To operate the Fusion as a CD player, switch MASTER SWITCH(9) located on the rear panel,
to ON. You should hear the mute relays click, which ensures the software has loaded. Always
allow at least 10 seconds between switching the master switch, as the program clears. The
display should now be illuminated. The CD Player will now remain in a MUTE state, for 30
seconds until the internal vacuum tubes have reached operating temperature.

POWER

DAC circuitry remains ever-warm. The DAC MODE LED

on the front panel is illuminated.

In this mode external digital sources can be played. Pressing it once again will return the unit
to a CD player or transport. To completely power down the whole unit switch the Master
Switch on the rear panel to the OFF position.

DISPLAY

This function can only be used if a disc is inserted in the tray. Pressing this

button once switches the display OFF. Pressing it once again decreases the luminance of the
vacuum fluorescent display, and pressing it once again restores the display to it's original
brightness. During play if any function key is depressed the display will illuminate for a short
period.

A red indicator is illuminated when the display is OFF.
