General information
Some words about MP3
The revolutionary new music compression technology MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) enables to shrink down original digital audio sound data with a factor of up to 10 without losing significant sound quality.This allows you to record up to 10 hours of CD-like quality music on a single CD-ROM. Making your own MP3-CD Basically there are two sources for MP3 music on CD.You can either create ("rip") it from your own digital audio CDs or download legal MP3 music from the Internet. Record ("burn") the music from your hard disc on CD-ROM with your home PC (make sure filename ends with .mp3). Once finished, you can play your MP3-CD on this set and enjoy the music. Data rate The data rate is of great importance with MP3. It indicates how fast bits are transfered. Stereo music on a CD shows a data rate of about 1400 kilobits per second (kbps). To achieve a good MP3 quality a bit rate of 128 kbps is recommended. As the encoding rate is user-selectable, make sure to reach this data rate for MP3 as recordings less than 128 kbps will suffer from a degradation in sound quality. Recording Downloading MP3 files from the Internet or ripping songs from your own digital audio CDs is a delicate process, also influenced by the quality of the encoder program and speed of your PC.This may sometimes result in "drop-outs" which you may experience while listening to your MP3-CD. In any case make sure to use a recording speed not faster than indicated on the CD-ROM and avoid running other programs simultaneously on your PC during the recording process. It is not possible to "burn" an MP3-CD on this CD recorder. It is not possible to record from an MP3-CD. Supported formats Following formats are supported on this CDR Mini Hi-Fi system: ­ Disc format: ISO 9660, Joliet or UDF v1.5 ­ Filename: .mp3 (tracks), .m3u or .pls (playlists) ­ Bit rate: 32­320 kbps (128 kbps advised) or variable bit rate

Maintenance
Clean the set with a soft, slightly dampened lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents as they may have a corrosive effect.

Do not expose the set, batteries or CDs to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat (caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight).

The lenses may cloud over when the set is suddenly moved from cold to warm surroundings. Playing a CD(RW) is not possible then. Leave the set in a warm environment until the moisture evaporates.

Disc handling
For recording it is very important to use dust and scratch free discs. To take a CD(RW) out of its box easily, press the centre spindle while lifting the CD(RW). Always pick up a CD(RW) by the edge and put it back after use. Never write on a CD or attach a sticker to it.Write only on the printed side of a CDR or CDRW,and only with a soft felt-tipped pen.

For recording from a record player both recorder and record player should be connected to an amplifier/receiver 6 ANALOG OUT connects to the line (analog) input of an amplifier/receiver or analog recording device, so you can listen to playback of this set

Setup recommendations
­ Place the set on a solid, vibration free surface. ­ Make sure there is sufficient space around the set to prevent overheating. ­ Do not place the set near a source of heat or in direct sunlight. ­ Do not use the set under extremely damp conditions. ­ If the set is placed in a cabinet, make sure that a 2.5 cm space remains free on all sides of the CD recorder for proper ventilation. ­ Active mobile phones near to the set may cause malfunctions. ­ Place the set below your receiver.

Connections general
NEVER MAKE OR CHANGE CONNECTIONS WITH THE POWER SWITCHED ON For playback on both recorder deck and changer deck the set should be connected to your amplifier/receiver. For this the following outputs are present: ­ Digital coaxial output (DIGITAL OUT); ­ Analog output (ANALOG OUT). For external recording the following inputs are present: ­ Digital optical input (OPTICAL IN); ­ Digital coaxial input (DIGITAL IN); ­ Analog input (ANALOG IN). These inputs can be connected to the corresponding output(s) of your amplifier/receiver or directly to the corresponding output(s) of the external source. Record players cannot be connected directly to the set. The connections you make will depend upon the possibilities your audio equipment offers and how you are going to use the set. Please refer to the user manuals for your other audio equipment first. Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best performance in audio and usability. If possible, always make both digital and analog connections. In this way you can always make analog recordings when digital recording is not possible. 11

Auto Level Control ensures that the tracks on the recorded disc have a similar volume level. Always the already recorded tracks of the CDR(W) disc will be taken as reference for the volume level of the following recordings. Auto level control becomes automatically active, when: ­ COMPILE CD is being used, ­ a disc, a track or a track edit is being high speed recorded and the CDR(W) has recordings on it, or ­ a program (consisting from more than one disc) from the CD changer is being high speed recorded. Auto level control will not become active, when: ­ using COPY CD, ­ making recordings from an external source, or ­ making normal recordings in listen mode. Switching ALC permanently off 1 2 3

The recording procedure is the same for CDR and CDRW discs. Make sure that the CDR(W) is absolutely free of scratches and dust particles. It is advisable to use a CDRW disc for your first try. For recordings, the minimum track length is 4 seconds.You can record up to a maximum of 99 tracks on a disc.The minimum of recording time left on the disc is 7 seconds. Else, DISC FULL is displayed and you cannot enter into the record mode. If the length of the source material is longer than the remaining recording time on the CDR(W) DOES NOT FIT is displayed CD TEXT on the original CD is recorded automatically. When a track with copy protected text is encountered TEXT PROTECT will be displayed. Copyright protection The Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) prevents the making of a digital copy from a digital copy.The system allows making a digital recording from the original, however in some countries this may require the authorization of copyright holders. When you try to record a copy protected material from an external source, COPY PROTECT will be displayed. No further digital recording is possible then. When you try to record a copy protected material from the internal CD changer no digital recording is possible, however the CD recorder will automatically switch to analog recording. It is not possible to copy an MP3-CD.
