With the compact disc changer, you can play up to six normal size discs continuously.
When the radio is powered on, the changer will begin checking for discs in the
magazine. This will continue for up to one and a half minutes, depending on the number
of discs loaded. You may hear noise, but this is normal. The CD changer is initializing.
Press the CD hard key to access the six-disc CD changer screen. You can also
use the system's DVD player for single CD play once the map DVD is removed. See "CD/DVD
Player" later in this section for more information.
If no CD is loaded in the CD/DVD Player and you press the CD hard key, the
message "No CD loaded" will appear on the display.
CD Changer Screen
Once you access the CD changer screen, you can select one of the numbered buttons
to go from one compact disc to another among those loaded in the CD changer and use
the arrows to rewind or fast forward through the disc selected.
The following features are also available from this screen:
• | RANDOM DISC or RANDOM ALL |
• | and SCAN THE TRACKS or SCAN THE DISCS. |
The numbered buttons (1 through 6) represent the order of the discs loaded in
the changer. If there are only two CDs loaded, buttons 1 and 2 will only be available
to choose from.

into the changer. It may take up to 10 seconds for the changer to accept the CD into

up to six discs.
Press and hold this button until you hear a beep. You
can now load one CD after another, waiting for the INSERT CD message to appear.

Press and
hold this button until you hear a beep. The system will now begin ejecting all CDs.
Remove the ejected CD so the next CD has room to eject.
(Pause): Touch this button to pause CD play. Touch it
again to resume play or touch the play button.
RANDOM ALL: Touch this button to hear the tracks on all of the
discs in the CD changer in random, rather than sequential, order. Press the TUNE/SEEK
hard key while RANDOM ALL is on to randomly seek within that disc. Touch RANDOM ALL
again to turn off random mode.

of first track on each disc. Touch this button again to stop scanning. The CD will
mute while scanning.
