Checking the information of CD TEXT discs
CD TEXT discs have information, such as the disc titles
or artist names, memorised in a blank space on the
discs where, on normal discs, there is no information.
The display shows the CD TEXT information of the
disc so that you can check the current disc title, artist
name and track title. When the player detects a CD
TEXT disc, "CD TEXT" appears in the display. If your
CD TEXT disc has multi-language capacity, "MULTI
CD TEXT" appears in the display. If you want to check
the information in another language, refer to "Selecting
the language of the CD TEXT information" on page 15.
Display information in stop mode
The display shows the disc title. When you press
TIME/TEXT, the artist name scrolls in the display. If
you press TIME/TEXT again, the display shows the
current disc number, total number of tracks, and total
playing time of the disc momentarily. Then the display
shows the disc title again.
