Using This Manual

This manual is for the PDR–509 CD Recorder. It is split into two sections: the first shows how to set up the CD recorder; the second takes you through each stage of operation.

Set Up

This section, which starts here, shows you how to get your new CD recorder up and running with the rest of your stereo system, including hints and precautions on installation and connecting it to your amplifier and other components. If this is the first time you’ve used recordable CDs, we recommend reading the About CD–R and CD–RW Discs section starting on page 8 before moving onto the second section of the manual.

Operation

In this section, starting on page 12, you’ll learn how to use every feature of the PDR–509, including basic playback and recording using both digital and analog connections, advanced recording features, such as recording fades and creating pauses between tracks, and special CD–RWonly operations.

Finally, the Additional Information section, starting on page 36, provides reference information on display messages you might encounter during use, a troubleshooting section, and technical specifications.

Putting the Batteries in the Remote Control

●Turn over the remote control, then press and slide the battery compartment cover off.

●Put in the batteries supplied, taking care to match the plus and minus ends of each battery with the markings inside the compartment.

●Slide the cover back on, and your remote is ready for use.

CAUTION!

Incorrect use of batteries can result in hazards such as leakage and bursting. Please observe the following:

❖Don’t mix new and old batteries together

❖Don’t use different kinds of battery together—although they may look similar, different batteries may have different voltages.

❖Make sure that the plus and minus ends of each battery match the indications in the battery compart- ment.

❖Remove batteries from equipment that isn’t going to be used for a month or more.
