Operating precautions
<Your CD5425E will perform well over a long period of time through correct handling and care.>
Notes on operation
• For your safety, play only at volume levels that allow outside sounds to be heard.
• We recommend using with this player a disc with the logo shown
to the left.
• You can play music CDs(CD-R/CD-RW) on this player. Be sure to
use discs that have been properly processed.
Depending on the editing equipment used, some discs may not
play properly.
TEXT
• Do not insert anything other than a CD into the head unit.
Do not insert any foreign objects, such as coins or credit cards,
into the disc slot. Be especially watchful of children’s mischief in
this regard.
• Avoid severe mechanical shock.
When the player is subjected to severe vibration while traveling
over a rough surface, playback may be intermittent. When a
situation like this occurs, resume playback after returning to a
smoother road.
• About dew condensation.
In cold or rainy weather, just as the interior glass surface gets
fogged, dew (water condensation) may also settle on the deck.
When this occurs, disc playback may become intermittent or
impossible. Dehumidify the air in the vehicle for a while before
resuming playback.
• Cleaning the disc slot.
The disc slot tends to get dusty. Clean it occasionally to prevent
accumulated dust from scratching the discs.

How to operate the CD player
About compact discs
• The signal recorded on a compact disc is read by a laser beam, so nothing touches the disc surface.
A scratch on the recorded surface or a badly warped disc may cause deteriorated sound quality or
intermittent playback. Observe the following precautions to ensure high quality sound performance:
III
• Do not leave an ejected disc in the disc slot for very long; the disc
may warp. Discs should be stored in their cases and kept away
from high temperature and humidity.
IV
• Do not stick a piece of paper or tape. Do not write on or scratch
either side of a disc.
• Discs spin at a high speed inside the deck. Keep cracked or
warped discs out of the player to avoid damage it.
• Avoid touching the recorded surface when handling a disc; handle
discs by their edges.
About brand new CDs
Rough Edges
• You may notice that some brand new discs are rough around the
centre hole or outside edge. Remove the rough edges with the
Ballpoint pen
side of a ballpoint pen, etc. Rough edges may prevent proper
loading in the deck. Flakes from the rough edges may also stick to
the recorded surface and interfere with playback.

Operation
About CD accessories
• Do not use accessories (stabilizers, protective seals, laser lens
cleaners, etc.) sold for "improving sound performance" or "protecting
CDs." The changes in CD thickness or outside dimensions made by
these accessories may cause problems in the player.
•
Please be sure NOT to attach any ring-shape protector (or other
accessory) to your discs. Those protectors are commercially available
and said to protect disc and to improve sound quality (and antivibration
effect), but they can do more harm than good in regular uses. The most
common problems are disc insertion, disc ejections, and won't play
problems due to the protector ring that came off in the disc mechanism.
About borrowed CDs
• Do not use a CD with glue or remnants of adhesive tape or labels. They may cause the CD to get
stuck inside or damage the deck.
How to remove CDs
• When removing the ejected disc, pull it straight out along the slot.
Pressing downward in the process may scratch the recorded surface
of the disc.
OKAY
About irregularly-shaped CDs
• Specially-shaped CDs, like heart-shaped or octagonal CDs, cannot be
played. Do not attempt to play them, even with an adapter, since they
may damage the player.
•
About cleaning a CD
• Use a commercially available compact disc cleaner to clean a CD,
wiping gently from the centre to the edge.
• Do not use benzine, thinner, LP record spray or other cleaners on
XXXX
CDs. They may damage a CD’s finish.

