4 – CD player

The CC-222MKII can be used to play back CDs 
(including CD-R and CD-RW discs that have been 
recorded and finalized on other types of recorder), as 

well as CD-R discs and CD-RW discs that have been 
recorded on the unit.

Simple playback operations

1

Press the 

OPEN/CLOSE

 key to open the disc 

tray.

2

Discs should be inserted in the tray with the 
label uppermost.

3

Press the 

OPEN/CLOSE

 key to close the tray 

again.

When a disc is loaded into the unit, the display 
briefly shows 

TOC Reading.

, with a flashing 

period following the word “Reading” as the unit 
determines the contents of the disc. When the TOC 
has been read, the display shows (at the left of the 
display) one of the following:

1

Press the 

PLAY

 key to start playback.

2

Press the 

STOP

 key to stop playback (note that 

no digital signal is output when playback is 
stopped).

3

Press the 

PAUSE

 key to pause playback 

temporarily.

The track number indicators at the bottom of the dis-
play light, to show the available unplayed tracks. If 
there are thirteen tracks on the disc, for example, 
indicators 

1

 through 

13

 will light. If there are more 

than 20 tracks on a disc, the track number 

OVER

 indi-

cator (at the bottom of the display) will light.

Time display modes

When playing back a CD (or when in pause mode), 
there are four different time display modes.

In each mode, the current track number is given, fol-
lowed by the time, as given below, e.g.

10

Tr

 0:48

Press the 

DISPLAY

 key to cycle through these time 

display modes, as described here:

NOTE

If programmed playback has been selected (“Pro-
grammed order playback” on page 22), the elapsed 
time and total remaining time refer to the programmed 
material, not the whole disc.

Track search

Use the 

MULTI DIAL 

(or the 

 SKIP

 keys on the 

remote control unit) to jump forward or backward by 
one track at a time, as shown on the display.

Note that going forward from the last track of the 
disc will “wrap round” to track 1, and going back-
ward from the first track of the disc will “wrap 
round” to the last track of the disc.

The track number indicators at the bottom of the dis-
play shows the selected track (the lit indicator at the 
left of the row of indicators).

It is also possible to use the number keys on the 
remote control unit to jump directly to a particular 
track:

1

To play tracks 1 through 9, simply press the 
appropriate key (

1

 through 

9
