Notes

Before playing a track, this unit reads all track and album information on the disc. Depending on the track structure, it may take more than a minute before playback begins. During this time, “READ” is displayed. Please wait for play to start automatically when the reading is complete.

Depending on the condition of the disc, it may not play back (page 6, 7).

While the first/last track on the disc is playing, if (SEEK) (+) or (SEEK) (–)is pressed, playback skips to the last/first track of the disc.

When the last track on the disc is over, playback restarts from the first track of the disc.

With optional unit connected, playback of the same source will continue on to the optional CD/MD unit.

If you play a high-bit rate MP3 file such as 320 kbps, sound may be intermittent.

Note when playing back a CD with no MP3 files

If a disc with no MP3 files is inserted:

in the case of this unit, “NO MUSIC” appears in the display, and the display becomes the clock display (CD playback stops).

in the case of an optional MP3 compatible CD unit, “NO MUSIC” appears in the display and playback of the next disc starts.

in the case of an optional CD unit, which is incompatible with MP3, the disc will play back with no sound.
