The arising condensation of water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it has reached room temperature.
Operating Determinations:
•When installing this CD player, please make sure that the device is not exposed or will not be exposed to extreme heat, moisture or dust!
•Do not operate the CD player in extremely hot (more than 30°/100°F) or extremely cold (less than 5°C/40°F) surroundings.
•Keep the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heaters.
•Operate the CD player only after becoming familiar with its' functions. Do not permit operation by persons not qualified for operating the unit. Most damages are the result of unprofessional opera-
tion.

(a)FADER “Q” START CONTROL: This feature is used in conjunction with most American Audio® and American DJ® audio mixers that also feature “Fader Q Start” control. For best results use this feature with two (2) CDI-300™ players. Connect your CDI-300’s as described in the set-up section of this manual. After set up is completed load your players. By moving the mixer’s crossfader from left to right you can start and pause your CDI-300™ playback functions. For Example, when using two (2) CDI-300™ players and a Fader “Q” Start mixer, if your mixer’s cross fader is all the way to the left (player one is playing, player two is in cue or pause mode), and you move the fader at least 20% to the right, player two (2) will begin to play and player one (1) will return to cue mode. When the cross fader is to the right, and you move it 20% to the left, player one (1) will begin to play and player two (2) will return to its’ cue point. You can create great effects similar to scratching with this feature. After storing cue points on each side of the CD player, different songs or samples may quickly be recalled by moving the mixer crossfader back and forth. New cue points can be easily selected on the CDI-300™ player (see setting cue points page 16). “Q” Start control is easy to use and mastering this feature will help you create amazing effects with your music. Note: For proper “Q” Start operation be sure your mixers “Hamster” setting are set to 1/2 (Normal Setting).
(b)FLIP-FLOP: This feature is used in conjunction with American Audio® mixers that also feature Fader “Q” Start. For FLIP-FLOP results you must use two (2) CDI-300™ players. Connect your CDI-300’s as described in the set-up section of this manual. This feature will start the next player once one (1) player has ended. For example, if player one (1) is playing a disc and it ends, player two (2) will instantly begin to play. You may set FLIP-FLOP to play track to track or disc to disc. For more information on this feature, see FLIP-FLOP™ on page 25.
(c)MEMORY BACKUP: The CDI-300™ has a five (5) year memory back-up, that will save your setting in case the power supply is accidentally disconnected. CDI-300™ will remember your last setting even if you disconnect your
main power. The CDI-300™ will store your cue points and samples in memory if you accidentally eject a disc or shut off the power. See memory on page 21.
(d)PROGRAMMABLE CUE POINTS: The CDI-300™ has four BANK BUTTONS (4). 127 Cue points can be stored in each of the BANK BUTTONS (4), for a total of 381. These cue points can be stored into the unit's internal memory and may be recalled at any time. See setting "Cue Points" on page 16
(e)FLASH START FUNCTION: This feature is used in conjunction with most American Audio® and American DJ® audio mixers that also feature “Fader Q Start” control. This function work similar to the Fader "Q" Start Control described above. In this case the crossfader is used to start and stop any sample that is stored in the players memory.
(f)SLEEP MODE: The CDI-300's laser and pick-up assembly will power down after 15 minutes of inactivity (when in pause or cue mode). This will lengthen the life of your motor drive and laser. To initialize the player, just press the cue or play buttons.

A. TOP UNIT CONTROLS (FIGURE 3)
1.PITCH PERCENTAGE SELECTOR - Press this button to select pitch range percentages of 4%, 8%, 16%, and 100%. See adjusting the PITCH SLIDER'S RANGE on page 28.
2.TEMPO LOCK FUNCTION - This button activates the TEMPO LOCK function. This function allows you to use the PITCH SLIDER to speed up or slow down playback speed without altering the tonal pitch of the track. When this function is not engaged the original tonal pitch of the track will be altered giving you the "chipmunk" effect when a track is played at a high rate of speed, or the "James Earl Jones" effect when a track is slowed to much.
3.BPM/PITCH ON/OFF BUTTON - This button is used to toggle between the PITCH SLIDER (5)
function and AUTO BPM counter. To activate the BPM counter, you must hold the button down for at least 3 seconds. When the button LED is lit the PITCH SLIDER (5) is active. When the button LED is not lit, the PITCH SLIDER (5) is not active. The pitch percentage can be changed between 4%, 8%, 16% and 100%. 4% will allow the least amount of pitch manipulation and 100% will allow the most amount of pitch manipulation.
4.BANK BUTTONS 1-3 - These buttons are used to store either three (3) cue points or three
(3) samples. Each Bank Button can store either a sample or a cue point.
5.PITCH SLIDER - This slider is used to adjust the playback pitch percentage. The slider is a set adjustment and will remain set until the pitch
