Inserting a disc
Hold the disc with its label side up and insert it part way
into the disc slot. Push the disc in a little further and, just
before it disappears, it should automatically be pulled
into the player. After a disc is loaded, the player will read
its information. If it is an audio CD, the display will show
the total number of tracks and total playback time. If it is
a data CD, the display will show the total number of tracks
in the current directory.
CAUTION
You cannot load a disc when the power is off.

If the disc becomes caught or is otherwise difficult
•
to push, do not force it in. Press the EJECT button
and remove the disc once before trying to reinsert it.
(Forcing the disc into the player could damage the disc
or even break the player.)
If a disc other than an audio CD is inserted or a disc is
•
inserted upside down, it will automatically be ejected.
8-cm CDs cannot be used with this unit. If an 8-cm CD

is inserted, it will automatically be ejected. If it is not
automatically ejected completely, press the EJECT
