Compact Disc

 

The AXC25/35 has been designed to only play:

  • Compact discs
  • Recordable CDs (CD-R)
  • Re-writable CDs (CD-RW) bearing the identification logo shown above.

Note: The CD-R/CD-RW discs should contain properly recorded TOC (Table of Contents) information so that they can be played back.

The AXC25/35 can only play the discs recorded in the CDDA format designed for music reproduction or those containing MP3 or WMA files. Do not attempt to play a disc on this unit containing other data, such as a data CD-ROM for PCs.

 

LOADING AND UNLOADING DISCS

1. Using the front panel or remote control, press the ‘Open/Close’ button to open the disc tray.

2. Once the disc tray has fully opened, carefully place a disc into the tray with the label side facing upwards.

3. Close the disc tray by pressing the ‘Open/Close’ button again. When the tray has fully closed the AXC25/35 will read the disc and display the content information.

4. The disc tray can be opened at any time during playback using either the front panel ‘Open/Close’ button, or the one located on the remote control. Only remove an inserted disc after the disc tray has fully opened.

 

Important Information:

  • Do not put anything except for a compact disc into the disc tray as this can damage the mechanism.
  • Do not force the tray by hand during opening and closing operations.
  • To avoid dirt and dust entering the mechanism, keep the disc tray closed when not in use.
  • If the compact disc that you are attempting to load is badly scratched or dirty, the player may be unable to read or play it.
  • Never attempt to load multiple discs into the disc tray at any time.