About MP3
ATTENTION
The making of MP3 files by recording from sources such as broadcasts, records, recordings, videos and
live performances without permission from the copyright holder for uses other than personal enjoyment is
prohibited.
What is MP3?
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer III) is a standard format for audio compression technology. By using MP3
a file can be compressed to one-tenth the size of the original.
This deck has limitations on MP3 file standards and recorded media and formats that can be used.
Playable MP3 file standards
• Supported standards:MPEG-1 Audio Layer III
• Supported sampling frequencies: 44.1, 48 (kHz)
•
Supported bit rate: 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256, 288, 320 (kbps)
* Supports VBR. (64~320kbps)
* Does not support free format.
• Supported channel modes: stereo
ID3 tag
MP3 files have an "ID3 Tag" that allows input of information so that data such as song title and artist
can be saved.
This deck supports ID3v. 1.0, 1.1 tags.
Media
Media capable of playing MP3 includes CD-R and CD-RW discs. Compared to CD-ROM media
commonly used for music discs, CD-R and CD-RW discs are fragile in high temperature/high
humidity environments and one section of the CD-R and CD-RW may become incapable of
playback. Fingerprints or scratches on the disc may prevent playback or cause skipping during
playback. Sections of a CD-R and CD-RW may deteriorate if left inside a vehicle for long periods of
time. It is also recommended that CD-R and CD-RW discs be kept in a light-blocking case because
the discs are vulnerable to ultra-violet light.
„ 84 „
How to operate the MP3 player
Format of discs
The format of discs to be used must be ISO9660 Level 1 or Level 2.
Control items for this standard are as follows:
• Maximum directory layers:
8 layers
•
•

File names
Only files with the MP3 file extension ".mp3" can be recognised as MP3 and played. Be sure to save MP3
files with the ".mp3" file extension. The "MP" letters of the file extension will be recognised whether
entered as uppercase letters or lowercase letters.
CAUTION
If the ".mp3" file extension is attached to a file other than an MP3 file, that file will be mistakenly
recognised by the deck as an MP3 file and played, resulting in loud noise output that can damage
the speakers. Be sure to avoid attaching the ".mp3" file extension to files that are not MP3 files.
Multi-sessions
Multi-sessions are supported, and playing of CD-R and CD-RW discs with annotated MP3 files is

FM reception characteristics
In general, FM has much better tonal quality than AM. However, FM and FM stereo reception encounter
several characteristic problems not encountered with AM. FM is more difficult to receive than AM in a
moving vehicle. The following are explanatory notes on what to expect from FM reception and on how
to get satisfactory performance.
FM reception differs from AM
A characteristic of transmitted signals is that lower frequencies
AM Radio Wave
travel further. FM frequencies are much higher than AM's (similar to
a ray of light): they won’t bend but they will reflect. Often, they will
be interrupted by tall buildings, mountains, etc., taking direct and
indirect paths to your vehicle’s antenna. The distance at which FM
stations can be received satisfactorily is usually not nearly as far as
that which AM stations can be received.
Ionosphere
FM Radio Wave
Ionosphere
Fading out
In weak signal or "fringe" reception areas, FM stations may fade out completely, or fade in and out.
When driving in weak signal areas, such as near hills, through valleys or tunnels, among tall
buildings, etc., you may encounter unusual noise interference. THIS IS NOT A TUNER PROBLEM.
In this case, you can only wait until you are in a better reception area, tune to a stronger station, or
reduce the treble level.
„ 90 „
How to operate the tuner
Reception area of FM broadcasts
A home receiver can catch weak FM stereo signals
through the use of a tall, directional or ultra-sensitive
antenna. In a moving vehicle, the area for good
reception is limited because of varying conditions
encountered while driving, including the types and
heights of broadcast antenna structures, signal strength,
engine noise, etc. For best reception with manual
antenna, extend the antenna mast as far as possible.
Transmitting Antenna 100 Meters High
Effective Radiation Power 1kW
FM Stereo Car Radio 20 km
FM Monaural Car Radio 50 km
Home FM Stereo Receiver 100 km
Reception quality varies depending on the power of
the FM station, natural and artificial barriers, weather
conditions, etc.
VI
Multipath
The reflection characteristics of FM waves cause
another problem called multipath–FM wave signals
reflecting off of buildings, mountains, etc. When the
antenna receives direct and reflected waves at the
same time, distortion of sound in the treble range often
occurs, such as static or harsh-sounding voices. THIS
IS NOT A TUNER PROBLEM. Only moving to another
area with a clearer signal path can remedy the situation.

