Thank you for having the manual I needed for an older model Aiwa stero I had found on Ebay --- I wanted the Aiwa because I had tapes and cd's but I did not have a manual as to how to operate the system... I found what I needed and it has enabled me to set the system up for my enjoyment.

MP3-CD PLAYBACK
General information on Writing Formats
There are 3 formats used to record data on a disc: 1 DAO (Disc At Once) All data to be recorded must be prepared and written onto a disc from start to finish in one recording (single session) and will be 'closed' or finalized. You will not be able to add further data onto your CD. 2 Multisession Data is recorded at different times (multisession), where you can delete, copy, move and rename files. However, by default most CD-ROM drives will only access the last session of a CD-ROM disc. You should therefore use information or file pointers about the last session where the old files were located, and about the new files imported from the hard disk, in order to link all sessions and avoid any loss of titles and album arrangement. 3 Packet or Package Writing Packet Writing format divides tracks into smaller pieces of data during recording. Depending on the available spaces on the disc, this means a single CD track recording will be broken up into perhaps 10 fragments of music! IMPORTANT! � THIS SET CANNOT READ recordings created on the following: DirectCD, Packet Writing, Package Writing and UDF. � Do not attempt to combine CD audio and MP3 tracks within a CD-R(W) or CD-ROM, as the set will only be able to playback your CD audio tracks from mixed CD formats.
