PLAYING COMPACT DISCS
Notes on compact discs
This unit has been designed only to play back the
following CDs.
• Digital audio CD
• Recordable digital audio CD (CD-R)
• Rewritable digital audio CD (CD-RW)
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
You can play back finalized CD-R or CD-RW recorded
in music CD format. (If a CD-RW has been recorded in
a different format, erase all the data on the CD-RW
completely before recording on it.)
• You can play back CD-R or CD-RW like an audio CD.
• Some CD-R or CD-RW may not be played back on
this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage
or stain on them, or if the player lens is dirty.
• The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that of
other CDs, possibly causing CD-RW to take longer
time to read.
• CD-R and CD-RW of MP3 format cannot be played
back.

unit, care should be taken of the following:
• Do not touch the reflective recorded surface.
