ENGLISH INSTALLATION 9 Operation Loading and Unloading Discs To load a disc, first turn the unit on (if not so already) by pressing the Power Switch 2 on the front panel or the Power On button 1 on the remote, then press the Open/Close button 3 F taking care to make certain that the space in front of the drawer is not obstructed. When the unit is turned off (to Standby), pressing the Play button 4 9 on the front or on the remote will automatically turn on the CD player and start playback. Also, pressing the Open/Close button from Standby switches on the player directly and opens the drawer. When an 8cm disc is played, it should be carefully centered within the smaller ridges inside the cassette drawer. Disc Handling Notes When loading or unloading discs, it is best to hold them by the edges. While Compact Discs are very reliable, rough handling may damage them. Avoid scratching the bottom (non-printed) side of discs, or any handling which will leave fingerprints. To avoid damage to the disc and player, always seat discs so that they are centered in the tray. Do not lift the player while the disc tray is opening or closing, as this may cause the disc to unseat from the tray and possibly jam. Pressing the Open/Close button once a disc has been carefully seated will close the disc drawer while the message CLOSING will appear in the information display. As soon as the tray is closed the display will show the message READING while the Table Of Contents (TOC) of the disc is read. Note that particulary with CD-RW discs this tracking may take some time due to the reflectibility and data structure being different from normal discs. Afterwards, the Information Display will show the total number of tracks and the total running time of the disc. Note that with MP3-CDs, the total running time will not be shown. _ AB TRACK AUTO MIN SEC HOUR Normal Play To play a disc, first turn the HD 990 on using the Power Switch 2 on the front panel or the Power On button 1 on the remote control.
