CD5si
13 CD5si Introduction and Installation
The CD5si should be installed on a dedicated equipment stand intended for the purpose.
Do not stand the player directly on top of another item of Naim Audio equipment. Care
should be taken to ensure that the player is level.
A transit screw on the underside of the CD5si case should be removed before use and
must be replaced if the unit is to be re-packed and shipped. This transit screw must not
be used in any other Naim product. Do not invert the player once the transit screw is
removed.
CD player control and operation is described in Sections 16, 17 and 18.

15 CD5si In Use
15.1 Disc Loading
To load a compact disc pull open the CD drawer using the
handle on the left hand side of the player. Place the disc
on the platter followed by the magnetic puck. Do not use
a puck from any other Naim CD player. Different Naim CD
players use dissimilar pucks.
15.2 Player Maintenance
It is important for reliable operation of the CD5si to ensure
that the surfaces of the transport platter and the underside
of the puck are free of dust or debris which can prevent
the disc from sitting properly and cause it to slip.
To clean the transport platter, take a piece of Blu-Tack and
lightly apply it to the top surface of the magnetic metal
hub, picking up any material attached to it. Brush the
plastic outer edge lightly with your finger or a soft brush to
ensure that it is dust and particle free. Similarly, clean the
puck with Blu-Tack, to remove debris from its underside.
Do not, under any circumstances, use any solvents or fluids
for the cleaning process.
Note:
RCA phono and DIN output sockets should not be
connected simultaneously.
