The CD changer plays up to six standard size CDs continuously. Individual CDs
may be loaded or ejected into or from any position.
An amber light on each numbered button indicates a CD is loaded in the respective
position. A green light on a numbered button indicates that a CD is playing. When
loading CDs, the loading slot indicators turn green to indicate that the player is
ready to accept a CD. CDs can be loaded or ejected with the radio or the ignition
off.
You must load CDs with the label side up. If you do not, the player will automatically
eject the CDs.
Notice: Loading CDs with adhesive labels will damage the player.
To load a CD, perform the following steps:
- Press the LOAD button. Available positions will blink green.
- Select a position by pressing the numbered button with the green blinking
light. If a button is not pressed within five seconds, the changer will go to the
lowest available position.
- Load the CD when the loading slot indicators turn green. An internal door
will open allowing a single CD to be inserted into the changer. After approximately
10 seconds the changer will be ready to play.
To load two or more CDs, perform the following steps:
- Press and hold the LOAD button. The first CD will be loaded into the lowest
numbered empty position.
- Load a single CD when the loading slot indicators turn green. After about
10 seconds the changer will cycle to the next available position.
- Repeat Step 2 until all CDs are loaded into all of the desired
positions. If you do not wish to load all of the positions, cancel loading by pressing
and releasing the load button or wait 25 seconds for the changer to time out.
To eject a single CD, perform the following steps:
- Press the eject button (upward pointing arrow). The buttons with loaded
CDs will blink green.
- Press one of the green blinking buttons to select the location of the
CD you want to eject. The changer will move to that location and eject the CD. If
you do not remove the CD from the player within 25 seconds, it
will be reloaded. If the eject button is pressed and a numbered location button is
not pressed within five seconds, the current or last played CD will be ejected.
To eject all CDs, press and hold the eject button.
To play a CD, perform one of the following:
• | With the radio on, press the numbered button with an amber indicator light
on the CD changer. |
• | Press the TAPE/DISC button on the radio. The CD changer will go to its
last played position. |
