Switching on and off
During normal use the compact disc player should be left in the
standby state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity, but
ensures that the components operate at maximum efficiency
from the moment you start playing a disc.
If you are not going to use the compact disc player for a period
of several days you should switch the unit completely off, at the
back panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
● Press Open, *, or > (front panel), or select a source on the
remote.
● Switch on any other equipment connected to the compact
disc player which is not part of the Meridian 500 Series.
The display will flash for a few seconds. The compact disc
player is then ready for use.
To insert a disc
● Press Open (front panel) or Function * (remote) to open the
tray.
● Place your disc, label side up, in the tray as shown opposite.
● Press Open (front panel), Function
* (remote), or > to close
the tray.
To switch to standby
● Press Off.
The display will show:

If you have other Meridian 500 Series equipment connected to
the compact disc player, these units will also switch to standby.
If a disc is currently playing, switching to standby will stop the
disc, and the disc can safely be left in the unit.
