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

If the disc has no encoded index points, play will begin from
the start of the selected track.
The index number can be designated only while the INDEX

This convenient feature can be used to program tracks on a disc for recording to tape. By only memorizing the tape’s total possible
recording time, the unit will automatically program tracks or help you to program tracks so they will fit onto the tape with the least
amount of unrecorded space remaining at each end of the tape.

Notes
• If, in step 3 or 5, “E rr” appears on the display, the track
number just selected cannot be programmed because there
is not enough time remaining on the tape. However, at this
time, if any other track number is flashing continuously on
the display, you can program it instead of the
unprogrammable one.
* Programmed track numbers light up on the display. You
can select a track which can be programmed for the
remaining time of (the side of) the tape from track
numbers flashing on the display, but you cannot select a
track number extinguished from the display.
• In step 3 or 5, each time a selection is made, the track
number and the tape’s remaining time will be displayed, and
then the display will change to indicate the next program
number.
• CD synchronized recording function can be used if your tape
deck is compatible with it. If so, in step 6 and 7, press the
SYNCHRO button and then press the PLAY button on this
unit’s remote control transmitter. Recording automatically

Notes on tape programming

Up to a maximum of 25 tracks can be programmed. If,
however, the PAUSE mode is inserted, it is counted as one
track.
• This function can be used to program up to track number 24.
If the disc has more than 24 tracks, track number 25 and
thereafter will not be programmed.

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.

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
the battery compartment.)
•
•
Notes
Remove the batteries if the remote control transmitter will not
be used for an extended period of time.
There should be no large obstacles between the remote
control transmitter and the main unit.
•
•
If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid
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.
•
•
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 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.
compact discs bearing the
mark. Never attempt to load
any other type of disc into the unit.
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.
