• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play
back on this unit because of their disc
characteristics, and for the following causes:
– Discs are dirty or scratched.
– Moisture condensation occurs on the lens
inside the unit.
– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.
– CD-R/CD-RW on which the files are
written with “Packet Write” method.
– There are improper recording conditions
(missing data, etc.) or media conditions
(stain, scratch, warp, etc.).
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time
since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower
than that of regular CDs.
• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:
– Discs with stickers, labels, or protective seal
stuck to the surface.
– Discs on which labels can be directly
printed by an ink jet printer.
Using these discs under high temperatures
or high humidity may cause malfunctions or
damages to the unit.
