File extensions
Always add a file extension “.MP3” to MP3 file
by using single byte letters. If you add a file
extension other than specified or forget to add
the file extension, the file cannot be played.
Never simply change any file extension to
.MP3” as this will cause unexpected result
and may damage the unit as well. Please use
appropriate audio converter to change to valid
mp3 files.
Logical format

1. When writing MP3 file on a SD/MMC card,
please select “FAT12” or “FAT16” as the
system file format. Please be aware that the

or larger with FAT32 by default. Thus, if the disk

during formatting. Thus, please backup your
data accordingly.