How to operate the Sound Adjustment Mode
About Sound Adjustment Mode
This unit is equipped with various functions to compensate the acoustic characteristics inside the
vehicle.
The following adjustments can be made in the sound adjustment mode.
• Crossover (FRONT/REAR/NON-FADER)
• Switching the non fader phase.
Crossover
The frequency band that is stored by audio media such as CDs is a fairly wide range from 20 Hz to 20
kHz, and it is difficult for a single speaker to be able to play back all frequencies in such a wide range.
Because of this, several speakers can be used, with different frequency bands (such as treble,
medium and bass) allotted to each speaker so that wide frequency ranges can be played back.
The "Crossover" function is used to allot the frequency ranges that are to be played back by each
speaker in accordance with the installed speaker units and the layout of the speakers, in order to
obtain the maximum level of performance from the speakers and to provide the most stable
frequency characteristics.
The crossover function includes a high-pass filter (HPF) for playing back treble sounds, and a low-
pass filter (LPF) for playing back bass sounds. In addition, the HPF and LPF are used in
combination in order to play back sounds in the medium range.
-3dB
Bass range
Mid range
Treble range
20Hz
20kHz
fc1(LPF)
fc2(HPF)
fc3(LPF)
fc4(HPF)
fc*: Cutoff frequency
For example, when adjusting the HPF, frequencies that are lower than the specified frequency are
progressively dampened, rather than simply not being played back at all. The "slope" adjustment
function is the function that is used to adjust these dampening characteristics.
The slope characteristics of a filter are such that with larger slope values (for example 12 dB/oct),
the slope becomes steeper, and so the amount of sound mixing in with neighboring bands becomes
less so that only the target band is played back. However, it also causes the merging of sound
between speakers to become poorer and can result in greater distortion.
• The crossover function is a filter that allocates specified frequency bands.
• A high-pass filter (HPF) is a filter that cuts out frequencies that are lower than the specified
frequency (bass range) and allows higher frequencies (treble range) to pass through.
• A low-pass filter (LPF) is a filter that cuts out frequencies that are higher than the specified
frequency (treble range) and allows lower frequencies (bass range) to pass through.
• The slope is the signal level at which frequencies that are one octave higher or one octave lower
are dampened.
The larger the slope value, the greater the slope. In addition, when "PASS" is selected, the slope
is eliminated (sound does not pass through the filters), so that the crossover function has no
effect.
„ 110 „
How to operate the Sound Adjustment Mode
When this deck is in normal mode, it corresponds to basic speaker systems which comprise front
speakers, rear speakers, and subwoofer. In such cases, the crossover can be used to apply the
HPF to the front and rear speakers and the LPF to the sub-woofer so that the sound from all
speakers merges properly. In addition to the 4 speaker system, in pro mode, the adjustments can be
made to suit speaker system where the front speaker, rear speaker and non-fader output can be
switched between Hi, Mid or Low output and the speakers can be combined according to each
range (treble range: tweeter, mid range: mid, bass range: woofer) to provide 3-way playback. In this
case, the crossover function can be used to adjust the playback ranges so that the HPF is applied to
the treble-range speakers, the HPF and LPF is applied to the Mid-range speakers, and the LPF is
applied to the bass-range speakers so that the sound from all speakers merges properly.

Non-Fader phase
The sounds that are output from woofers include sounds that are in the same frequency ranges that
are output from the front and rear speakers, and under the various conditions that can occur inside
vehicle compartments, some of these sounds may cancel each other out. This phenomenon can be
eliminated by changing the phase of the woofer.
The phase of the woofer can be set to normal timing (in which the output timing between the front
and rear speakers and the woofer is the same) or reverse timing (in which the output timing between
the front and rear speakers and the woofer is different), depending on the vehicle compartment
conditions.
