DO NOT handle the AC power cord with
wet hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense in the lenses on the System in the
following cases:
• After starting to heat 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, then plug it in again.
Internal heat
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the System.
Poor ventilation could overheat and damage the System.
–A cooling fan is inside the System to prevent heat
build-up.
DO NOT block the ventilation openings or
holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper or
cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before
operating any further.
DO NOT disassemble the System since there
are no user serviceable parts inside.
• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall
outlet.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.

set to “PAL (PROG),” the disc/file will be reproduced
using “PAL 60” format; however, if the TV does not
support this format, the screen may not display properly.
• If you play back a PAL disc/file with the color system set
to “NTSC (PROG),” you can watch the playback pictures,
but the following symptoms may occur:
– The items on the menu will be blurred, and be shown
slightly shifted when highlighted.
– This System may not play back some files even though
their formats are listed above.
– The aspect ratio of the picture may differ from the
original aspect ratio.
– The picture movement is not smooth.

Daily Operations—Playback (see pages 8 to 12)
Listening to the Radio:
– MP3/WMA/WAV discs require a longer readout time
than regular CDs. (It depends on the complexity of the
group/file configuration.)
– Some MP3/WMA/WAV files cannot be played back and
will be skipped. This results from their recording
processes and conditions.
• If you store a new station into an occupied preset number,
the previously stored station in that number will be erased.
• When you unplug the AC power cord or if a power failure
occurs, the preset stations may be erased in a few days. If
this happens, preset the stations again.

change to “USB MEMORY” correctly. In this case, press
7, then reactivate “USB MEMORY” as the source.
• On some discs/files, the actual operations may be different
from what is explained in this manual, due to the
programming and disc structure; such differences are not a
malfunction of this System.
– When making MP3/WMA/WAV discs, use ISO 9660
Level 1 or Level 2 for the disc format.

– DO NOT wipe it forcefully.
– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.
– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as
insecticides to it.
– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact
for a long time.
• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge
while pressing the center hole lightly.
• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.
• Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when
placing it back in its case.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures,
and moisture.
To clean the disc:
Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center
to edge.
Troubleshooting
If you are having a problem with your System, check this list
