Default c5 clock does a countdown

I never noticed this before, but after setting my clock for the daylight saving time. I noticed when I turn on the radio and play a cd the cumber of the song on the cd will show up. When it switches back to the clock in the reading it starts at a higher time and does a countdown to the right time. For example if its 1 o'clock it may go to 3:10 and go back till it stops at 1 o'clock. It never is the same for the countdown. I never noticed this happening before. It always goes to the right time though.

This is a joke, right? You're seeing the "Time Remaining" for the current CD track you are listening to. Eventually it just switches back to the clock view.

maybe he does have a problem because I have the stock cd player in an 01 coupe and I can't get mine to show a "time remaining" countdown on a track, mine will only show a time elapsed, also the manual says nothing about a time remaining display.

Just depends on which radio you have. Mine has the countdown timer - also stock

I guess the "there is no such thing as a stupid question" doesn't apply to this forum
