[

When a USB device is connected, the unit reads all the files on the
device. If there are many folders or files on the device, it may take a 
long time for the unit to finish reading them.

[

Do not connect a USB device to the unit through a USB hub.

[

In the case of some USB devices, when an operation is performed on
the USB device, there may be a delay before it is carried out on this unit.

[

This unit may not support all the functions provided on the
connected USB device.

[

Files recorded by this unit are played back in the order of folder
creation. Files recorded by a device other than this unit (such as a 
computer) may not play back in the order in which they were recorded.

[

The playback order on this unit may differ from the playback order
on the connected USB device.

[

Do not save non-MP3/WMA files or unnecessary folders to a USB
device that contains MP3/WMA files.

[

During playback, folders that contain no MP3/WMA files are
skipped.

[

This unit can play only MP3/WMA files that have the “.mp3” or
“.wma” file extension.

[

If there are files on the disc that have the “.mp3” or “.wma” file
extension, but are not MP3/WMA files, the unit may produce noise
or malfunction.

[

A maximum of 999 MP3/WMA files and 255 folders can be
contained on a single USB device.
The maximum number of MP3/WMA files and folders may vary,
depending on the file and folder structure.

[

Compatibility with all MP3/WMA encoding/writing software,
recording devices, and recording media cannot be guaranteed. If
you use an incompatible USB device, the sound skipping or noise
may be produced, or the device may not play at all.

By connecting a USB device (digital music player or USB
storage media) to the

  (USB) port X on the unit, you

can record music from a disc to the USB device.
This unit supports recording from CD-DA and MP3/
WMA discs only. Sound from this unit’s cassette player
or radio cannot be recorded to a USB device.
Audio files are recorded on this unit in the MP3 or
WMA format.
The approximate recording size is about 1 MB per
minute of recording time from a CD. The file size may be
larger for recordings made from an MP3/WMA disc.
See “Playable/Recordable USB devices” on the back page
for a list of the USB devices that can be connected to this
unit.

This function allows you to easily record an entire disc
onto a USB device.

Connect a USB device with recording capability to

When the disc is inserted, the unit reads all the files on that disc.
During this time, “READING” is displayed. If there are many folders
or non-MP3/WMA files on the disc, it may take a long time for play
to begin or for the next MP3/WMA file to start play.
We recommend that you do not save unnecessary folders or files
other than MP3/WMA ones in the disc to be used for MP3/WMA 
listening.

[

A folder that does not include an MP3/WMA file is skipped.

the file name.

[

If you put the extension “.mp3” or “.wma” to a file other than an
MP3/WMA file, the unit cannot recognize the file properly and will
generate random noise that could damage your speakers.
