Active mobile phones in the vicinity of this unit may cause malfunctions.

Avoid dropping the unit as this may cause damage.

Clean the unit with a soft, slightly dampened, lint-free cloth. Do not use

disposal of packing materials, dead batteries and old equipment.

General information

English

MP3 and AAC music ﬁles

The music compression technologies MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and AAC

(Advanced Audio Coding) reduce the digital data of an audio CD signiﬁcantly

while maintaining CD-like sound quality.With MP3, for example, you can

record up to 10 hours of CD-like music on a single CD-ROM.This unit plays

MP3 and AAC music ﬁles.

How to get music ﬁles

Either download legal music ﬁles from the internet to your computer

harddisc or create them from your own audio CDs. For this, insert an audio

CD into your computer´s CD-ROM drive and convert the music using an

appropriate encoder software.To achieve a good sound quality, a bit rate of

128 kbps or higher is recommended for MP3 music ﬁles.

Some encoder software offers an option to protect music ﬁles, i. e. the ﬁles

can only be played on the computer which created them. If you burn such

ﬁles on a CD-ROM, you cannot play them on this unit. Make sure to

deactivate the protection option in the encoder software before creating

the music ﬁles. In this case you are responsible for adherence to all local or

international copyrights.

How to organize music ﬁles

In order to easily handle the large number of music ﬁles on a CD-ROM,

you can organize them in folders (“albums”).

The tracks of an album will be played in alphabetical order. If you want to

arrange them in a certain order, let the ﬁle names start with numbers.

For example:

001-ONEWORLD.MP3

002-FIRESTARTER.MP3

003-DEEP.MP3
