Playing CDs
Checking the information of CD TEXT discs
(CDP-XE530 only)
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 CD
TEXT discs, the "CD TEXT" indication appears in the
display. If your CD TEXT disc has multi language
capacity, "CD TEXT" and "MULTI" indications appear
in the display. If you want to check the information in
another language, refer to "Checking the information
of CD TEXT discs in other languages" on page 8.
Each time you press TIME/TEXT (or TIME on the
remote), the display changes as shown in the chart
below.

Checking the information of CD TEXT discs
in other languages (CDP-XE530 only)
You can change the displayed language if your CD
TEXT disc has multi language capacity. When the
player detects such a CD TEXT disc, the display shows
the current operating language after "CD TEXT" and
"MULTI" appear in the display.
If the player cannot read the language memorised in a
CD TEXT disc, the display shows "<OTHER LANG>"
after the player detects the disc.
