2. Power WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

The voltage of the available pow er supply dif f ers according to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., AC 120 V, 60 Hz) written on the rear panel.

3. Do not touch this unit with wet hands

Do not handle this unit or power cord when your hands are wet or damp. If water or any other liquid enters the case, take this unit to an authorized service center for inspection.

4. Location of this unit

Place this unit in a well-ventilated location. Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of this unit especially when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is blocked, this unit may overheat and malfunction.

Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or heating units as this unit’s internal temperature may rise and shorten the life of the pickup.

Avoid damp and dusty places and places directly affected by vibrations from the speak ers. In particular , av oid placing the unit on or above one of the speakers.

Be sure this unit is placed in a horizontal position. Never place it on its side or on a slanted surface as it may malfunction.

Do not place near tuners or TV sets. If placed next to a TV or tuner, it may cause reception interference resulting in some noise in the TV or tuner output.

5. Care

From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dir t, dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water , wring it out dry , and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.

Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage the f inish or remove the panel lettering.

6. Points to remember

If this unit is brought from a cold environment to a war m one or is in a cold room that is quickly heated, condensation may form on the pickup, preventing proper operation. In this case, remove the disc and leave the power ON for about one hour to remove the condensation.

When transporting this unit, be careful not to bump it. Always close the disc tray when not loading or unloading

discs to protect delicate internal parts from dust.

Memory Preservation

This unit does not require memory preservation batteries. A built-in memory power back-up system pr eserves the contents of memory during power failures and even when the Power button is set to Off. The Po w er button must be set to On in order to char ge the back-up system. The memory preser vation period after the unit has been turned off v aries depending on climate and placement of the unit. On average, memory contents are protected over a period of a few weeks after the time the unit has been turned off. This period is shorter when the unit is exposed to a very humid climate.

Inserting the remote controller batteries

1. Remove the battery compartment cover b y opening it as shown in the illustration.

2. Insert two AA (R6- or UM-3)-size batteries into the battery compartment. Carefully follow the polarity diagram (positive (+) and negativ e (–) symbols) inside the battery compartment.

3. After batteries are installed and seated correctly, replace the compartment cover.

Notes:

• Do not mix new batteries with old batter ies or differ-

ent kinds of batteries.

• To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote

controller is not to be used for a long time.

•

Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from corrosion. If the remote contr oller doesn’t operate smoothly , replace both the batteries at the same time.

• The life of the batteries supplied is a bout six months

but this will vary depending on usage.

Using the remote controller

Point the remote controller toward the remote control sensor.

Notes:

• Place the unit away from strong light such as direct

sunlight or inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation of the remote controller.

• Using another remote controller of the same type in

the same room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays may cause oper ational interference.

• Do not put any object such as a book on the remote

controller. The buttons of the remote controller may be pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.

• Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored

glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prev ent proper remote controller operation.

• If there is any obstacle between the remote controller

and the remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.

Connecting to an audio system

Tw o types of output jac ks are located on the rear panel. Use the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack if you are connecting the unit to audio equipment that supports a digital connection.

ANALOG OUTPUT jacks:

These are the most commonly used jacks. Connect these jacks to the amplifier’s CD input jacks using the supplied audio connection cable.

DIGITAL OUTPUT (optical) jack:

For digital recording, connect this jack to the digital input jack of a Mini Disc recorder, a DAT deck, or other digital equipment. If your amplifier has a digital input jack, connecting the DIGITAL OUTPUT jack to it will pr oduce a much clearer and more dynamic sound.

• Terminal protection cap is attached to the digital jack.

Remove the cap when connecting the unit to other digital equipment. When you are not using the digital output jack, replace the cap.

• Refer to the amplifier’s instruction manual for connec-

tions.

Connections for remote control ( )

When connecting Integra/Onkyo products, it is necessary to attach the troller of the main component to control the entire system.

1. To use this CD changer with an amplifier (or receiver), cassette tape deck, and tuner that include the a ppropriate

cable, plugged into the REMOTE CONTROL jacks.

2. As the exact connection sequence of the unimportant, you can connect from the amplifier (or receiver) to either the tuner, cassette tape deck, or compact disc changer.

3. To operate correctly, the remote controller must point toward the remote control sensor of the amplifier (or receiver).
