Playing discs

•Some DVD discs restrict the use of some functions (random or repeat, for example). This is not a malfunction.

•When playing Video CDs, some of the functions are not available during PBC playback. If you want to use them, start the disc playing using a number button to select a track.

•Many features are not available when using unfinalized CD-R/RW discs.

Playing only CDs and WMA/ MP3 discs (CD mode)

Using this feature you can play only the CDs and WMA/MP3 discs loaded in the disc tray— automatically skipping over any DVDs and Video CDs loaded. This may be useful if you have a mixture of discs loaded but only want to play music: you don't have to keep track of what kind of disc is where in the disc tray.

1Press CD MODE (SHIFT + DISC SKIP) to switch CD mode on.

•The indicator on the front panel lights when CD mode is on.

2 Press (play) to start playback.

The first CD loaded automatically starts to play.

Once all the CD/WMA/MP3 discs loaded have played, playback automatically stops.

•To cancel the CD mode, press CD MODE (SHIFT + DISC SKIP) again.

•If you open the disc tray and load a DVD, Video CD or JPEG disc in the front-most

position then press (play) (on the front panel), CD mode is canceled.

•You can't switch on CD mode while playing a DVD or Video CD. Stop playback first.

•Although program play is not possible in CD mode, it is possible to program a playlist. When you start program play-back, however, CD mode is canceled.

•Repeat and random play is possible in CD mode (see Using repeat play on page 45 and Using random play on page 46).

Scanning discs
