If the tray is closed in these ways, play will begin automatically, however, the display will not show the total number of tracks and the total recorded time of the first selected disc.

PLAYXCHANGE

During play, you can open the disc tray by pressing the PLAYXCHANGE button on the front panel without interrupting disc play . However, in this case, pressing the DISC SKIP button has no effect. You can load or replace discs on the trays when the disc tray is opening, however, never load a

disc on the tray hidden inside the unit. If doing so, the disc and the unit may be damaged, because the tray already has a disc, which is being played.

To stop play temporarily

➀ Encloses the tray number of the selected disc. ➁ The numbers corresponding to trays that contain discs light

up after discs are selected.

➂ Shows the selected track number. ➃ Shows the time displays. (Refer to “Selecting time

displays” and “Selecting text displays” on page 11.)

➄ Displays the numbers that correspond to the numbers of

the tracks (as high as number 20) on the selected disc. After each track is played, its corresponding number disappears so the number of remaining tracks (and their numbers) can be seen at a glance.

➅ Shows the level of signals output into an amplifier or the

headphones level adjusted by using the OUTPUT LEVEL buttons.

To play an 8-cm (3-inch) CD

Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put a normal (12-cm/5-inch) CD on top of an 8-cm CD.

To stop play completely
