OPERATION

USING THE C 545BEE – CD 8 REMOTE CONTROL

ENGLISH

FRANÇAIS

A wireless remote control is provided with your compact disc player, enabling you to operate playback functions from the comfort of your chair or from virtually anywhere in the room. For reliable operation there should be a clear line-of-sight path from the remote control to the front of the CD player. If the player does not respond to remote commands, it may be that this line-of-sight path is obstructed by clothing, paper or furnishings.

Most of the buttons on the remote control handset have the same effect as the corresponding buttons on the front panel of the player. In addition, the handset is equipped with some extra buttons like the following function keys.

NUMERIC KEY PAD

Using the direct-entry numeric keypad (0 to 9) causes the C 545BEE to jump directly to the beginning of a numbered track and commence play. Thus, to play Track 5, simply press “5”. To play Track 20, press “2” and “0”.

DIMMER

Toggle to reduce, turn off and restore VFD brightness.

PROGRAM AND DELETE

Use [PROG] button to start, review, edit or exit programming mode. In combination with [PROG] button, the [CLEAR] button allows the deletion of a programmed track during program review or edit sequence. Refer also to the item about “PROGRAMMING” at the “USING THE C 545BEE – FEATURES” section of the “OPERATION” page.

FILTER

The [FILTER] button is used for selecting the bandwidth of the audio low pass filter for the CD, MP3 and WMA media being played. The options are NORMAL Bandwidth and SLOW Bandwidth. For some recordings the SLOW Bandwidth may provide a wide frequency range and spatial feeling. Toggle

CD 8's [FILTER] button to select “NORMAL” or “SLOW” mode. “NORMAL FILTER” or “SLOW FILTER” will be correspondingly shown in the VFD.
