5. Reset

This function cancels certain or all settings and makes the unit return to default settings.

To access the reset menu switch the unit to standby (power button (1)). Then press and hold the STOP (10)
AND REPAET key (6). While holding that key switch the unit on (power button (1)). The display now will
show the reset menu. Release the buttons.

Press PLAY (12) for a complete reset, PAUSE (11) to reset only the names or STOP (10) to exit without
resetting.

6. Remote control

The CD8 is delivered together with the remote control transmitter RC3. The available functions depend on
the IR control mode setting (see 4.2).

Player only

The buttons STOP, PLAY, SKIP on the remote control are used to control the CD drive. PLAY switches
between play and pause if pressed several times. STOP ejects the disc if pressed twice. SKIP if pressed for
more than one second activates fast forward / rewind (only while disc is playing). If pressed shortly the player
will skip to the next / previous title.

All functions

The buttons STOP, PLAY, SKIP on the remote control are used to control the CD drive as described above.
Additionally the output volume can be set using the VOLUME buttons on the RC3, input is selected using
INPUT keys. CD is selected using the PLAY key.

If the unit doesn’t react or reacts only over short distances, the batteries of the RC3 must be changed:

Bottom view RC3

Unscrew the 6 marked screws (CAUTION, do NOT unscrew the 2 unmarked screws in the middle). Take the
bottom plate with the mounted pcb out. Remove the worn batteries and replace them with two new batteries
(type CR2032, 3V Lithium cells). Make sure that polarity is correct (the "+" sign must be on top). Insert the
bottom plate and screw it tight.

NOTE:

 For best function point with the RC3 directly to the front panel of your hi-fi set.

7. Cleaning

Use a soft cloth and normal glass cleansing fluid.

CAUTION: Make sure that no fluid comes into the unit. Do not use scouring cleaners. They may
damage the surface.
