Tips

You can switch from another source to the VIDEO CD player and start playing a VIDEO CD just by pressing one of the DISC 1~3 buttons (Automatic Source Selection).

If there is no VIDEO CD in the player, “CD NO DISC” appears in the display.

When a disc tray holding a VIDEO CD is selected (or the VIDEO CD in the disc tray is playing) the disc pointer indicator lights. When a disc tray holding a VIDEO CD is not selected, the disc presence indicator lights, but the disc pointer indicator does not light. When all disc trays are empty, both the disc presence indicator and disc pointer indicator light.

Note

When a tray has not been read by the unit, the disc presence indicator may light even though there is no disc on the tray.
