compression ratio Mercury Villager 1998 Owner's Manuals

NOTE: In some instances, the radio may have CD changer
controls, even if there is no CD changer.
The digital display on the radio shows the disc and track
number. Indicators for compression on (ªCOMPº) and shuffle on
(ªSHUFFLEº) are also in the display. These features are
described in more detail later in this chapter.
Once a magazine is inserted, operation of the CD changer will
override that of the cassette player or radio.
NOTE: The volume, bass, treble, balance, and fader controls on
the radio are also used with the CD changer.
Slide the CD door all the way to the right. Insert the magazine
into the magazine opening. If a magazine is already loaded,
pressing ªCDº will start CD play. For the first three seconds
after a disc starts playing, the radio display shows the disc number
(CD-01 for disc 1). From seconds four through six, the track
number is shown (TR-02 for track 2). For the remainder of the
track, the display shows the disc and track number (01-02 for disc
1, track 2).
When the disc reaches the end, the disc changer automatically
goes to the beginning of the next disc and resumes playing.
How to eject the CD magazine
Press the eject button on the lower left of the CD changer to eject
the magazine whether or not the audio system is on.
NOTE: If the ignition key is turned OFF during play and then
is set to the ON or ACCESSORY position, the CD
changer will resume playing in the mode (radio/tape/CD)
it was in when ignition was turned off.

Special Features of Your CD Changer
Compression
The compression feature will bring soft and loud passages closer
together for a more consistent listening level.
To turn the compression on, press the ªCOMPº button. When on,
the compression indicator (ªCº) will appear in the display.
Press the button again to turn off.
Shuffle
The shuffle feature will randomly select a track from the disc
currently being played.
Press the ªSHUFFLEº button to turn on. Press it again to turn
off. When the shuffle mode is activated, the display will show
ªSHFº for two seconds. When a new track is selected by the
shuffle feature, ªSHFº will again be displayed for two seconds.
Shuffle and Scan
Both the shuffle and scan features can be activated
simultaneously. In this mode, the player will randomly pick a
selection and play the first ten seconds. This process is continued
until either the ªSCANº button or ªSHUFFLEº button is
pressed a second time.
How to Eject the Disc
