Playing Back CDs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)
This unit has been designed to playback the following CDs:
• CD
• CD-R
• CD-RW
Continued use of irregular shape CDs
(heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.
General Notes
In general, you will have the best performance by keeping
your CDs and the mechanism clean.
• Store CDs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on
shelves.
• Keep the unit's disc tray closed when not in use.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs
(CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already
"finalized."
• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded in music CD format. However, they may not be
played back depending on their characteristics or recording
conditions.
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their
instructions or cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this
unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain
on them, or if the player's lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused
by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for
regular CDs.
