You can use the buttons both on the remote control and  
on the unit for the same operations if they have the same  
or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned otherwise.  
• Basic and common information that is the same for many  
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in each  
procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the information  
about turning on/off the unit, setting the volume, changing  
the sound effects, and others, which are explained in the  
section “Common Operations” on pages 9 to 10.  
Others

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 playback 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.  
• If the CD cannot be read correctly (because it is scratched, for  
example)  
“00 0000” appears on the display.  
• If no CD is inserted  
“NO DISC” appears on the display.  
During Reading period, sometimes noise is generated by CD  
mechanism.  
• If an unreadable CD-R or CD-RW is inserted  
“BLANK CD” appears on the display.  
• 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.)  
DO NOT try to open or close the CD tray by hand as  
it will be damaged.
