CR2025)
Remote sensor
(back side)
Preparing the remote controller
Before using the remote controller:
• Aim the remote controller directly at the remote
sensor on the main unit. Make sure there is no
obstacle in between.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to strong
light (direct sunlight or artificial lighting).
Installing the battery
When the controllable range or effectiveness of the
remote controller decreases, replace the battery.
1. Remove the battery holder.
1) Push out the battery holder in the direction
indicated by the arrow using a ball-point
pen or a similar tool.
2) Remove the battery holder.
2. Place the battery.
Slide the battery into the holder with the + side
facing upwards so that the battery is fixed in
the holder.
3. Return the battery holder.
Insert again the battery holder pushing it until
you hear a clicking sound.
CAUTION:
DO NOT leave the remote controller in a place (such
as dashboards) exposed to direct sunlight for a long
time. Otherwise it may be damaged.
WARNING:
• Store the battery in a place where children cannot
reach.
If a child accidentally swallows the battery,
consult a doctor immediately.
• Do not recharge, short, disassemble or heat the
battery or dispose it in a fire.
Doing any of these things may cause the battery to
give off heat, crack or start a fire.
• Do not leave the battery with other metallic
materials.
Doing this may cause the battery to give off heat,
crack or start a fire.
• When throwing away or saving the battery, wrap it
in tape and insulate; otherwise, the battery may
start to give off heat, crack or start a fire.
• Do not poke the battery with tweezers or similar
tools.
Doing this may cause the battery to give off heat,
crack or start a fire.

Adjust the sound as you want.
(See pages 21 – 23.)
To drop the volume in a moment
Press briefly while listening to any
source. “ATT” starts flashing on the display, and
the volume level will drop in a moment.
To resume the previous volume level, press the
button briefly again.

To turn off the power
Press and hold for more than one second.
Note:
When you use this unit for the first time, set the built-in
clock correctly, see page 24.
CAUTION on Volume Setting:
Discs produce very little noise compared with
other sources. If the volume level is adjusted for
the tuner, for example, the speakers may be
damaged by the sudden increase in the output
level. Therefore, lower the volume before playing a
disc and adjust it as required during playback.

MP3 INTRODUCTION
How are MP3 files recorded
and played back?
MP3 “files (tracks)” can be recorded in
“directories (folders)”—in PC terminology.
During recording, the files and directories can be
arranged in a way similar to arranging files and
directories/folders of computer data.
“Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every file
and directory can be linked to and be accessed
from the root.
Playback order, file search order, and directory
search order of the MP3 files 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 directories and the files.
The illustration on the next page shows an
example of how MP3 files are recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back, and
how they are searched on this unit.
Notes:
• The unit can read a CD-ROM containing MP3
files. However, 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.
• The unit cannot read or play an MP3 file without
the extension code—mp3.
• The unit is not compatible with Playlist*.
*
A playlist is a simple text file, used on a PC, which enables
users to make their own playback order without physically
rearranging the files.
What is MP3?
MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts
Group (or MPEG) Audio Layer 3*. MP3 is simply a
file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10
(128 Kbps**). That means, by using MP3 format,
one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as
much data volume as a regular CD can.
*
This player is not compatible with the data encoded with
Layer 1 and 2 formats.
** Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of
audio data will consume. The unit used is Kbps (1024
bits/second). To get a better audio quality, choose a higher
bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding is 128
Kbps.
This unit is incorporated with an MP3 decoder.
You can play back MP3 files (tracks) recorded on
CD-Rs, CD-RWs, and CD-ROMs.
Compatible with ID3v1
Extra information data such as album title, performer
name, song title, recording year, music genre and a
brief comment can be stored within an MP3 file.
This unit can show ID3v1 tags (album name,
performer name and song title) on the display.
• Some characters cannot be shown correctly.
• This unit is not compatible with ID3v2.
Other Main Features in this unit:
• Maximum number of directories/files: 289
(Total)
• Available characters: A–Z, 0–9, _ (underscore)
• Maximum number of characters for file name
(ISO 9660 Level 1): 12 (inclusive of
separation mark—“.” and
extension code—“mp3”)
(ISO 9660 Level 2): 31 (inclusive of
separation mark—“.” and
extension code—“mp3”)
(Joliet): 64 (inclusive of
separation mark—“.” and
extension code—“mp3”)
• Maximum number of characters for directory
name: 64
Precautions when recording MP3 files
on a CD-R or CD-RW
This unit can only read MP3 files that are recorded
in the format that is compliant with ISO 9660 Level
1, Level 2 or Joliet.

There is no limit on the number of the hierarchy levels (nested

MP3 playback/search order (page 18)
• The numbers in circles below the MP3 files ( ) indicate the playback order and search order of the
MP3 files. Normally this unit plays back MP3 files in the recorded order.
• The numbers inside the directories indicate the playback order and search order of the directories
on an MP3 disc. Normally this unit plays back MP3 files in the directories in the recorded order.

MP3 OPERATIONS
Refer also to “CD OPERATIONS” on pages 12 to 14.
Playing an MP3 disc
1
Insert an MP3 disc into the loading slot.
The unit turns on,
draws the MP3 disc
and starts playback
automatically.
Note on One-Touch Operation:
When a CD is already in the loading slot,
pressing the CD TUNER button turns on the unit
and starts playback automatically.
The CD–in indicator lights up.
Playback starts automatically from the first file of
the first directory once disc check is completed.
Notes:
• All the files on the disc will be played repeatedly
until you stop playback—All File Repeat Play.
• MP3 discs require a longer readout time.
(It differs due to the complexity of the directory/file
configuration.)

While playing back an MP3 file, you
can change the file information
shown on the display.
Each time you press DISP (display),
the display changes to show the
following:

To go to a particular directory directly
IMPORTANT:
To directly select the directories using the
number button(s), it is required that directories
are assigned 2 digit numbers at the beginning of
their directory names. (This can only be done
during the recording of CD-Rs or CD-RWs.)
Ex.: If directory name is “01 ABC”
= press 1 to go to directory 01 ABC
If directory name is “1 ABC,”
pressing 1 does not work
If directory name is “12 ABC”
= press and hold 6 (12) to go to
directory 12 ABC
Press the number button corresponding to the
directory number to start playing the first file in
the selected directory.
• To select a directory number from 01 – 06:
Press 1 (7) – 6 (12) briefly.
• To select a directory number from 07 – 12:
Press and hold 1 (7) – 6 (12) for more than 1
second.
Notes:
• If CD source indicator flashes on the display after
you have selected a directory, it means that the
directory does not contain any MP3 files.
• You cannot directly select a directory with a number
greater than 12.
To select a particular file in a directory, press
¢
or 4 after selecting the directory.
