 Operating Tips for MP3

    MP3 stands for MPEG Audio Layer 3, 
which is standardized voice compression 
established by the ISO 

*1

  working group 

(MPEG).
  Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be 
compressed to approximately a tenth of 
the source data size.
  This  unit  plays  fi les with the extension 
(.mp3) as MP3 fi les.

fi les other than audio fi les. In addition, 
do not change the audio fi le extension. 
Otherwise, the unit will not recognize 
the fi le correctly resulting in noise or a 
malfunction.
