To play audio CDs:

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.)

3. Select CD as the media type (described in Selecting the Media Playback Mode).

The CD will start playing automatically when Power-On Play mode is active.

In CD Mode, you can perform any of the following operations:

• To start, resume, or pause playback, press the Play/Pause button.

rewind/fast-forward at 5 times the normal playback speed. To resume playback, release the button.

• To skip directly to a track:

1. If in Pause, Stop, or Play mode, 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, turn

the Jog Dial to select a track and press the Jog Dial to load the track.

2. If the previous track was playing, playback will automatically begin once a new track is selected. If the track

was paused or stopped, press the Play/Pause button to resume playback.

(the list of all tracks will

play in a random order [for up to 256 tracks]), and Single Play () (the current track will play until its end and

then stop.

• To change the Time Mode in the display, press the Time button. It will cycle through Elapsed (how much time

has elapsed of the current track), Remaining (how much time remains of the current track), Total Elapsed Time

(how much time has elapsed of all remaining tracks), and Total Remaining (how much time remains of all

remaining tracks. This applies only to CDs.)

• To eject a CD, press the Eject button when the unit is stopped or paused. Ejecting will appear in the display

while ejecting the CD. No Disc will appear when there is no disc in the CD slot.
