Additional Information  
CD-R/CD-RW discs  
Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.  
When CD-R/CD-RW discs are used, playback is possi-  
ble only for discs which have been finalized.  
Playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs recorded on a music  
CD recorder or a personal computer may not be pos-  
sible due to disc characteristics, scratches or dirt on  
the disc, or dirt, condensation, etc., on the lens of this  
unit.  
Read the precautions for discs before using them.  
Certain functions may not be available for some DVD  
video discs.  
It may not be possible to play back some DVD video  
discs.  
Depending on the application settings and the envir-  
onment, playback of discs recorded on a personal  
computer may not be possible. (For details, contact  
the manufacturer of the application.)  
Playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs may become impossi-  
ble in case of direct exposure to sunlight, high tem-  
peratures, or the storage conditions in the vehicle.  
Titles and other text information recorded on a CD-R/  
CD-RW disc may not be displayed by this unit (in the  
case of audio data (CD-DA)).  
It is not possible to play back DVD-ROM/DVD-RAM  
discs.  
DVD-R/-RW discs which have been recorded with the  
Video Recording format (VR mode) can be played  
back. However, unfinalized disc may not be played  
back. Unplayable disc should be finalized. In addition,  
finalized DVD-R DL (Dual Layer) disc cannot be re-  
corded/edited.  
DVD-R DL (Dual Layer) discs which have been re-  
corded with the Video Recording format (VR mode)  
can be played back. However, this unit is not compati-  
ble with Layer Jump recording mode.  
DualDiscs  
DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a recordable  
CD for audio on one side and a recordable DVD for  
video on the other.  
For more information about recording mode, please  
contact manufacture of DVD recorder or application.  
Playback of the DVD side is possible with this unit.  
However, since the CD side of DualDiscs is not physi-  
cally compatible with the general CD standard, it may  
not be possible to play the CD side with this unit.  
Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may re-  
sult in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches can  
lead to playback problems on this unit. In some  
cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the disc load-  
ing slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we recom-  
mend you refrain from using DualDisc with this unit.  
Please refer to the information from the disc manu-  
facturer for more detailed information about Dual-  
Discs.  
The following logo indicates that this unit is compati-  
ble with DVD-RW discs which have been recorded  
with the Video Recording format (VR mode).  
This unit is not compatible with discs recorded in  
AVCHD (Advanced Video Codec High Definition) for-  
mat. Do not insert AVCHD discs as you may not be  
able to eject the disc.

specify the playback sequence (e.g., 001xxx.  
mp3 and 009yyy.mp3).  
USB storage device  
Playable folder hierarchy: up to eight tiers (A practical  
hierarchy is less than two tiers.)
