BASIC OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Warning: To protect your hearing, set the volume on your receiver or amplifier to its lowest level before you load and play a CD.

Caution: Do not set the volume on your receiver or amplifier too high while playing soft or quiet portions of a music program. Due to the CD changer’s wide dynamic range, the speakers might be damaged if the music program includes a sudden loud passage.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

Many of the CD changer’s buttons also have a corresponding button on the remote control, and you can use either the CD changer or the remote control to control the function.

To use the remote control, point it at the infrared sensor on the front panel and press the control button.

When the remote control’s operating distance reduces or if the remote control stops working, replace the batteries.

Note: The remote operates the CD changer from up to 23 feet away and within 30º of the front of the CD changer.

LOADING CDS IN THE RACK

The multi-disc rack holds 100 CDs. The disc slots are numbered in clockwise order, from 1 to 100, and can hold either 3-inch or 5-inch CDs.

Follow these steps to load up to 100 CDs in the slots.

1.Press POWER to turn on the CD changer. If necessary, repeatedly press 2DISC NUMBER 3 (or 2DISC 3 on the remote) so the slot number you want appears on the display.

Note: Always handle CDs by their edges. Fingerprints and scratches on a CD’s surface can prevent the laser beam from correctly reading the digital information. For more information, see “CD Care Tips” on Page 15.

3.Hold the CD vertically and insert it into the CD slot, label side to the left.

.

4.To load more CDs, repeatedly press2DISC NUMBER 3 (or 2DISC 3 on the remote) so the desired rack number appears on the display. Then repeat Step 3.

5.When you finish loading the desired CDs, press OPEN/ CLOSE to close the rack cover.

To remove a CD, select the slot number of the disc you want to remove, then press UNLOAD. The rack rotates the selected disc slot to the front. When the rack cover opens, remove the selected CD. Press OPEN/CLOSE to close the rack cover.

Cautions:

Do not try to manually open the rack cover; only use

OPEN/CLOSE.

Do not load anything other than 5-inch or 3-inch CDs into the slots. This could damage the CD changer.

Do not use an adapter for 3-inch CDs. Also, avoid placing 3-inch CDs between 5-inch CDs as this makes it hard to remove the 3-inch CDs.

The CD changer does not play with the rack cover open.

Notes:

You can use OPEN/CLOSE to open the rack cover and remove the disc if the disc to remove is already at the front of the rack. The display shows HOLD while the rack cover is open.

You can open the rack cover even while a disc is playing. Hold down OPEN/CLOSE until the display shows OPEN. The rack cover opens and the display shows HOLD. In this case, the rack does not rotate and you cannot use UNLOAD, SINGLE PLAY/ACCESS, or 2DISC NUMBER 3.
