ity on the TV. Place the speaker farther away from the  
TV set.  
Assemble  
AM loop antenna  
2. Color irregularities on the TV screen may also be pro-  
duced depending on the method how the speakers are  
installed. When color irregularities are observed after  
the speaker installation, first turn the TV off, wait for 15  
to 30 minutes and turn it on again: The interference  
may be improved by the self-demagnetizing function of  
the TV. If the color irregularities still remain, install the  
speakers more apart from the TV.  
P
3. Due to induction by the electromagnetic waves pro-  
duced by a TV, the speakers may produce sound  
even when the stereo unit is turned off. In this case  
also, install the speakers more apart from the TV.

This unit can play CD-DA (8cm, 12cm), VCD, finalized CD-R, disc media of MP3 files on which have been  
finalized or containing a closed session, and the audio part of CD-G/CD-EG (CD graphics) discs and CDV  
discs.  
÷This unit is suitable for the NTSC/PAL method.  
Discs indicated for use with other television systems (SECAM) cannot be used with this unit.  
CD-R  
TheCD-RrecordsdigitaldataofmusicCDorothersourcewithoutcompressionsoitcanbeplayedback  
at equivalent high quality to commercially marketed CDs.  
÷This unit cannot play back a CD-R which has not been finalized.  
÷This unit cannot play other data than audio signal data, such as data signal in a CD-ROM. When a disc containing  
various data, for example a CD Graphic or CD-TEXT is loaded in the unit, the unit cannot play other data than the  
audio signal data.  
In addition to the above, this unit may also be incapable of playing certain CD-R discs depending on the recording  
characteristics of recording equipment (including the pickup), properties of the CD-R in use, its recording condition  
and so on.

Explanation of terms  
VIDEO CD  
This is a CD with recorded moving images. By compressing the video information to 1/120 and the audio information to  
1/6, recording of up to 74 min is possible on discs with the same 12 cm diameter as general audio CDs.  
Two types of discs are being marketed (without PBC) for simple playback and (with PBC) with menus and special play-  
back (playback control). This unit can be used for playback of VIDEO CDs of both types.

Playback of MP3 file  
35  
This unit can play MP3 file.  
Please refer to the "Important notes on the MP3 file" below before playback of MP3 file.  
What is MP3?  
MP3 is the abbreviation of "MPEG1 Audio Layer 3". MPEG Audio is a compression specification that compresses the  
audio portion only. This audio compression method is used in DVD or Video CD, etc. The audio data has been com-  
pressed into about 1/10.  
Important notes on the MP3 file  
Acceptable medium  
÷CD-RW is not acceptable. Also for CD-R disc, it may not be played according to the type of the disc.  
÷The medium formats acceptable to this unit are ISO 9660. (The maximum total number of directories which can be  
recognized by this unit is 512 and the total number of files is 1957.)  
÷When entering file and folder names, use alphanumeric characters only.  
÷This unit recognized and plays only MP3 file which have the MP3 filename extension (.MP3).  
Settings for your MP3 encoder and CD writer  
÷When you use your MP3 encoder to compress audio data to an MP3 file, set the transfer bit rate of the encoder to  
fixed 128 kbps (Constant Bit Rate).  
÷Sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz.  
÷When you use your CD writer to record MP3 file, check Disc at Once.  
Sequence of playing MP3 files  
MP3 files will be played in the sequence that the writing software had recorded. Therefore, it may be different between  
the sequence that you want to record and the sequence of playing. For some writing software, input "01" ~ "99", for  
example, before the file names in the sequence of playing and then record into a CD-R, etc, sometimes you may setup  
the sequence of playing.  
Applicationsection  
Writing files onto a medium  
When a medium containing MP3 data is loaded, the unit checks all the files on the medium. If the medium contains a lot  
of folders or non-MP3 file, therefore, it takes a long time until the unit starts playing MP3 file. In addition, it may take  
time for the unit to move to the next MP3 file or a file search or folder search may not be performed smoothly. You  
should not write non-MP3 file or unneeded folders along with MP3 file on the medium.  
Kenwood is not responsible for playability of MP3 in any case due to recording condition such as  
PC performance, writing software, media ability or etc.
