3 – Preparation
Connecting and disconnecting USB
flash drives
Connecting USB flash drives
Connect a USB flash drive to the USB port on the front of the unit
to enable playback and dubbing with this unit.
NOTE
You can connect a USB flash drive when the unit is on or off.
Disconnecting USB flash drives
Turn the unit off or stop operation before disconnecting a USB
flash drive.
CAUTION
Never disconnect a USB flash drive when the unit is operating
(including playing back or writing data to the USB flash drive).
Doing so could cause proper dubbing to fail, data to be lost,
and sudden loud noises from monitoring equipment, which
might damage the equipment, harm hearing or cause other
trouble.
Setting remote control reception
In order to prevent misoperation, the unit can be set to not ac-
cept remote control commands.
Use the Menu screen IR Remote Lock item to set whether or not
the unit accepts remote control commands. (Default: Unlock)
NOTE
i When the remote control reception setting is Lock, if a remote
control button is pressed, IR Remote Locked will appear on
the display
i The remote-control reception on/off setting is retained even
when the unit is turned off.
Panel lock functions
When the unit is in shift mode (SHIFT indicator lit), press the 1
[LOCK] button to turn the front panel lock function on/off. This
disables front panel button operations.
When the panel is locked, if a front panel button (excluding the
SHIFT and 1 [LOCK] buttons) is used, Panel Locked will appear
on the display.
NOTE
i Even when the panel is locked, external control operations
will be received through the RS-232C connector on the back
of the unit.
i Even when the panel is locked, operations can be received
from the remote control. This behavior depends, however, on
the IR Remote Lock item setting on the Menu Screen.
i The panel lock function on/off setting is retained even when
the unit is turned off.

Selecting the playback source
Press the main unit or remote control SOURCE button to select
the source played back by the main unit.
This changes the current source in the following order.
CD
USB
SD
BLUETOOTH
DAB
FM
AUX
Current source switching order
The name of the current source (CD, USB, SD, BLUETOOTH, DAB, FM
or AUX) appears in the current source display area on the Home
Screen.
NOTE
i When the current source is switched from CD to any other in-
put source, the CD will stop if it is playing back or paused.
In the same way, when switching from an SD card to another
medium or from a USB flash drive to another input source, the
previous source will stop if playing back or pause. (Bluetooth
and AUX will not stop.)
i The playback mode setting is not cleared when the current
source changes.
