They do so in an attempt to improve speech when heard through conventional radios. In high-quality audio products, this results in sound that is unnatural or bass heavy. By selecting the TALK RADIO mode, your Wave® music system automatically adjusts to compensate for artificially boosted low frequencies. Play Mode When the radio is playing, press Play Mode twice to turn the TALK RADIO mode on or off. Note: The TALK RADIO setting is automatically cancelled when you tune to another station, switch to another source, or turn your Wave® music system off. 10 Playing Compact Discs Playing audio compact discs (CDs) Insert the disc, label side up, into the CD slot below the display.

You can easily navigate through your music files using the Tune/MP3 and Seek/Track remote control buttons. Note: MP3 is a music compression technology that reduces a song's file size without noticeable effect in the quality of the sound. Through compression algorithms, the MP3 format makes it easy for you to store many times the number of songs you would find on a conventional audio CD. In fact, an MP3 CD can contain as much music as ten standard audio CDs on just one disc, which can then be organized into folders on a PC before being stored on the disc. [. . . ] Do not use any liquid cleaning solutiuons, solvents, chemicals, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives. CAUTION: Do not allow liquids to spill into any openings in the enclosure.
