IMPORTANT
(CANADIAN MODEL ONLY)
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus setout in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communication.

FEATURES

(1) HDCD®(High Definition Compatible Digital) decoder
(DCM-380 only)
HDCD is an encoding/decoding technology that greatly reduces the distortion occurring at the time of digital recording while maintaining compatibility with the conventional CD format. HDCD allows 20-bit data to be converted into the 16-bit data of current CDs with no loss in sound quality. The use of this HDCD decoder makes it possible to achieve the high resolution and low distortion characteristic of HDCD when playing HDCD-compatible discs, and DENON’s digital technology optimizes the high sound quality possibilities of HDCD technology. Furthermore, normal CDs and HDCD-compatible CDs are automatically identified, and the optimum digital signal processing for that type of disc used.
(2) High performance digital filter
The DCM-380/280 uses high precision 8-times oversampling digital filters.
(3) Simple Playback of 8cm CD Singles
8cm CD singles can be played without using an adaptor.
(4) Programming of up to 32 tracks
All of the tracks on a CD can be programmed to play in any order. Programming in units of discs (all tracks on a disc) is also possible.
(5) Newly developed carousel-type changer mechanism
included
This mechanism can house five discs, and while one disc is playing the remaining four discs can be changed. In addition, the carousel can be rotated either clockwise or counterclockwise, so searching between discs is fast.
(6) Wireless Remote Control Accessory
In addition to general operations such as Play, Stop and Pause, this remote control unit enables direct selection, direct programming, and other functions. Use of the remote control unit adds greatly to the operating ease of the DCM-380/280, enhancing its outstanding features.
(7) CD-RW Playback Capability
The DCM-380/280 can play finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs.
(8) MP3 Playback

Condensation
2 Condensation
Condensation can be seen as water droplets that have formed on the windows of a heated room in winter.
2 Conditions for the Formation of Condensation
In winter, when the unit is brought from outdoors to a warm indoor location, or when the room temperature is suddenly raised by a heater, condensation will form on the operating parts within the unit and normal operation will no longer be possible. Condensation can also form in summer when the breeze from an air conditioner strikes the unit directly. Should this occur, change the setup location of the unit.
2 Measures to Take After Condensation Forms
• If condensation has formed, switch on the power and leave the unit for a while. Although the time will differ according to the surrounding conditions, the unit should be usable in 1 to 2 hours.
• Should condensation form on the disc, wipe the disc clean.

• Hold the disc by the edges and place it on the disc tray. (Do not touch the signal surface, i.e., the glossy side.)
• Set the disc properly in the tray according to its size. Set 8 cm discs in the center hole. Set 12 cm discs in the outer hole.
• When the drawer is opened during the stop mode, discs can be loaded in the 3 disc trays. If the DISC SKIP button is pressed, the carousel turns and a disc can be loaded in the another disc tray. When the drawer is opened during the play mode, it is possible to load and unload discs in all of the disc trays other than the one whose disc is currently playing. 3 discs can be replaced and press the DISC SKIP button to switch the other disc tray that can be replaced.
• Press the 5 OPEN/CLOSE button to close the drawer.
Caution:
• The player will not operate properly and the disc may even be damaged if it is not set correctly.
• If your finger should get caught in the drawer when it closes, press the 5 OPEN/CLOSE button.
• Do not place any foreign objects on the disc tray, and do not place more than one disc on the tray at a time. Otherwise malfunction may occur.
• Do not push in the disc tray manually when the power is off as this may cause malfunction and damage the CD player.
• Do not touch the carousel while it is turning. Also, do not turn the carousel by hand when it is stopped. Doing so could damage it.
• Do not insert disc where indicated by arrow. This could damage the internal mechanism in the unit.
