Instructions for operating the  
audio system  
Use only high quality cartridges.  
NOTICE  
Low-quality cassette tapes can cause many problems,  
such as poor sound, uneven advance speeds, and  
auto-reverse problems. They can also become  
stuck or entangled in the player mechanism.  
To ensure proper audio system function:  
u Be careful not to spill a drink on the audio  
system.  
u Do not insert any objects other than cassettes  
or CDs into the cassette or CD slot.  
Do not use cartridges that have been damaged or  
crumpled, or if their label is peeled off.  
u Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may  
Do not leave cassettes in the player when they  
cause noise from the speakers of the audio  
system you are listening to. However, this  
phenomenon does not signal a malfunction.  
are not being played, especially when it is hot.  
Keep the cassettes in their packaging out of the way  
direct sunlight.  
Avoid using cassettes with a total playing time of over  
100 minutes (50 minutes per side). The tape in these  
cassettes is usually thin and can tear or crumple in  
the player.  
RADIO BROADCAST RECEPTION  
FM broadcasting has a range of about 40 km. When  
driving away from the transmitter, you may need to fine-  
tune the radio and increase the volume if the signal  
weakens.  
Because FM uses a straight-line signal, tall buildings or  
hills can sometimes interfere with reception. These are  
normal characteristics of FM reception and do not signal  
a problem in the operation of the receiver itself.  
CARE OF YOUR CASSETTE AND CARD PLAYER  
ZETY  
For the best performance from your cassette and tape  
player:  
Clean the player head and other parts regularly.  
A dirty tape head or path can reduce sound quality  
and wrinkle the tape.  
The easiest way to clean is with a cleaning cartridge.  
(We recommend the wet type.)

CARE OF YOUR COMPACT PLAYER  
OF DISCS AND DISCS  
Your compact disc player is only designed to  
use 12 cm diameter discs.  
Extremely high temperatures may prevent  
the CD player from functioning.  
Therefore, in warm weather, turn on the air  
conditioning before listening to the disc to cool down  
the interior of the vehicle.  
Driving on rough roads or other shocks may  
cause CDs to skip.  
Use only compact discs marked according  
to the image above. The following discs  
may not be playable in this player.  
If moisture gets inside your compact disc  
player, you may not hear any sound even  
though your player is otherwise showing no  
signs of malfunction.  
Remove the cartridge from the player  
and wait until the player is dry.

WARNING  
The compact disc uses invisible laser  
beams that could cause hazardous  
radiation if they were to get outside the  
device. Use the player properly.

Transparent/translucent discs  
Bad quality discs  
Discs with sticker  
NOTICE  
Do not use specially shaped, transparent/

To clean a compact disc: Wipe the disc with a soft, lint-  
free cloth moistened with water. Wipe the disc from the  
center to the edges in straight strokes (not in circular  
motions). Do not use common board cleaners or  
antistatic agents.  
Handle compact discs with care, especially  
when loading them into the tray.  
Hold them by the edges and do not bend them.  
Avoid fingerprints, especially on the shiny side.  
Dirt, scratches, warping, small holes or  
other damage to the discs may cause the  
player to skip or repeat part of the song.  
(You can see the holes in the disc by  
looking against the light.)  
If you are not listening to the discs, remove  
them from the player. Store them in plastic  
bags away from moisture, heat and direct  
sunlight.

MP3/WMA FILES  
The sound quality of MP3/WMA files is generally better  
at higher bit rates. In order to achieve an acceptable  
level of sound quality, it is recommended to use  
discs recorded at a bit rate of at least 128 kbps.  
MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA (Windows  
Media Audio) are audio compression standards.  
The MP3/WMA player enables playback of MP3 and  
WMA files on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs.  
Playable bit rates  
MP3 files:  
MPEG1 LAYER3 - 64 to 320 kbps  
MPEG2 LSF LAYER3 - 64 to 160 kbps  
WMA files:  
The drive can play disc recordings compatible with  
ISO 9660 levels 1 and 2 and the Romeo and Joliet  
file systems.  
Ver7, 8 CBR - 48 to 192 kbps  
Ver9 CBR - 48 to 320 kbps  
When naming an MP3 or WMA file, specify the  
appropriate file name extension (.mp3 or .wma).  
The MP3/WMA player does not play MP3/WMA files  
from discs recorded using packet data transfer  
recording (UDF format).  
The MP3/WMA player plays files with a .mp3 or .wma  
file name extension as MP3 or WMA files.  
Discs should be recorded using "pre-  
mastering" software rather than packet  
burning software.  
To avoid noise and malfunctions, use the  
appropriate terminal.  
M3u playlists are not compatible with this audio player.  
It is also possible to play multi-session compatible  
discs.  
MP3i (MP3 interactive) or MP3PRO formats are not  
MP3 files are compatible with ID3 Tags format Ver.  
1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2 and Ver.  
compatible with this audio player.  
2.3. In other formats, the unit cannot  
display disc name, track name and artist  
name.  
The MP3 player is compatible with VBR (Va-riable Bit  
Rate).  
WMA files can contain WMA tags, which are used in  
the same way as ID3 tags. WMA tags contain  
information such as track title, artist name.  
When playing files recorded as VBR (Variable Bit Rate)  
files, the playback time will not be displayed correctly  
if you use the fast forward or fast reverse operation.  
The highlight function is effective only when MP3/WMA  
files sampled at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz are played. (The  
system can play MP3 files with sampling rates of 16,  
22.05 and 24 kHz. However, the highlight function is  
not available for files recorded at these frequencies.)  
Folders that do not contain MP3/WMA files cannot be  
checked.  
MP3/WMA files up to 8 folder levels can be played.  
However, discs with more folder levels will  
experience a delay in starting playback. For this  
reason, we recommend creating discs that have no  
more than 2 levels of folders.  
Up to 192 folders or 255 files can be played on one  
disc.

be played by a conventional CD player) cannot be  
played.

It may not be possible to play CD–R/CD–RW discs  
recorded on a music CD recorder or personal  
computer due to disc characteristics, scratches or  
dirt on the disc, or dirt, condensation, etc. on the  
lenses of this unit.

Playback of discs recorded on a personal computer  
may not be possible depending on the application  
settings and environment. Record in the correct  
format. (Contact the app manufacturer for details.)  
The playback order of a compact disc that has the  
structure shown in the figure is as follows:  
CD–R/CD–RW discs can be damaged by direct  
sunlight, high temperature or other storage  
conditions. The unit may not be able to play some  
damaged discs.  
Order varies depending on PC and MP3/  
WMA encoding software you are using.  
Titles and other text information recorded on CD–R/  
CD–RW discs may not be displayed on the MP3/  
WMA player (in case of audio data [CD-DA]).  
The MP3/WMA player supports the track skipping  
function of CD–R/CD–RW discs.  
If you insert a CD-RW disc into an MP3/WMA player,  
the loading time before playback will be longer than  
that of a normal CD or CD-R disc.  
Before use, read the instructions included with the CD–  
R/CD–RW discs.  
CD–R/CD–RW recordings cannot be played back with  
DDCD (Double Density CD).

are rules for the following two levels.  
Level 1:  
Bit rate –  
The file name is in 8.3 format (The name contains a  
maximum of 8 characters, ending with 3 characters.  
File names must consist of single-byte capital letters  
and numbers.  
This expresses the volume of data per second or units  
of bps (bits per second). The higher the speed, the  
more information is available to reproduce the sound.  
The higher the speed, the better the sound.

Level 2:

data to approximately 1/10 the level of conventional  
discs.
