Listening caution
The remote control
Battery installation
EST. 1924
R6, AA, UM-3
We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort
level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds
“normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe
level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing
damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
Placement of speakers
Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right
channel orientation is necessary.
Before use
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now
it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics
Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by
playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come
through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Use of batteries
• Align the poles (+ and –) properly when inserting the
batteries.
• Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of
batteries.
• Do not recharge ordinary dry cell batteries.
• Do not heat or disassemble the batteries. Do not allow
them to contact with flame or water.
• Remove the batteries if the unit is not to be used for a long
time.
• Do not keep together with metallic objects such as
necklaces.
• Do not use rechargeable type batteries.
• Do not use batteries if the covering has been peeled off.
Mishandling of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage
which can damage items the fluid contacts and may cause a
fire.
If electrolyte leaks from the batteries, consult your dealer.
Wash thoroughly with water if electrolyte comes in contact
with any part of your body.
Correct method of use
Remote control
signal sensor
Notes
• Keep your speakers at least 10mm (13/32˝) away from the
system for proper ventilation.
• These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not
place them near televisions, personal computers or other
devices easily influenced by magnetism.
• To avoid damage to the speakers, do not touch the
speaker cones if you have taken the nets off.
Transmission
window
About 7 meters in
front of the signal
sensor.
Operation notes
• Do not place obstacles between the remote control signal
sensor and remote control unit.
• Do not expose the remote control signal sensor to direct
sunlight or to the bright light of a fluorescent light.
• Take care to keep the remote control signal sensor and the
end of the remote control unit free from dust.
• If this system is installed in a rack with glass doors, the
glass doors’ thickness or color might make it necessary to
use the remote control unit a shorter distance from the
system.
To prevent damage
• Never place heavy items on top of the unit.
• Do not disassemble or reconstruct the unit.
• Do not spill water or other liquids into the unit.

How discs with MP3/WMA differ
from CDs
Example: MP3
This unit can play MP3 and WMA files recorded on CD-R/
RW with a computer.
Files are treated as tracks and folders are treated as albums.
This unit can access up to 999 tracks, 255 albums and 20
sessions.
root
001????.mp3
When making MP3/WMA files to play on this
unit
002????.mp3
Disc format
Discs must conform to ISO9660 level 1 or 2 (except for
extended formats).
003????.mp3
001????.mp3
002
002????.mp3
003????.mp3
003
001????.mp3
002????.mp3
File format
• MP3 files must have the extension “.MP3” or “.mp3”.
• WMA files must have the extension “.WMA” or “.wma”.
To play in a certain order
Prefix the folder and file names with 3-digits numbers in the
order you want to play them.
Files may not be recorded in numbered order if the prefixes
have different numbers of digits.
For example: 1????.mp3, 2????.mp3, 10????.mp3.
However, some writing software may also cause recording
to occur in a different order.

WMA is a compression format
developed by Microsoft Corporation. It achieves the same
sound quality as MP3 with a
file size that is smaller than that
of MP3.
Note
• When creating a WMA disc, ensure the copyright feature
is off.
• Noise may occur when playing WMA files.
Limitations on MP3/WMA play
• This unit is not compatible with packet-write format.
• When both MP3/WMA and CD-DA data is recorded on the
disc over a number of sessions:
• If the first session contains MP3/WMA recordings, the unit
will play from the MP3/WMA made in that session till the
session before the first CD-DA recordings.
• If the first session contains CD-DA recordings, the unit will
play only the recordings made in that session. The
subsequent sessions will be ignored.
• You cannot use 1-Disc Random play, All-Disc Random play
and search function.
• Some MP3/WMA may not be played due to the condition of
the disc or recording.
• Recordings will not necessarily be played in the order you
recorded them.
