Before using the deck
About discs
Water droplets (condensation) can form on the inside of the unit during cold or
rainy weather in the same way car windows can fog up. When this happens, the
audio can jump and playback can stop, so ventilate or dehumidify the vehicle for
a short time before operating the equipment.
To safeguard the components of the player, the unit will automatically stop when
a malfunction occurs. If the player will not operate even when the messages
displayed on the screen are followed, it is possible that the unit has been
damaged. Contact the store of purchase.
It is possible that the sound will skip if the vehicle experiences violent motion on
rough roads.
An audio or DVD video disc bearing one of the marks shown below can be
played.
Depending on the type of disc used, playback may not be possible.
Supports Dolby Digital. Discs bearing the following mark can be used.
Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories, Inc. Dolby and the double-D symbol are
registered trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
Supports DTS 2.0 + Digital Out. Discs bearing the following mark can be used.
“DTS” and “DTS 2.0 + Digital Out” are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, inc
It is possible that a CD-R (CD-Recordable) or CD-RW (CD-ReWritable) disc will
not play on the unit due to special disc characteristics, scratches, dirt or
deterioration caused by long storage in the vehicle. In addition, an unfinalized
CD-R or CD-RW disc written in CD-R, CD-RW or UDF format will not play on the
unit.
It is possible that a DVD-R/RW (DVD-Recordable/ReWritable) or DVD+R/RW
(DVD+Recordable/ReWritable) disc will not play on the unit due to special disc
characteristics, scratches, or dirt or deterioration caused by long storage in the
vehicle. In addition, an unfinalized DVD-R or DVD-RW disc will not play on the
unit. It is possible that discs recorded using a computer may not play on the unit
depending on the environment and/or settings of applications used to record
them.
The CD-TEXT function requires commercially available CDs which support
CD-TEXT. It is possible that characters in CD-R and CD-RW data may not be
displayed correctly.
About supported disc types
19
Introduction
Super Audio CDs can only be played in the hybrid disc layer.
CCCDs (Copy Control CD) do not conform to official CD
standards and so are not supported.
CD-EXTRA discs can be played as audio CDs.
Voice tracks on Mixed Mode CDs cannot be played. Only
music tracks will be played.
Video-CDs cannot be played.
Be sure to store discs in their cases and keep them out of
direct sunlight. Discs can warp and become unusable.
Do not apply paper-based tape to either the recording
side or label side of a disc. Otherwise damage may occur.
Do not use discs that are warped or cracked. Otherwise
damage may occur.
Do not touch the recorded side of a disc (iridescent side of
the CD) when handling it. The disc may become dirty,
causing jumping to occur.
Using a disc that is dirty can scratch the disc and result in
sound jumping. Use a commercially available compact
disc cleaner to clean the CD, wiping lightly from the center
to the edge.
About handling discs
20
Introduction
Before using the deck
You may notice that some brand new discs are rough
around the center hole or outside edge. Remove the
rough edges with the side of a ballpoint pen, etc. before
using. Rough edges may prevent proper loading in the
unit. Flakes from the rough edges may also stick to the
recorded surface and interfere with playback.
Do not use CD discs with attached cellophane tape, rental
CD discs with glue protruding from labels or discs with the
residue of peeled adhesives. These discs can prevent the
player from properly opening and closing as well as cause
other damage.
Specially-shaped CDs cannot be played. Do not attempt
to play them, even with an adapter, since they may
damage the player.
Do not use commercially available lens cleaners, as they
may cause damage to the pickup of the player.
Do not use accessories such as stabilizers, protective
seals, or laser lens cleaners sold for "improving sound
performance" or "protecting CDs." Changes in CD
thickness or outside dimensions made by these
accessories may cause problems in the player.
Do not attach any ring-shape protector (or other
accessory) to your discs. These protectors are
commercially available and said to protect discs and to
improve sound quality (and add an anti-vibration effect),
but they can do more harm than good during regular use.
The most common problems are insert/eject related
problems and "No playback" problems due to the
protector ring coming off in the disc mechanism.

