Storing Information About CDs (Custom Files)

What You Can Do With the Custom Files

The player can store two types of information called “Custom Files” for each disc. Once you have stored Custom Files for a disc, the player automatically recalls what you have stored whenever you select the disc. Note that Custom Files will be erased if you do not use the player for about one month.

You can store this information:

Labeling Discs (Disc Memo) Z

You can label discs using up to 12 characters and have the player display the Disc Memo each time you select the disc. The Disc Memo can be anything you like, such as a title, musician’s name, category, or date of purchase.

When you select a CD TEXT disc

The disc title is stored as the Disc Memo automatically. If the disc title has more than 12 characters, the first 12 characters of the disc title are stored (see page 9).

Note that you cannot change the Disc Memo of the CD TEXT disc.
