc around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up). • Make sure to store discs into the cases after use. • Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case. • Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture. To clean the disc Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge. To play new discs New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc. To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ballpoint pen, etc. Moisture condensation Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the unit in the following cases: • After starting the heater. • When the unit is moved from the extremely hot place to the extremely cold place. Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates. • DO NOT expose discs to direct sunlight or any heat source or place them in a place subject to high temperature and humidity. • DO NOT leave discs in a car.

PCA (Power Calibration Area) A space reserved at the beginning of a CD-R/CD-RW for calibrating the laser output power required to record on that disc. PMA (Program Memory Area) A temporary memory area on a CD-R/CD-RW, where the information about the recordings on the disc—track numbers, tracks’ start points and end points, etc. is stored until the disc is finalized. When the disc is finalized, this information is written in the TOC (see below). Sampling Frequency When analog signal are converted into digital signals, they are divided into many points and digitized. This dividing method is called “sampling.” The sampling frequency indicates how many points one second is divided into—for example, for CD sound, one second is divided into 44 100 points since its sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz. SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) Digital audio components, such as CD recorder, MD (Mini-Disc) recorder and DAT (Digital Audio Tape) recorder, can exchange audio signal in the digital forms through digital input/output terminals. The digital audio components allow digital copy of music signal with little deterioration. This has made it necessary to have a copy restriction rule for protecting the copyright, and “SCMS (Serial Copy Management System)” has been established as a result. To protect the copyright, the SCMS allows only first-generation digital copies to be made from premastered software (like CDs or prerecorded MDs). DIGITAL ABCDEFG OK ABCDEFG DIGITAL NO ABCDEFG TOC (Table of Contents) TOC is a kind of disc information containing sub-data (track number, playing time, etc.) that enables us to search for tracks quickly on the disc.
