Playing Audio CDs
To play audio CDs:
1. If the unit is off, press the Power Button to power it on.
Important: Do not insert a CD when the power is off. Doing so may damage the unit.
2. Insert a CD into the CD Slot. (Hold the edges of the CD without touching the recorded
surface. Be careful not to trap your fingers when the disc is drawn into the unit.)
Important: This unit can play finalized discs only. (Finalization is the process that makes
recorded CD-R discs playable on compatible players.)
3. Select CD as the media type by pressing the Funct button on the unit or remote control.
4. To start playback, press the Play button on the unit or remote control.
In CD Mode, you can perform any of the following operations:
• To start, resume, or pause playback, press the Play/Pause button.
• To stop playback, press the Stop button.
• To rewind or fast-forward through the track, press and hold one of the Skip buttons. To
resume playback, release the button.
• To skip directly to a track, press one of the Number buttons (0–9) to enter the desired
track number. If the track number is two digits, press the buttons in succession (e.g., 1
then 2 for Track 12). Alternatively, press the Skip buttons. Press the Play button after
loading the track to have it begin playback.
• To select a Repeat Playback mode, press the Repeat button. See
> Repeat Modes
• To change the Time Mode in the display, press the Remain button on the remote
control. It will cycle through track time elapsed, track time remaining, and total CD time
remaining.
• To eject a CD, press the Eject button when the unit is stopped or paused. "Eject" will
appear in the display while ejecting the CD. No Disc will appear when there is no disc in
the CD slot.
