•The track number is cleared from the music calendar when the corresponding track has finished playing.

•In this example, playback proceeds through all of the tracks on DISC1, DISC2 and DISC3, and stops automatically after the last track on DISC3 has finished playing. This pattern changes depending on the first disc selected for play, as described in the

following section.

When one or more CDs are already in the trays.

•Press the button of the CD tray that you want to start playback from. Continuous play will start playback from the CD in that tray.

•When play starts from DISC2

The CDs are played in the sequence of DISC2 ŒDISC3 DISC1, and then playback stops automatically.

•When play starts from DISC3

The CDs are played in the sequence of DISC3 ŒDISC1Œ DISC2, and then playback stops automatically.

If one of the trays does not contain a CD, play skips to the CD in the next tray in the sequence.

Notes

•The DISC SELECTOR 1, 2, and 3 buttons do not function dur- ing program and random play modes.

•If a tray is opened and closed when it is not the current tray in use, the unit temporarily assigns the tray a NO DISC status. When it becomes time to play the disc in this tray, the disc information is read, and if there is no disc, the unit will move on to the next tray.

•The total track time does not always match total play time (time shown in display window) exactly because the playback time includes lead-in and lead-out spaces as well.

Press the CD Control PLAY p button to select the 3-CD changer function. This automatically starts playback of the disc in the cur- rently selected tray.

•The currently selected tray is indicated by the red ““mark appearing to the immediate right of the CD icon in the display window.
