Precautions

• If your car was parked in direct sunlight, allow

the unit to cool off before operating it.

• Power aerial will extend automatically while

the unit is operating.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your unit that are not covered in this

manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

On safety

• Comply with the Traffic Laws in your country.

• For your safety, the images from VIDEO IN

turns off automatically when the parking brake

is not applied.

Moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture

condensation may occur inside the lenses and

display of the unit. Should this occur, the unit

will not operate properly. In such a case, remove

the disc and wait for about an hour until the

moisture has evaporated.

To maintain high sound quality

Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks

onto the unit or discs.

Notes on LCD display

• Do not push the LCD display strongly. It may

cause injury or damage the display.

• Bright points of light (red, blue, or green) or

black dots may appear on the LCD display.

This is not a malfunction. The LCD is made

with high-precision technology and more than

99.99 % of the picture element is intact.

However, tiny elements of the picture may

show the above symptoms.

Preventing an accident

The images appear only after you park the car

and set the parking brake.

When the car starts moving, the images coming

from the VIDEO IN automatically disappear

after displaying the following caution.

The images on the display are turned off, but

CD/MP3 sound can be heard.

Do not operate the unit or watch the display

window while driving.

Notes on discs

• To keep discs clean, do not touch the surface.

Handle a disc by its edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc

magazines when not in use.

• Do not subject the discs to heat/high

temperature. Avoid leaving them in parked cars

or on dashboards/rear trays.

• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky

ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning

when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin

the disc.

• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers

attached.

The following malfunctions may result from

using such discs:

– Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or

sticker peeling off and jamming the eject

mechanism).

– Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g.,

playback skipping, or no playback) due to

heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a

disc to warp.

• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart,

square, star) cannot be played on this unit.

Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do

not use such discs.

• You cannot play 8 cm CDs.

• Before playing, clean the discs with a

commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe

each disc from the centre out. Do not use

solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially

available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended

for analogue discs.

Music discs encoded with copyright

protection

This product is designed to play back discs that

conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.

Recently, various music discs encoded with

copyright protection are marketed by some

record companies. Please be aware that among

those discs, there are some that do not conform to

the CD standard and may not be playable by this

product.

Notes on CD-Rs (recordable CDs)/CD-

RWs (rewritable CDs)

This unit can play the following discs:

• Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs (depending on the

equipment used for its recording or the

condition of the disc) may not play on this unit.

• You cannot play a CD-R/CD-RW that is not

finalized*.

• You can play MP3 files recorded on CD-

ROMs, CD-Rs, and CD-RWs.

• A CD-R/CD-RW to which a session can be

added can be played.

* A process necessary for a recorded CD-R/CD-RW

disc to be played on the audio CD player.

About MP3 files

MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) is a standard

technology and format for compressing a sound

sequence. The file is compressed to about 1/10 of

its original size. Sounds outside the range of

human hearing are compressed while the sounds

we can hear are not compressed.

Notes on discs

You can play MP3 files recorded on CD-ROMs,

CD-Rs, and CD-RWs.

The disc must be in the ISO 9660*

1

level 1 or

level 2 format, or Joliet or Romeo in the

expansion format.

You can use a disc recorded in Multi Session*

2

.

*

1

ISO 9660 Format

The most common international standard for

the logical format of files and folders on a

CD-ROM.

There are several specification levels. In

Level 1, file names must be in the 8.3 format

(no more than 8 characters in the name, no

more than 3 characters in the extension

“.MP3”) and in capital letters. Folder names

can be no longer than 8 characters. There can

be no more than 8 nested folder levels. Level

2 specifications allow file names up to 31

characters long.

Each folder can have up to 8 trees.

For Joliet or Romeo in the expansion format,

make sure of the contents of the writing

software, etc.

*

2

Multi Session

This is a recording method that enables

adding of data using the Track-At-Once

method. Conventional CDs begin at a CD

control area called the Lead-in and end at an

area called Lead-out. A Multi Session CD is a

CD having multiple sessions, with each

segment from Lead-in to Lead-out regarded

as a single session.

CD-Extra: The format which records audio

(audio CD data) as tracks on session 1, and

records data as tracks on session 2.

Mixed CD: In this format, data is recorded as

track 1, and audio (audio CD data) is recorded

as track 2.

Type of discs Label on the disc

Audio CD

MP3 files

11

Notes

• With formats other than ISO 9660 level 1 and level 2,

folder names or file names may not be displayed

correctly.

• When naming, be sure to add the file extension

“.MP3” to the file name.

• If you put the extension “.MP3” to a file other than

MP3, the unit cannot recognise the file properly and

will generate random noise that could damage your

speakers.

• The following discs take a longer time to start

playback.

– a disc recorded with complicated tree structure.

– a disc recorded in Multi Session.

– a disc to which data can be added.

Cautions when playing a disc that is recorded in

Multi Session

• When the first track of the first session is audio CD

data:

Only audio CD data is played back.

Non-audio CD data/MP3 file information (track

number, time, etc.) is displayed with no sound.

• When the first track of the first session is not audio

CD data:

– If an MP3 file is in the disc, only MP3 file(s) play

back and other data is skipped (Audio CD data is

not recognised).

– If no MP3 file is in the disc, “Disc NO Music” is

displayed and nothing is played back (Audio CD

data is not recognised).

The playback order of the MP3 files

The playback order of the folders and files is as

follows:

Notes

• A folder that does not include an MP3 file is skipped.

• Maximum folder number: 150 (including root folder

and empty folders).

• Maximum number of MP3 files and folders that can

be contained in a disc: 300.

When a file/folder name contains many characters,

this number may become less than 300.

• Maximum number of trees that can be played: 8.

Tip

To specify a desired playback order, before the folder

or file name, input the order by number (e.g., “01,”

“02”), then record contents onto a disc (The order

differs depending on the writing software).
