IMPORTANT NOTE:
Since the CDX-402 is a dual CD player, most of the functions and
controls are duplicated on both sides of the CD player. To eliminate
confusion and to make the drawings easier to understand, we will only
number the left side functions and controls.
LINE VOLTAGE SELECTION:
Model CDX-402 is a dual voltage unit. It will operate at 115 or 230 volts.
To set the proper voltage, follow these steps:
1. Place the head of a screwdriver in the center of the VOLTAGE
SELECTOR SWITCH (1) found on the rear panel.
DISC TRAY: The DISC TRAY (7) is where the CD is held during loading,
unloading and playback. Pressing the OPEN/CLOSE (8) button, will open
or close the tray. The DISC TRAY (7) holds both 12 cm and 8 cm CDs.
Please note, if the CDX-402 is in play mode, the tray will not open.
NOTE: DO NOT FORCE THE DISC TRAY TO CLOSE, EXCESSIVE FORCE WILL DAMAGE THE CD-
MECHANISM, USE THE OPEN/CLOSE (8) BUTTONS ONLY.
OPEN/CLOSE BUTTON: Press OPEN/CLOSE (8) to load or remove a
CD from the DISC TRAY.
DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (9) shows the track number, pitch value, single-
auto cue, continue (for continuous play), and 3 different time displays.
These time displays are time elapsed on the track, time remaining on the
disc and time remaining on the track. Time is measured in minutes,
seconds and frames.
PLAYBACK DISPLAY BAR: The PLAYBACK DISPLAY BAR (10)
displays the elapsed and remaining time for each track. The display
flashes slowly when the track has 15 seconds remaining and pulses
rapidly when playing time is down to 5 seconds.
PLAY/PAUSE : Each press of the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON (11) causes
the operation to change from play to pause or from pause back to play.
CUE: With the unit in the Play mode (PLAY/PAUSE LED is green) and
after the cue point has been programmed, pressing CUE (12) will
cause the CD player to enter the PAUSE mode (green PLAY/PAUSE
LED blinks) at the programmed cue point (the CUE LED glows yellow).
Holding down the cue button changes the function to PREVIEW and
