Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prevent accidental power on or interruptions while using the unit?
Use the HOLD function. This setting causes the unit to ignore accidental button presses and prevents it from powering on accidentally or interrupting play.
What types of CD/disc formats can this unit play?
It can play MP3 files recorded to discs, including both CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded with either CD-DA or MP3 format.
Why might the unit not read an MP3 file correctly?
Possible causes include shaking while reading, using a multi-session disc with large data segments, or poor recording quality in the case of noise.
What should I do if the display light on the remote doesn't come on when buttons are pressed?
The unit must be off before recharging the batteries. Ensure you insert two new batteries for initial recharge.
