Before Use

Read this before operation

< As the unit may become warm during operation,

always leave sufficient space around the unit for
ventilation.

< The voltage supplied to the unit should match the

voltage as printed on the rear panel. If you are in
any doubt regarding this matter, consult an
electrician.

< Choose the installation location of your unit

carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close
to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to
vibrations and excessive dust, heat, cold or
moisture.

< Do not place the unit on any high heat-producing

units like your amplifier/receiver.

< Do not open the cabinet as this might result in

damage to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a
foreign object should get into the set, contact your
dealer or service agency.

< When removing the power plug from the wall

outlet, always pull directly on the plug, never yank
the cord.

< To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it, and

do not forget to close the disc tray when not using
the CD player.

< Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical

solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a
clean, dry cloth.

< Keep this manual in a safe place for future

reference.

DO NOT MOVE THE UNIT DURING PLAYBACK

During playback, the disc rotates at high speed. Do
NOT lift or move the unit during playback. Doing so
may damage the disc.

WHEN MOVING THIS UNIT

When changing places of installation or packing the
unit for moving, be sure to remove the disc. Then,
press the power switch to turn the power off, and
disconnect the power cord. Moving this unit with
the disc loaded may result in damage to this unit.

Beware of condensation

When the unit (or a disc) is moved from a cold to a
warm place, or used after a sudden temperature
change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in
the air could condense on the internal mechanism,
making correct operation impossible. To prevent
this, or if this occurs, leave the unit for one or two
hours with the power turned on. The unit will
stabilize at the temperature of its surroundings.

Maintenance

If the surface of the unit gets dirty, wipe with a soft
cloth or use diluted mild soap liquid. Be sure to
remove any excess completely. Do not use thinner,
benzine or alcohol as they may damage the surface
of the unit.

< Never use such chemicals as record sprays,

antistatic sprays or fluid, benzine or thinner to clean

the discs. Such chemicals will do irreparable

damage to the disc’s plastic surface.

< Discs should be returned to their cases after use to

avoid dust and scratches that could cause the laser

pickup to “skip.”

< Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or high

humidity and temperature for extended periods.

Long exposure to high temperatures will warp the

disc.

< CD-R discs are more sensitive to the effects of heat

and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. It is

important that they are not stored in a location

where direct sunlight will fall on them, and which is

away from sources of heat such as radiators or

heat-generating electrical devices.

< Printable CD-R discs aren’t recommended, as the

label side might be sticky and damage the unit.

< Do not stick papers or protective sheets on the

discs and do not use any protective coating spray.

< Use a soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the

information on the label side. Never use a ball-point

or hard-tipped pen, as this may cause damage to

the recorded side.

< Never use a stabilizer. Using commercially available

CD stabilizers with this unit will damage the

mechanisms and cause them to malfunction.

< Do not use irregular shape CDs (octagonal, heart-

shape, etc.). CDs of this sort can damage the unit.

Discs which can be played on this unit:

• Conventional audio CDs bearing the CD-DA logo
on the label:

?

• Properly finalized CD-R discs

Note:

< Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the

condition of the recording, some CD-R discs may
not be playable.

< CD-RW discs cannot be played on this unit.
< Copy-protected discs and other discs which do not

conform to the CD standard may not play back
correctly in this player.
If you use such discs in this unit, TEAC Corporation
and its subsidiaries cannot be responsible for any
consequences or guarantee the quality of
reproduction. If you experience problems with such
non-standard discs, you should contact the
producers of the disc.

< Always place the disc on the disc tray with the label

side uppermost. (Compact discs can be played or
recorded only on one side.)

< To remove a disc from its storage case, press down

on the center of the case and lift the disc out,
holding it carefully by the edges.

How to remove the disc

How to hold the disc

< Should the disc become dirty, wipe the surface

radially with a soft, dry cloth.

< If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling

of a CD-R disc, read the precautions supplied with
the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.

The provided Remote Control Unit allows the unit to
be operated from a distance.
When operating the remote control unit, point it
towards the REMOTE SENSOR on the front panel of
the unit.

< Even if the remote control unit is operated within

the effective range, remote control operation may
be impossible if there are any obstacles between
the unit and the remote control.

< If the remote control unit is operated near other

appliances which generate infrared rays, or if other
remote control devices using infrared rays are used
near the unit, it may operate incorrectly.
Conversely, the other appliances may operate
incorrectly.

Battery Installation

Remove the battery compartment cover.

Insert two “AAA“ (R03, SUM-4) dry batteries.
Make sure that the batteries are inserted with their
positive “+“ and negative “_“ poles positioned
correctly.

Close the cover.

Battery Replacement

If the distance required between the remote control
unit and main unit decreases, the batteries are
exhausted. In this case replace the batteries with new
ones.

Precautions concerning batteries

< Be sure to insert the batteries with correct positive

“+“ and negative “_“ polarities.

< Use batteries of the same type. Never use different

types of batteries together.

< Rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries can

be used. Refer to the precautions on their labels.

< When the remote control unit is not to be used for

a long time (more than a month), remove the
batteries from the remote control unit to prevent
them from leaking. If they leak, wipe away the
liquid inside the battery compartment and replace
the batteries with new ones.

< Do not heat or disassemble batteries and never

dispose of old batteries by throwing them in a fire.
