Notes  
Not all discs have index numbers. The index system is a  
method for sub-dividing tracks into smaller divisions (such  
as, 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

CD SYNCHRONIZED RECORDING  
This unit can make a tape deck’s recording synchronized with CD play automatically. With this function, you can record a CD on  
tape very easily and more precisely.  
This recording method needs 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 close to each other so that both of them can receive the signals from this unit’s  
remote control transmitter at the same time.

Remoto control sensor  
Within approximately  
6 m (19.7 feet)  
Battery replacement  
If you find that the remote control transmitter must be used  
closer to the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both  
batteries with new ones.  
Notes  
Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.  
Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside  
Notes  
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 to not 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 of  
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 3-inch (8-cm) 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 3-inch (8-cm) CD  
Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put  
a normal (5-inch/12-cm) CD on top of a 3-inch CD.
