By pressing this button again, the CD-77 will commence warm-up to prepare for operation.
Under STANDBY mode, power to CD-77’s digital circuit is kept active in order to provide the optimum per- formance for the next listening session. However, power to the valves will be switched off to preserve valve life.
3. Loading (Autoplay)
To play a compact disc, slide back the top-loading CD door. Remove the CD puck and place the compact disc in the large circular recess in the well, with its transparent playing surface facing down. The label side of the compact disc MUST face UP.
Replace the CD puck in the center and close the lid. Make sure the CD puck is correctly centered and positively engaged.
Close the CD door so that the CD-77 is able to scan the compact disc’s TOC (Table of Contents) and display the total number of tracks and playing time.
