2. Start-Up

1. Power On/Off

Press the ‘POWER’ switch (R5) at the rear of the CD-77 to switch mains power ON to the CD-77.

To switch the mains power OFF, press again and release. Always WAIT at least 20 seconds before switching on again. This is to enable the OptiMains® circuit to shutdown properly.

The display will light up to indicate the unit is switched on and ready for use. This should take just under 1 minute as the OptiMains® circuit is verifying the incoming mains and the CD processor is warming up.

The display should flash the message:

Optimising Supply Voltage

it will then change to:

Warming Up 45 s

The display will then countdown the remaining warm-up time.

Once the OptiMains®circuitry has completed its initiation process, the CD-77 is ready for operation.
