About the DISC (1-7) indicators
Each DISC indicator shows the current status of the
corresponding tray as follows:
• The circle of the DISC indicator will light if a disc is set
in the corresponding disc tray. (The numbers 1-7 are
always lit.)
• The circle is unlit if no disc is set in the corresponding
disc tray.
About the music calendar
When a disc to be played back is read, the contents (track
numbers) of the disc appear on the music calendar. As
the track is finished to play back or skipped, the track
number will disappear from the music calendar.

NOTES
• Inserted disc is detected when the carousel is turned.
So, until then, the unit cannot know the disc presence
status of the disc tray. For such disc trays, the unit
temporarily turns on the corresponding indicators.
• During program play mode, the number shows the
presence of disc and the circle shows the disc being
programed.
• During random play mode, the number shows the
presence of disc and the circle shows the disc being
played back for random play.
NOTE
• During program play mode, only the programed tracks
appear on the music calendar.
