VIDEO-CD PLAYER OPERATION
Direct operation
When the power is off (in the standby mode), pressing the
CD input selector button or the DISC selector (1, 2 or 3)
button will turn the power on and start disc playback
automatically.
When the power is on, even if an input source other than
Video-CD player is selected, pressing a DISC selector button
or closing the disc table by pushing the front edge of the disc
table gently will start playback directly. In this case, if the
tape deck is playing back a tape, it will be stopped
automatically.
* These ways of playback can also be used to close the disc
table. If the table is closed in these ways, playback will
begin automatically, however, the display will not show the
total number of tracks and the total playing time of the disc
to be played back.
PLAYXCHANGE
During playback, you can open the disc table by pressing the
DISC CHANGE button without interrupting playback.
However, in this case, pressing the DISC SKIP button or a
DISC selector button has no effect.
