GETTING STARTED
UNPACKING AND SETUP
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Packed with your C 515BEE you will nd:
• An audio cable connector
• The CD 7 remote control with 2 (two) AAA batteries
• This owner’s manual
SAVE THE PACKAGING
Please save the box and all of the packaging in which your C 515BEE
arrived. Should you move or otherwise need to transport your C 515BEE,
this is by far the safest container in which to do so. We’ve seen too many
otherwise perfect components damaged in transit for lack of a proper
shipping carton, so please: Save that box!
CHOOSING A LOCATION
Choose a location that is well ventilated (with at least several inches to
both sides and behind), and that will provide a clear line of sight, within
25 feet/8 meters, between the C 515BEE’s front panel and your primary
listening/viewing position. This will ensure reliable infrared remote control
communications. The C 515BEE generates a modest amount of heat, but
nothing that should trouble adjacent components. It is perfectly possible to
stack the C 515BEE on top of other components.
NOTE ON INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT! Install the C 515BEE Compact Disc player on a level, vibrationfree surface. Severe vibration or operation in a tilted position may cause
the player to mis-track. The player may be stacked with other stereo
components, as long as there is adequate ventilation around it. If the
C 515BEE is placed in close proximity to a radio tuner (AM or FM), a VCR or
a television set, the operation of its digital circuits may produce static that
would interfere with reception of weak broadcast signals. If this occurs,
move the C 515BEE away from other devices or switch it o when viewing
or listening to broadcasts.

ENGLISH FRANÇAIS ESPAÑOL ITALIANO DEUTSCH NEDERLANDS SVENSKA РУССКИЙ
USING THE C 515BEE FEATURES
CD-R AND CD-RW AUDIO DISCS
The C 515BEE can play back CD-R or CDRW audio discs that have been
recorded on a computer or CD recorder. The quality of CD-R, CD-RW audio
discs varies widely which may aect playability. Some factors that aect
playability:
• The quality of the disc itself. Generally speaking, CD-R, CD-RW blanks
from well-renowned companies give better results than unbranded
ones.
• The quality of CD-recorder or computer CD re/writer. Some recorders
and writers produce better results than others.
• The CD-R and CD-RW were created with high-speed writing. In general,
the quality of a CD-R or CD-RW is better when produced at a lower
speed against a higher speed on the same recorder or re/writer.
NOTES
• The procedure for programming MP3/WMA les is the same as above
with an exception at step 2 and 3 – the total number of programmed
les and total playback time will not be displayed during programming.
• If you want to select le number “9” in a disc where there are 100 or more
MP3/WMA les, press “0” twice and then “9.”
• Pressing STOP key at any time during the programming procedure will
put to a STOP the sequence and clear all the currently programmed
tracks or les. VFD will revert back to displaying the total number of
tracks and total playback time for audio CD and total number of les for
MP3/WMA.
• Pressing STOP key twice during program playback will result to having
the whole program list deleted.
PLAYING MP3/WMA FILES
The C 515BEE can play MP3/WMA formatted recordings on CD-R or CD-RW
discs. You may mix any of the le types on the disc. Using the CD 7 remote
control, one can select through the MP3/WMA folders and les as well as
start playback through the following steps
1 Load the applicable disc.
2 Press [FOLDER ] to select desired folder. Press [ENTER].
3 Press [FILE ] to select desired le number. You must be at STOP or
playback mode to access both folders.
4 Press [ENTER] to start playback. For each le type being played, the
C 515BEE will display the le type at the VFD and a corresponding icon
at the VFD. Information about the Song Title, Album and Artist name, if
available, will scroll through the VFD during playback.
NOTES
• The le number is recognized per disc, not per folder – that is, the
number assigned to each le corresponds to their sequence in the disc.
• If you want to select le number “9” in a disc where there are 100 or more
MP3/WMA les, press “0” twice and then “9.”
PROGRAMMING
The program function enables you to store your favorite tracks from any
disc in the player memory. When programming a sequence of tracks, the
C 515BEE must be in STOP mode. Using the CD 7 remote control, enter your
desired program sequence through the following steps
1 Press [PROGRAM]. The display indicates “P01 T00”. The “00” in the “T00”
keeps on blinking, meaning that the player is awaiting the rst Program
entry.
2 Use the Direct-Entry numeric keypad buttons to enter the rst track
in your planned sequence. Upon entering the track number, the VFD
will briey show the total number and total time of the currently
programmed tracks like “TTL 01 3:25”.
3 The display will revert to show “P02 T00,” indicating that the player is
ready for your second program entry. Upon entering the second track,
the VFD will again briey show the total number and total time of the
currently programmed tracks like “TTL 02 6:45” – “TTL 02” indicates that
there are now a total of two programmed tracks and “6:45” is the total
playback time of both programmed tracks.
4 Repeat steps 2 and 3 to select and store other track numbers in
memory, up to a maximum of 40 entries. If you attempt to program
