Notes
• Not all discs have index numbers. The index system is a
method for sub-dividing tracks into smaller divisions (for
example, the movements within classical symphonies) for
easier location of those parts. The liner notes with the disc
usually tell if such index numbers are included.
• If an index number is selected that is higher than any index
number on that disc, play will start from the last index
number point on the disc.
• For some discs, play may begin slightly prior to the actual
designated index point.
• If the disc has no encoded index points, play will begin from
the start of the selected track.

TRACK PROGRAMMING FOR RECORDING TO TAPE
The unit can automatically program tracks considering the tape’s total time. This convenient feature can help you to program tracks
so that they fit onto the tape with the least amount of unrecorded space remaining at the end of each side (A and B) of the tape.
L Automatic tape-programming
The unit can automatically program tracks on a disc in their
original order.

CD SYNCHRONIZED RECORDING
This unit can perform automatic synchronized CD to tape recording. With this function, you can record a CD on tape very easily and
more precisely.
This recording method requires a YAMAHA tape deck compatible with this function. (Refer to the tape deck’s operation manual to
know whether it is compatible or not.)
* This unit and the tape deck must be placed near each other so that both can receive the signals from this unit’s remote control
transmitter.

Battery replacement
If you find that the remote control transmitter must be used
closer to the main unit than usual, the batteries are weak.
Replace both batteries with new ones.
Notes
Notes
• Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.
• Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside
the battery compartment.)
• There should be no large obstacles between the remote
control transmitter and the main unit.
• If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong
lighting (especially an inverter type of fluorescent lamp etc.),
it might cause the remote control transmitter not to work
correctly. In this case, reposition the main unit to avoid direct
lighting.
• Remove the batteries if the remote control transmitter will not
be used for an extended period of time.
• If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid touching
the leaked material or letting it come in contact with clothing,
etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before
installing new batteries.
NOTES ABOUT HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
• This compact disc player is designed only for playing
compact discs bearing the mark. Never attempt to load
any other type of disc into the unit.
• Compact discs are not affected by small particles of dust or
fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so they should
be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe
with a circular motion; wipe straight outward from the center.
The unit will also play 8-cm (3-inch) compact discs.
• To remove a disc from its storage case, open the case and
then press down at the center; with a finger through the
center hole and the outer edges held as shown in the
illustration, lift the disc out carefully.
• Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of
disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or any
other chemical-based liquid, because such substances might
irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
• Always handle the disc with care so that its surface is not
scratched.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature or
high humidity for a long period of time, because these might
warp or otherwise damage the disc.
No!
• Compact discs are not subjected to wear during play, but
damage to the disc surface when the disc is being handled
can adversely affect the disc’s play.
To play a 8-cm (3-inch) CD
Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put a
normal (12-cm/5-inch) CD on top of a 8-cm CD.
