(not supplied). The Apple-HFS-System cannot be played. This unit requires discs/recordings to meet certain technical standards
in order to achieve optimal playback quality.
There are many different types of recordable disc formats (including CD-R containing MP3 files). Not all recordable discs will
produce optimal playback quality. The technical criteria set forth in this instruction manual are meant only as a guide. Use of CD-
RW for MP3 files is not recommended.
