• The search function works but search speed is not
constant.
Changing the source
• If you change the source, playback also stops
(without ejecting the disc).
Next time you select “DISC” for the playback source,
disc play starts from where it has been stopped
previously.
Ejecting a disc
• If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds,
the disc is automatically inserted again into the
loading slot to protect it from dust.
• After ejecting a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you
cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another
disc or press SRC to select another playback source.
General settings—PSM
• If you change the “AMP GAIN” setting from “HIGH
PWR” to “LOW PWR” while the volume level is set
higher than “VOL 30,” the unit automatically changes
the volume level to “VOL 30.”
