CDR1000—Owner’s Manual

Using the Remote Controller

The CDR1000’s wireless, infrared remote controller can be used to control virtually all
playback and recording functions remotely. In addition to duplicating most of the but-
tons found on the CDR1000 front panel, the remote controller features a number key-
pad for direct track selection. See “Selecting Tracks Directly” on page 23 for more
information.
The remote controller does not feature the following front-panel buttons: [UV22],
[UTILITY], [ERASE], and [FINALIZE].

Installing the Remote Controller’s Batteries

The remote controller uses two size AA, R6, UM-3 batteries, and two new batteries are
supplied with the CDR1000. No special tools are required for installation.
1Remove the battery compartment cover.
2Install the supplied batteries as indicated inside the battery compartment,
paying special attention to the polarity (+ to +, to ).
3Replace the battery compartment cover.
If the remote controller doesn’t work, make sure that the batteries are installed cor-
rectly. If it still doesn’t work, make sure that the Utility Remote parameter is set to ON.
See “Disabling the Remote Controller” on page 50 for more information.
If the remote controller fails to work after several months, the batteries may need
replacing. Always replace both batteries at the same time, with the specified size.
If the remote controller is not to be used for a long period, for example, more than one
month, remove the batteries to prevent damage due to battery leakage.
