Playing Back CDs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)
This unit has been designed to play back the following CDs:
• CD (Audio CD)
• CD-R (CD-Recordable)
• CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)
Continued use of irregular shape CDs
(heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage
the unit.
When playing a CD-R or CD-RW
User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs
(CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already
“finalized.”
• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs
recorded in music CD format. (However, they may not be
played back depending on their characteristics or recording
conditions.)
• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their
instructions or cautions carefully.
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this
unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain
on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.
• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused
by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for
regular CDs.

About the CD ready lamps
Each CD ready lamp corresponds to the disc tray of the
same number.
• When and why they light up?
– When you turn on the unit for the first time after
plugging into a wall outlet, all CD ready lamps (CD1
READY, CD2 READY, and CD3 READY) lights up.
From the next time on, CD ready lamp(s) light(s) up
according to the previous condition.
– Each time you press the CD eject buttons—0 (CD1,
CD2, and CD3), the corresponding CD ready lamp
lights up.
• When and why they go off?
Only when the unit detects there is no CD loaded on a
certain tray, the corresponding CD ready lamp goes off.
(“NO DISC 1,” “NO DISC 2,” or “NO DISC 3”
appears on the display.)
• When and why they flash?
The corresponding CD ready lamp flashes during
playback and pause.
