The back cover folds out to show photographs of the

front and rear panels of the MCD 7005. Fold it out to
assist you in identifying and locating the controls. The

letters refer to the paragraphs that follow.
The back panel of the MCD 7005 has connectors label-
ed FIXED OUTPUT, VARIABLE OUTPUT, REMOTE, a
port marked DIGITAL OUTPUT and the AC power
cord. The VARIABLE OUTPUT is adjusted by the front
panel VOLUME touchbuttons while the FIXED
OUTPUT is unaffected by these controls.

Use shielded cables to connect the output signal to a

preamplifier or power amplifier. To minimize the
possibility of hum, the shielded cables should be of
parallel construction or loosely twisted together and
located away from the speaker connecting cables and

AC power cords. Be certain to use good quality shield-
ed cables for all interconnections. Your dealer can ad-
vise you on the kind and length of cables that will best
suit your installation.

FIXED OUTPUT

The FIXED OUTPUT jacks are used to feed program
to a stereo preamplifier or other equipment with its
own volume control.

B. VARIABLE OUTPUT

Use the VARIABLE OUTPUT jacks to connect to a

power amplifier or a tape recorder where control of

the volume at the player is desired. There is no dif-
ference in the signal quality at either pair of output

jacks. Both pairs of output jacks may be used

simultaneously.

Connect the audio output of the player to the

"CD", "AUX", or other high level input on the
preamplifier. Do not connect to the "PHONO" in-
put. Connect the Right player output to the right
preamplifier input and the Left player output to the
left preamplifier input.

C. REMOTE

The REMOTE control connector is designed for

use with the Mclntosh multi-area infrared remote
control systems. With these systems, you can, from
a hand-held remote control, operate the disc player
and the entire system from various listening areas.

D. DIGITAL OUTPUT

The digital data stream is available from this port for

use in systems that can accept digital data directly.

E. AC POWER

Plug the AC power cord into a 120 volt 50/60 Hz

receptical. The plug blades are polarized so be cer-

tain the plug is fully inserted in the outlet to prevent

blade exposure.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO

NOT USE THE (POLARIZED) PLUG ON THIS UNIT

WITH AN EXTENSION CORD, RECEPTACLE, OR
OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADES CAN BE

FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.

INSERTING THE BATTERIES IN THE
REMOTE CONTROL

Your Mclntosh Digital Disc Player is complete in-

cluding infrared Remote Control. In your hand you

have the ability to control normal operating functions of
the disc player.

The remote control runs on two AA, 1.5 Volt bat-

teries. Slide open the cover on the back of the remote
control and insert the batteries as shown in the diagram

in the battery compartment, then slide the cover closed
again.

Battery life is normally about one year. Remove the

batteries as soon as they are dead to prevent damage by
possible battery leakage. The batteries should be remov-
ed, as well, should the remote control not be used for a
length of time.
