Playing MP3 Files
Play: Press the Release button to slide open the faceplate, showing the CD (insertion) slot. Holding the media with the labeled side facing up, insert it in the slot. The media will start playing. Push back the bottom of the faceplate with your hand until it locks. The IN indicator will light when a media has been inserted.
2CAUTION

Doing so will cause breakdown.
NOTE

� When you load a media and eject it right away, the next time you try to insert the media may not load. In such a situation, take the media out for a moment and then reinsert it. � The MP3 media that this unit can play are CD-ROM, CD-R, and CD-RW. The medium formats must be ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2. The methods and precautions to be followed for writing MP3 files are covered in "Notes on playing MP3 files" (page 8). Check that section before creating your MP3 media. � It takes time for the unit to check each medium to see if it contains any MP3 file before it starts playing the medium. � While the control panel is sliding, only available buttons are 0, ATT, L, M and SRC.

When inserting a media, make sure the media has been completely drawn in before pushing back the faceplate. Failing to do so might scratch the media. Playing Media Already Inserted: Press the SRC button repeatedly to select the CD mode. "CD" is displayed when the CD mode has been selected. The media will start playing. Pausing and Restarting Media Play: Press the 38 button to make the media pause. Press the same button again to start play again.
NOTE

File Search
Search forward or backward through the files on the media until you reach the one that you want to listen to. Making a Backward File Search: Press the 4 button to display the desired file number. Press once to search back to the beginning of the current file, twice to search back to the beginning of the previous file, and so forth. Play starts at the beginning of the displayed file number. Making a Forward File Search: Press the ¢ button to display the desired file number. Press once to fast forward to the next file, twice to fast forward to the file after that, and so forth. Play starts at the beginning of the displayed file number.
NOTE

MP3-related operations (such as a file search and folder search) cannot be performed during a pause. Cancel the pause before you can perform such operations. Eject: Press the release button and slide open the faceplate. Press the 0 button. The media stops playing and ejects from the slot. Push back the bottom of the faceplate with your hand until it locks.
2CAUTION

� Do not attempt to insert a media into the slot if another one is already there. � When the faceplate has been slid open, it might interfere with the shift lever or something else. If this happens, pay attention to safety and move the shift lever or take an appropriate action, then operate the unit. � Do not use the unit with the faceplate in the slid condition.

It may take time for the file search depending on the number of files and the state of the folder hierarchy.