About MP3/WMA files
MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer III) is a standard format for audio compression technology. By
using the MP3 format, a file can be compressed to one-tenth its original size.
WMA (Windows Media
TM
Audio) is the audio compression format by Microsoft. This can

How to operate the MP3/WMA player
How to use the MP3/WMA player
MP3 and WMA files have an "ID3 tag/WMA tag" that allows input of text information so that
data such as track titles and artists can be saved.
ID3 tag/WMA tag
Media capable of playing MP3/WMA files include CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Compared to CD-ROM media commonly used for music discs, CD-R discs are fragile in high
temperature/high humidity environments and sections of the CD-R may become incapable of
playback. Fingerprints or scratches on the disc may prevent playback or cause skipping.
Sections of a CD-R may deteriorate if left inside a vehicle for long periods of time.
It is also recommended that CD-R discs be kept in a light-blocking case because the discs are
vulnerable to ultra-violet light.

How to operate the MP3/WMA player
How to use the MP3/WMA player
Only files with the MP3/WMA file extension ".MP3/.WMA" will be recognized as MP3/WMA
and played in the unit. Be sure to save MP3/WMA files with an ".MP3/.WMA" file extension.
Use capital letters when attaching file extensions.
Multi sessions are supported and CD-R/RW discs with recorded MP3/WMA files can be played.
When recording using "Track at once", however, finalize the disc with session close or write protect.
When a disc containing an MP3/WMA file is inserted, all files on the disc will be checked
before playback can begin. The check will be completed within approximately 10 seconds of
the disc being inserted, and the first MP3/WMA file will begin playing. If the check is not
completed within this period, the music or audio previously being played will resume. MP3/
WMA playback can be started by touching .
Sound is not emitted from the system while it is checking the files on the disc.
In order to speed up completion of the file check, it is recommended that you avoid recording
files that are not MP3/WMA files and avoid creating unnecessary folders.
In addition, it is recommended that you record all data in a single session because it takes
more time to acquire CD control information from a multi session disc.
It is possible that playing time will not be correct, depending on the writing condition of the
MP3/WMA file.
* It is possible that playing time will not be correct when VBR Fast Up/Down is operated.
Names of MP3/WMA folders and files within the same level are displayed in the following order.
1. MP3/WMA files displayed first, in ascending order of numbers, then letters.
2. Folders are displayed next, in ascending order of numbers, then letters.
While an MP3/WMA is being played, navigation operation will become slower. This is not a
malfunction of the system.

If the".MP3/.WMA" file extension is attached to a file other than an MP3/WMA file,
that file will be mistakenly recognized by the unit as an MP3/WMA file and played,
resulting in noise and static that can damage the speakers. Do not attach the
".MP3/.WMA" extension to any non-MP3/WMA files.

Making and playing MP3/WMA files
MP3/WMA files created by recording broadcasts, records, audio recordings, video recordings
or live performances cannot be used for purposes other than personal entertainment without
permission of the copyright holder as set forth in copyright law.
There are many kinds of sites that distribute MP3/WMA files on the Internet, such as "pay per
download" online shopping sites, "try before you buy" listening sites and free download sites.
Follow the rules for each site (such as paying fees) and download according to site
instructions.
Prepare a computer with commercially available MP3/WMA encoding software (conversion
software). (Some encoding programs available on the Internet do not require payment.) Music
data files in MP3/WMA format can be made by inserting the music CD into the CD-ROM drive
of the computer and following the procedures of the MP3/WMA encoding software to
compress the songs of the music CD. A 12cm music CD (having a maximum of 74 minutes of
recording/650MB of data) can be compressed to 65MB (about 1/10 of the original size).
MP3/WMA files can be recorded on a CD-R/RW by using a CD-R/RW drive connected to a
computer. Record by setting the recording format of the recording software to ISO9660 level 1
or level 2 (not including extension format).
Select CD-ROM (mode 1) or CD-ROM XA (mode2) for the disc format.
Insert a CD-R/RW disc containing recorded MP3/WMA files. The system will automatically
determine whether the disc is a music CD or a CD-R/RW with MP3/WMA files and begin
playing the disc. A music CD recorded onto a CD-R/RW can also be played. However,
depending on the type of disc being used, playback may not be possible.
Downloading from Internet MP3/WMA music sites
Converting CD music to MP3/WMA files
Writing to CD-R/RW discs
Playing back CD-R/RW discs
A fixed bit rate of 128kbps and sampling frequency of 44.1kHz is recommended
for obtaining stable audio quality at playback.
Depending on the characteristics of a disc, the system may not be able to read
CD-R and CD-RW discs.
Because there are many types of MP3/WMA encoding software available,
including commercial and freeware programs, audio quality may deteriorate,
noise may be generated when playing starts and some recordings may not play,
depending on the condition of the encoder and the file format.
When files other than MP3/WMA files are recorded on a disc, the system may
take some time to recognize the disc or it may not play.

