because playing time is not displayed properly and sound
may be skipped.
¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the
encoding circumstances. For details, refer to the user

Caution
¡ 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.
¡ 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.

Never assign the “.mp3”, or “.wma” file name

format. This may not only produce noise from
the speaker damage, but also damage your
hearing.
