Presetting Disc NamesStore the names of discs to be displayed when played.

1Play the disc whose name you want to preset.

NOTE

This function is not available for disc changers that do not feature the Disc Name Preset function.

This procedure is not to be used to store the disc and track titles for MDs that you record.

2Press the NAME.S button for at least two seconds. "NAME SET" is displayed and the disc name preset mode is entered.

The cursor blinks in the position where character input can be made.

3Press either the 4 or ¢ button to move the cursor to the desired position.

The 4 button moves the cursor to the left, and the ¢ button to the right.

You can also move the cursor left or right by pressing the TRACK+ or TRACKbuttons, respectively, on the remote control.

4Press the DISC+ or DISCbutton to display the desired character.

Besides the alphabet (capital letters only) and numbers, you can choose the following characters: /, +, , *, =, <, >, [ and ].

NOTE

You can enter up to eight characters for each name.

6Press either the NAME.S button on the main unit or the OK button on the remote.

The disc name is stored and the disc name preset mode is canceled.

If you make no entry in a 10-second period, the name will be stored with the characters input so far.

NOTE

With the CD changer, you can only store names for up to 100 CDs (The KDC-C710, KDC-C660 and KDC-C660C disc changers can store names for up to 50 discs.), and with the MD changer,you can only store names for up to 30 MDs. If you store the name for a 101st (51st) CD or 31st MD, the first name stored for the type of disc will be erased automatically.

Discs are identified by their total length and number of tracks. If another disc happens to have the same specifications as one that you have already stored a name for, the name will be displayed for it, too.

If you want to change the name of a disc, repeat steps 1 and 2 to display the name, and then repeat steps 3 and 4 to input the changes.

Pressing the RESET button does not erase the disc names stored in a disc changer.
