Basic Operation

Before operating your CDP, take a minute to become familiar with its controls
and their locations. (See “Front Panel” and “Remote Control.”)

Loading a CD

To load a CD:

1. Enable the CDP’s controls by pressing

standby

if in standby.

2. Press

stop/drawer

to open the drawer.

3. Place a CD into the recess of the drawer, label side up. Handle the

CD by the outer edges and center hole only.

4. Press

stop/drawer

.

Playing a CD

To play all tracks on the CD, press the

play/pause

button. All tracks will play in

order. Play will stop automatically at the end of the CD.

To begin play with a track other than the first track:

1. Before pressing

play/pause

, press

next

until the number of the

desired track shows on the Display. If you pass the track you want
to play, you can “back up” by pressing

prev

. (You may also select

the track directly using the numbered buttons on the Remote Con-
trol.)

2. Press

play/pause

to begin playing that track. The remaining tracks

will play in order. Play will stop automatically at the end of the CD.

Pause

To suspend play while a CD is playing, press

play/pause

. To resume play at the

same point, press

pause

for about two minutes, the transport will stop spinning automati-

cally and the laser will turn off (thereby enhancing the longevity of both). Press-

pressed, after a short delay to find the correct starting point.

Random Play

Using the Remote Control, you may have the CDP play tracks totally at random.
To do this, press the

rndm

key, then press

play

. The random LED will illuminate

to indicate the

random play

mode. To cancel

random play

, press

rndm

a second

time, or

stop

Navigating the Disc

You may skip to another track any time while a CD is playing. To move to an-
other track, press

next

(to go forward) or

prev

(to go backward) until the number

of the track you want to play shows on the Display. (You may also select the track
using the numbered buttons on the Remote Control.) Play will resume as soon as
the pickup reaches that track.

You may search for a particular passage on the CD using

fast forward

and

rewind,

by pressing and holding the

next

and

prev

buttons (respectively). Use the

reduced-volume audible scan available during these modes to search the CD un-
til the laser pickup reaches the passage you want to hear.
