Quick-Start Guide

Naming Discs and Tracks

4
Before applying power
Discs can be given disc names (up to 25 characters), and up to 20 tracks per disc can also be named (up to 15 characters each). Although the most convenient time to enter disc and track names is when you insert the discs into the player for the first time,
(that way the player keeps track of the disc names for you as you insert the discs), you can use this procedure to enter or change disc and track names any time you want.
These instructions explain how to enter disc names when you insert the discs into the player for the first time.
