Notes on CD-Rs/RWs

¡You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded on 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.

¡The unit may not successfully play back a CD-R/RW that was made by the combination of writing software, a CD

recorder (CD-R/RW drive) and a disc if they are incompatible with one another.

¡This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed.

¡This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA data (MP3/WMA, Video CD, etc.).

¡Be sure to observe the handling instructions of CD-R/RW discs.

<Wrong>

If you use commercial CDs, they must have either of these

labels shown at right.

It is prohibited by copyright laws to copy, distribute and deliver copyrighted materials such as music without the approval

of copyright holder except for personal use.

Note : To maintain in your cassette player in top condition, avoid using tapes that are longer than 90 minutes (C-90).
