AC voltage selection
This unit operates on 110-120 or 220-240 AC voltage. The AC voltage selector switch on the
AC adapter is set to the voltage that prevails in the area to which the unit is shipped. Before
connecting the power cord to your AC outlet, make sure that the setting position of this switch
matches your line voltage. If not, it must be set to your voltage in accordance to the following
direction.
Note:
Our warranty does not cover damage caused by excessive line voltage due to improper setting
of the AC voltage selector switch.

Media that can be played back with this
equipment
Usable media apart from audio CDs (CD-DA)
Usable media
: CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW
Usable formats : ISO9660 level 1 and level 2 (excluding expanded formats)
Files that can be played back: MP3 and WMA files
Creating media for playing back on this
equipment
Compressing MP3 and WMA files
Please set up the transfer bit rate setting for the compression software when com-
pressing MP3 and WMA files as follows:
MP3 Files
: 128kbps recommended (32kbps-320kbps)
WMA Files
: 128kbps recommended (64kbps-160kbps)
¶ This unit is compatible with 32kHz, 44.1kHz (recommended) and 48kHz samplimg
frequencies.
Categorizing folders
As MP3 and WMA files are compressed into high-quality sound files at an extremely
high rate of compression, it is possible to record several times more tracks than audio
CDs onto a single medium. It is therefore convenient to split the tracks into different
folders by genre, artist or album for retrieval and repeat playback purposes.
¶ A maximum of 23 folders or a maximum of 200 files can be stored on a single media.
¶ There are cases where it is not possible to save folders in the desired sequence
depending on the software being used.
Naming files
Single-byte characters between A and Z, single-byte numerals between 0 and 9, and
the single-byte underscore (_) can be used when naming files. A maximum of twelve
characters can be displayed. Ensure that the ".MP3" (MP3 files) or ".WMA" (WMA files)
extension logs are attached to all file names.
¶ Never add the MP3 or WMA extension logs to any files other than MP3 and WMA
files. If the MP3 or WMA extension logs are added to any files other than MP3 and
WMA files, the equipment will assume that they can be played back, and this will
produce loud noises in the headphones, resulting in damage of adverse effects.
Hint for when naming folders and files
When media containing MP3 and WMA files are played back on this equipment, the
sequence in which each track is played back will be the same as the sequence in which
they were saved. It is possible to set up the playback sequence by adding numbers
from between 01 and 99 to the front of the folder and the file name when saving the file.
¶ There are cases where it is not possible to save files in the desired sequence de-
pending on the software being used.
Additional information
Depending on the MP3 and WMA compression software in use, it is possible to save
track titles, artist names and other information together with each sound file as addi-
tional information.
Although it is possible to display pre-recorded title and artist information with this infor-
mation, it is necessary to ensure that this information has been entered in single-byte
alphanumericals (Up to a maximum of 30 alphanumericals for each.).
¶ The method of entering title and artist information will differ in accordance with the
compression software. Refer to the compression software's instruction manual or
help file.
Confirming media and files
Check to ascertain that MP3 and WMA files can be played back correctly on the per-
sonal computer in use prior to saving them onto the media. Check to ensure that the
saved file can be played back normally.
¶ It is not possible to confirm that files can be played back correctly while they are
being saved onto the media.
When saving files onto media
Ensure that the session is closed or finalized when data has been written on media.
There are cases where media on which the session has not be closed or finalized will
not be played back correctly with this equipment.
¶ There are cases were the folder names and file names will not be displayed cor-
rectly depending on the software used to save them.
¶ Do not store files or folders other than MP3 and WMA on media to be played back
with this equipment.
¶ It is recommended that ten or less sessions are stored when recording MP3 and
WMA files onto a medium.
¶ There are cases where playback is not possible when MP3 and WMA files (CD-
ROM) and music CD information (CD-DA) are saved on the same media.

Caution of hearing (For U.S.A.)
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical
enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.
This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and
clear without annoying blaring or distortion -- and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So
what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
¶ Start your volume control at a low setting.
¶ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
¶ Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we
want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing
damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic
Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to
excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

Maintenance
Simple care
Care of lens
When the lens in the pick-up gets dirty, malfunctions including the
impossibility of playback may occur. The lens should be cleaned
using a commercially available camera lens blower, etc. Do not
touch the lens to prevent damaging the mechanism. Also do not
use a lens cleaner or disc cleaner product.
Care of main unit
When the unit gets dirty, clean with a soft, dry cloth. If the unit is stained seriously, a
moistened cloth can be used. Do not use benzine or thinner for these will damage the unit.
Cleaning the plug
Wipe the headphone plug with a soft cloth to keep it clean.
A dirty plug may cause noise or malfunction.
Caution on disc used
Usable discs
8 cm single CDs can be played as they are; do not use a commercially-available single
CD adapter.
Handling
Hold compact discs so that you do not touch the playing surface.
Do not attach paper or tape to either the playing side or the label side of compact discs.
Never play a cracked or warped disc.
During playback, the disc rotates at high speed in the player. Therefore, to avoid danger,
never use a cracked or deformed disc or a disc repaired with tape or adhesive agent.
Cleaning
If fingerprints or foreign matter become attached to the disc,
lightly wipe the disc with a soft cotton cloth (or similar) from
the center of the disc outwards in a radial manner.
Storage
When a disc is not to be played for a long period of time,
remove it from the CD player and store it in its case.

Precautions when using rechargeable batteries
(NB-150 Nickel-Metal Hydrogen rechargeable batteries)
¶ Do not use any rechargeable batteries other than the ones specially required by the
player. Failure to observe this may result in damage.
¶ Nickel-Metal Hydrogen rechargeable batteries are used with the player. Owing to
the characteristics of these batteries, it is necessary to recharge them at least once
every two months even when they have not been used.
¶ It is possible to recharge the batteries approximately 300 times.
¶ Replace the rechargeable batteries when the amount of time they can be used is
minimal even after recharging (use NB-130 batteries sold separately.)
¶ A small amount of current will be consumed even when the power to the player is
switched off. It is therefore recommended that the batteries are removed if the player
will not be used for a long period of time.
¶ Place the rechargeable batteries in the battery carrying case supplied when carrying
them around. There is a risk of the positive and negative poles being shorted if they
come into contact with key holders or other metallic objects when carried in a pocket.
The rechargeable batteries have a tendency to become warm when recharged and
during use. This is not a defect.
Ensure that the instruction manual supplied with rechargeable batteries is read thor-
oughly when purchased separately for models that do not include them.
