Notes

•If a disc with no MP3 files (tracks) is inserted, “CD” appears in the disc type display to start playback but there will be no sound.

•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 play begins. During this time, “READ” is displayed. Please wait for play to start automatically when the reading is complete.

Cautions when connecting MGS-X1 and MD unit(s) This unit recognizes MGS-X1 as an MD unit.

•When you want to play MGS-X1, press (SOURCE) to select “MS” or “MD.” If “MS” appears in the source display, MGS-X1 starts to play. If “MD” appears in the source display, press (MODE) to select “MS,” to start playback.

•When you want to play an MD unit, press (SOURCE) to select “MD” or “MS.” If your desired MD unit appears in the source display, it starts to play. If “MS” or another MD unit appears in the source display, press (MODE) to select your desired MD unit, to start playback.
