Using the CD Player

You can use Normal, Random, Program or Repeat Play. Re-
peat Play can repeat all the tracks or just one of the tracks
on the CD.
Here are the basic things you need to know to play a CD and
locate the different tracks on it.

This unit has been designed only to playback the CDs bear-
ing the marks.

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

You can play back finalized CD-R or CD-RW recorded mu-
sic CD format.

You can play back CD-R or CD-RW like CD.

Some CD-R or CD-RW may not be played back on this 
unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain 
on them, or if the player lens is dirty.

The reflection factor of CD-RW is lower than that of oth-
er CD, possibly causing CD-RW to take longer to read.

The Quickest Way To Start a CD Is With the One
Touch Operation 

Press the CD 

#¥8

 button on the Remote Control.

• The power is automatically turned on and the Top Cover 

moves backward to allow the Unit’s top button opera-
tion. If a CD is already inserted, it will start playing from 
the first track. 

• If no CD is inserted, “NO DISC” appears on the display 

and the CD Player remains in Stop mode. 

To Insert a CD

1

Press the OPEN/CLOSE button on the 
Unit (or the CD 

0

 button on the 

Remote Control).

The Top Cover opens.

2

Place a CD, with its label side up as 
shown below. Press down on the CD’s 
center until you hear a click.

3

Press the OPEN/CLOSE button (or CD 

0

 

button) again to close the Top Cover.

• To close the Top Cover and play the CD, you can just 

press the CD

 #¥8

 button.

You can place an 8 cm (3'') CD without an adaptor.

If the CD cannot be read correctly (because it is 
scratched, for example), “ 0 0:00” appears on the display.

You can insert a CD while listening to the other source.

CAUTION:

• DO NOT try to open or close the Top Cover

by hands as it will be damaged.
