When in the 3-CD changer stop mode (CD PLAYER indicator is
shown in the display window), press the PLAY MODE button
(main unit/remote control) repeatedly until “CD RANDOM” is
shown in the information display. The RANDOM indicator will be
shown in the PLAY MODE section of the display window.

Note
• The random playback mode cannot be used for discs loaded in

the CDR. 

• Random play is started by pressing the CD Control PLAY 

p

button on the main unit or the 

p (play) button on the remote

control.

• When activated, tracks are chosen randomly for playback from

the CDs loaded in the 3-CD changer. The tracks chosen will be
lit in the music calendar and the SKIP ON lamp turns off. 

• Selection is made only once, from 1 to 99 tracks, and playback

ends after the last track is played.

• Tracks assigned a SKIP TRACK mark will not be chosen. 
• The CD tray, track number and playback time of the CD cur-

rently being played are shown in the information display.

• Track selection with the number buttons is not accepted during

the random playback mode.

When the unit is in the 3-CD changer stop mode, press the PLAY
MODE button repeatedly until the RANDOM indicator is cleared
from the PLAY MODE section of the display window.

There are 3 CD pitch control buttons on the remote control that can
be used to vary the speed of CD playback up to 12% faster or
slower than the standard playback speed. This function can be use-
ful in changing the pitch when matching the playback speed of the
CD with another source.

To increase the speed of playback, press PITCH+. To decrease the
speed of playback, press PITCH–. Each press of a button increases
or decreases playback speed 1%.

• To restore the playback speed to normal, press PITCH 0.
• The adjusted playback speed can only be recorded using analog

recording functions such as mixed recording.

• Even if the pitch has been adjusted, when digital synchronized

recording is performed, the pitch is automatically restored to 0.

• The amount of pitch adjustment (+/–/0) is shown in the infor-

mation display when one of the pitch buttons is pressed. 

• When the speed of CD playback is changed using the pitch con-

trol buttons, there is no signal output from the DIGITAL OUT
OPTICAL terminal.

• Pitch control cannot be used for the CDR.

The Disc Lock function can be used to make it impossible for chil-
dren or anyone else to take CDs out of or load new ones into the 3-
CD changer and CDR. This function helps to ensure that timer play
and recording functions are performed correctly.
• When the power is in standby, press the DISC1 OPEN/CLOSE

0 button while holding down the CD Control STOP s button
on the front panel. “TRAY LOCKED” will be shown in the
information display for 3 seconds, after which it is no longer
possible to remove or load CDs.

To cancel the Disc Lock function.
Repeat the same step followed to lock the trays. “TRAY
UNLOCKED” will be shown in the information display for 3 sec-
onds, after which the Disc Lock function is canceled.
Note
• The Disc Lock function is canceled if the AC power cord is

unplugged from the wall outlet.
