The disc changer consists of a playing unit, trays which hold the discs, and a stocker which transports the discs on their trays to the disc slot and the playing unit.

For example, if you press DISC 3, the stocker moves until the DISC 3 tray comes to the position of the playing unit and then moves the DISC 3 tray over the playing unit. If you press A of DISC 4 while playing DISC 3, the stocker leaves the DISC 3 tray over the playing unit, moves so that the DISC 4 tray reaches to the position of the disc cover, opens the disc cover and pushes out the DISC 4 tray (EXCHANGE mechanism).

Note

Noise may come from the disc changer when changing discs or turning the system on and off. However, this is just noise produced by the operation of the internal mechanisms and does not indicate a malfunction.
