* When the System is in use, the display shows other items as well.
For simplicity, we show here only the items described in this section.
This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:
• Audio CD
• CD-R (CD-Recordable)
*For MP3 discs
• This unit manages files and folders on MP3 discs as “tracks”
and “albums.”
• Playback order of the MP3 files (tracks) recorded on a disc are
determined by the writing (or encoding) application; therefore,
playback order may be different from the one you have
intended while recording the files and the folders.
• This unit shows the file (track) names and ID3v1 tags (only
“Title”, “Artist” and “Album”) on the display after starts play;
however, there is a limitation on available characters and some
file names and ID3 tags are not shown correctly.
• CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)
• MP3 disc (MP3 files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW)*
Only CDs bearing these marks can
be used with this System. However,
continued use of irregular shape
CDs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.)
can damage the System.

Recordable
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
More about MP3 discs
• User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWri-
table) can be played back when they are already “finalized.”
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions
or cautions carefully.
• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer read-
out time. (It varies due to the complexity of the recording
configuration.)
• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or
Level 2 as the disc format.
• This unit does not support multisession recording.
• This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file ex-
tensions— “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”
• Non-MP3 files are ignored. If non-MP3 files are recorded
together with MP3 files, this unit will take a longer time to
scan the disc. It may also cause the unit to malfunction.
• Non-MP3 folders are counted when reading disc, but ig-
nored during playing back.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit
because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them,
or if the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflect-
ance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.
• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of
their disc characteristics or recorded conditions.
Caution for DualDisc playback
The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the
“Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard. Therefore, the use of
Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recom-
mended.

Recording onto a cassette from any of the sound sources is simple.
Just place a tape in Deck B, have the source ready, make one or
two settings, and you’re ready to record. For each source, the pro-
cedure is a little bit different so we explain each separately. But
first, here are a few things to make your recordings better.
CAUTION:
• If a recording you make has excessive noise or
static, the Unit may have been too close to a TV
which was on during the recording. Either turn
off the TV or increase the distance between the
TV and the Unit.
Things To Know Before You Start Recording
❏ It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted
material without the consent of the copyright owner.
❏ The recording level, which is the volume at which the new tape
is being made, is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected
by the VOLUME Control on the System. Also, it is not affected
by adjusting the sound effects. Thus, during recording, you can
adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting
the recording level.
❏ Two small tabs on the back of the cassette tape, one for side A
and one for side B, can be removed to prevent accidental erasure
or recording.
Adhesive tape
❏ To record on a cassette with the tabs removed, you must cover
the holes with adhesive tape first.
❏ Type I tape can be used for recording.
• At the start and end of cassette tapes, there is leader tape
which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording
CDs, radio broadcasts, etc., wind on the leader tape first
to ensure getting the beginning of the recording.

Using the Cassette Deck (Recording)
Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Deck
B and wind past the tape leader.

Standard Recording
Press the CD REC START button on the Unit.
“CD REC” appears on the display and the “REC” indicator
lights up and the Tape indicator (3) blinks. Then, the System
begins CD Synchro Recording and the tracks on the CD are re-
corded on the tape.
When recording of the tracks of all CDs is finished, the CD
Player and Cassette Deck stop.
• If the tab of the cassette tape on the Deck B is removed to
prevent erasure or recording, “NO REC” will appear on the
display.
• After the CD Player has played the entire CD or all the pro-
grammed tracks, the tape automatically stops.
This is the basic method for recording any source. The System also
has special ways for recording CD to tape, and tape to tape, which
save you time and effort, as well as give you some special effects.
However, when you need to add a selection to a tape you have
made, or are combining selections from several sources on one
tape, use the method described below; just substitute the source
you want into this procedure, such as a tape in Deck A, a CD, or
the Tuner. You can also record from an external equipment with
this procedure.
To Record Any Sound Source to Tape
Follow these steps to record from any sound source onto a tape in
Deck B.
To stop at any time during the recording process, press
the 7 button. The CD Player and the Cassette Deck will be stopped.
Insert a blank or erasable tape into the Deck
B and wind past the tape leader.

on the display.
To stop during recording, press the REC START/STOP but-

Setting the SLEEP Timer
Timer Priority
Use the Sleep Timer to turn the System off after a certain number
of minutes when it is playing. By setting the Sleep Timer, you can
fall asleep to music and know that your System will turn off by it-
self rather than play all night.
Since REC Timer and DAILY Timer can be set independently, you
may wonder what happens if the settings overlap. Here are the pri-
orities for REC Timer and DAILY Timer:
• Timer with the earlier time setting will have the priority.
Timer will not operate when other Timer is operating.
• If other Timer is set to an exact same time as the REC Timer,
the REC Timer will have the priority.
• You can only set the Sleep Timer when the System is on.

Care And Maintenance
Handle your CDs and tapes carefully, and they will last a long
time.
Cassette Tapes
• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up
the slack by inserting a pencil in one of
the reels and rotating.
• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched,
cut, or caught in the cassette.
Compact Discs
• Remove the CD from its case by holding
it at the edges while pressing the case’s
center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the
CD, or bend the CD.
• Do not touch the tape surface.
• Put the CD back in its case after use to
prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of
the CD when placing it back in the case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, tem-
perature extremes, and moisture.
• Do not store the tape:
- In dusty places
- In direct sunlight or heat
- In moist areas
- On a TV or speaker
• A dirty CD may not play correctly. If a
CD does become dirty, wipe it with a
soft cloth in a straight line from center to
edge.
- Near a magnet
Cassette Deck
• If the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers of the Cassette Deck
become dirty, the following will occur:
- Loss of sound quality
- Discontinuous sound
- Fading
- Incomplete erasure
- Difficulty recording
CAUTION:
• Do not use any solvent (for example, conven-
tional record cleaner, spray thinner, benzine,
etc.) to clean a CD.
• Clean the heads, capstans, and pinch-rollers using a cotton
swab moistened with alcohol.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your
CDs and the mechanism clean.
Pinch-roller
Capstan
• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on
shelves.
• Keep the System’s Top Cover closed when not in use.
Moisture Condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the System in the fol-
lowing cases:
• After turning on heating in the room.
• In a damp room.
• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place.
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave
the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates,
unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in again.
Heads
• If the heads become magnetized, the Unit will produce noise or
lose high frequencies.
• To demagnetize the heads, turn off the Unit, and use a head
demagnetizer (available at electronics and record shops).