How to operate the unit when an optional 5.1 ch decoder/AV matrix unit connected
A variety of materials are used inside a vehicle to manufacture the seats and windows, and
these materials absorb and reflect sound in different ways. The parametric equalizer lets you
adjust the peaks and dips of the frequency characteristics inside the vehicle to compensate for
these differences.
An “equalizer” is a function that corrects these peaks and dips in order to flatten frequency
characteristics. However, with a normal graphic equalizer, the median frequency and the Q
(sharpness and band width) are fixed, so that when neighboring bands are corrected, there is
a limit to the amount of distortion in the peak and dip characteristics that can be corrected. A
“parametric equalizer” lets you adjust the median frequency, Q (sharpness and band width)
and gain to variable levels, so that you can make fine adjustments to spot areas of the
frequency band.
Harmonizer
When original sounds are converted to MP3/WMA format,
frequency ranges that are not normally audible to the
human ear are compressed. The harmonizer can be used
to play back these compressed sounds at as close to their
original form as possible so that clear and powerful sound
can be enjoyed.
134
Loudness
The loudness control may be turned on the emphasize low
and high frequencies at low volume levels. Loudness
compensates for the apparent weakness of low and high
frequencies at low volume by boosting the bass and treble
levels.

How to operate the unit when an optional 5.1 ch decoder/AV matrix unit connected
With vehicle audio systems, the installation position of the speakers and the position of the
listener mean that the distances from the listener to the left and right speakers are almost
always different. These differences in the distance from the listener to each speaker in turn
means that the time taken for the sound to reach the listener is different for each speaker. The
result of this is that the phases of each speaker (biases) become mismatched and the sound
becomes unnatural, as though the sound stage were not wide enough. The “time alignment”
function corrects the time taken for the sound waves to reach the listener in order to set the
optimum phase for the listening position. This makes the sound more expansive as though it
were being listened to on a sound stage.
The basic adjustment method involves measuring the actual distances to each speaker and
calculating the differences in distance relative to the most distant speaker in order to derive
the delay time for the sound from each speaker.

Glossary
For reference
Track
The single division for a song on a music CD is
called a track.
SCMS
(Serial Copy
Management System)
With digital recording, the deterioration of audio
quality is very low. Therefore digital recording
equipment regulates, for the sake of copyright
protection, the using of a sound source copied
using a digital signal to be used to make further
copies of the same data. This is what the SCMS
(Serial Copy Management System) does.
Viewing Restriction
This is a DVD video function that “Restricts
playing of discs that support viewing restrictions,
in accordance with the regulated levels of each
country.” Restrictions differ by DVD video and
may completely prevent playing of the video or
may skip or insert alternate scenes for extreme
scenes.
Title
This is the largest unit for divisions of video or
songs recorded on a DVD video. Usually a single
movie is treated as a title by video software and a
single album (or song) is treated as a single title
by music software. The consecutive numbers
attached to titles are called title numbers.
Chapter
This is a unit for divisions of video or songs
recorded on a DVD video, but it is a smaller unit
than a title. A single title is made up of several
chapters, and the consecutive numbers attached
to chapters are called chapter numbers.
Multi-Angle
This is one feature of DVD video, where
viewpoints of the same scene are changed by
recording from several different angles (camera
positions), allowing the viewer to select the
preferred angle.
Multi-Language
This is one feature of DVD video, where the same
scene is recorded with several different
languages and subtitles, allowing the viewer to
select the preferred language.
Region code
DVD players and DVD discs have a region code
that enables playing by geographic marketing
regions, and a disc cannot be played if the
number recorded on the disc is not included in the
region codes of the player. See page xx for details
on region codes.
