A NOTE ON INSTALLATION
Install the Compact Disc player on a level, vibration-
free surface. (Severe vibration, or operation in a
tilted position, may cause the player to mis-track.)
The player may be stacked with other stereo
components, as long as there is adequate
ventilation around it.
If the player is placed in close proximity to a radio
tuner (AM or FM), a VCR, or a television set, the
operation of its digital circuits may produce static
that would interfere with reception of weak
broadcast signals. If this occurs, move the CD
player away from other devices or switch it off when
viewing or listening to broadcasts.
PLAYING COMPACT DISCS
A SIMPLE APPROACH
1. Connect a stereo cable from the L (left) and R
(right) Line Output jacks to the corresponding CD
inputs on your amplifier.
2. Plug in the AC power cord.
3. Press the green POWER button to turn on the
player.
4. Press OPEN to open the disc drawer.
5. Place a CD, label side up, in the tray’s circular
recess. Be certain that the disc is centered within
the recess.
6. Press PLAY/PAUSE. The drawer closes
automatically, and the disc begins to play.
7. At any time you may press SKIP or to
select different tracks on the disc.
8. Press PLAY/PAUSE if you want to stop play
temporarily while keeping the pickup at its
current position on the disc. Press PLAY/PAUSE
again when you want to resume playback. Press
STOP if you want to end play and re-set the
pickup to the beginning of the disc.
REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS (fig.1)
1. LINE OUTPUT.
Connect a cable from these jacks to your amplifier.
Plug one end of a stereo audio cable into the L
(upper) and R (lower) output jacks. Connect the
other end of the cable to your stereo amplifier’s CD
input, or to any other ‘line-level’ input jacks (such as
the AUXiliary inputs). Do NOT connect this cable to
the amplifier’s PHONO input jacks.
2. AC LINE CORD.
Connect this power cord to an AC mains wall outlet
or to an AC convenience outlet at the rear of your
amplifier.
FRONT PANEL CONTROLS (fig.2)
1. POWER ON/OFF.
Press this green button to switch on the power to
the disc player. Press again and release to switch
the power off.
2. DISC DRAWER.
To play a disc, press the OPEN button to open the
disc drawer. Place the CD within the large circular
recess in the drawer, with its transparent playing
surface facing down. The label must face UP.
CD-3 discs (3-inch CD ‘singles’) can be played
without the aid of an adapter. Place the disc in the
drawer, centered in the smaller circular recess, with
its label facing UP.
NOTE: This player was not designed to
accommodate a ‘damping disc’ placed on a CD,
nor two CDs stacked together. It plays audio CDs,
but not discs identified as CD-V, DVD, CD-I, CD-
ROM, or PHOTO CD.
3. DISPLAY.
The display provides information about playback
status and about the laser pickup’s location on the
disc. The displayed track/time information is
obtained by reading inaudible ‘sub-codes’ in the
disc.
Track number Each disc is segmented into
numbered tracks when the recording is made;
typically each numbered track will correspond to a
different song, symphonic movement, etc. These
track numbers are identified on the CD package
and are encoded in the disc by its manufacturer.
In some CDs, at the manufacturer’s option, tracks
may be sub-divided into sections identified by Index
numbers. This player does not display Index
numbers.
Time Normally this display shows the time elapsed
since the beginning of the current track. Using the
TIME button you can switch the display to show the
playing time remaining to the end of the disc.
When you load a different disc and use the OPEN
button to close the disc drawer, the display shows
the number of tracks and the total playing time of all
the tracks on the disc.
Status A right-pointing arrowhead , located
near the left edge of the time display, glows during
PLAY. Two vertical bars
indicate that the player
is in PAUSE. In STOP mode the display reverts to
showing the number of tracks and total playing time
of the disc.
‘no disc’ glows in the display when no disc is
present or when you load a disc that cannot be
read (because it is dirty or is upside-down).
REPEAT ONE glows in the upper-left corner during
repeat-play of a single track. REPEAT ALL glows
during repeat-play of the entire program or disc.
REMAIN glows in the top centre area of the display
if you have pressed the TIME button to show the
remaining time in the track, disc.
Remote receiver. An infrared sensor, located the
right-hand portion of the display window, receives
commands from the remote control. There must be
a clear line-of-sight path from the remote control to
