• After ejectin a disc, “NO DISC” appears and you cannot

operate some of the buttons. Insert another disc or press

SRC to select another playback source.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however,

unclosed sessions will be skipped while playin .

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this

unit:

– Discs are dirty or scratched.

– Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens inside

the unit.

– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

– The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written usin the

“Packet Write” method.

– There are improper recordin conditions (missin data,

etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped,

etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a lon er readout time since the

reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of re ular CDs.

Basic operations

• By pressin SRC on the unit, you can also turn on the

power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

• If you turn off the power while listenin to a disc, disc

play will start from where it had been stopped previously
