Playing Compact Discs

IMPORTANT: This CD player can play normal CDs plus CD-R (CD Recordable) and CD-RW (CD ReWritable) discs. However the playability of CD-R/RW discs may be affected by the type of software that was used in ‘ripping’ the tracks from the original discs and ‘burning’ the tracks onto the blank media. Playability may also be affected by the quality and condition of the blank media you use for recording. 100% compatibility cannot be guaranteed. This is not an indication of any problems with your player.

Normal Playback

1.) Press the STANDBY (POWER) button to turn the system ‘On’. Press the FUNCTION button on front panel or CD/DISC SKIP button on remote control to select the CD function.

2.) Press the OPEN/CLOSE button to open the CD door. If you have not already done so, remove the 3 “dummy CD” transit protection cards and discard them. You cannot play your own CDs unless these cards are removed.

NOTE: Never open or close the CD door rapidly by hand - doing so will damage the deck mechanism.

In an emergency situation (AC power failure) where you have no option other than to open or close the door by hand, do so very slow and gently.

APPLY ONLY LIGHT PRESSURE - NEVER USE FORCE ON THE DOOR.

3.) Load 1, 2, or 3 of your own CDs into the player with the printed ‘labels’ facing you. Gently press downward on each CD near the center hole to insure that the discs are properly ‘seated’ on the spindles.
