How to power up your system
You should always power up your system the following way:
Signal sources (CD player, tuner etc.) fi rst, then the preampli-
fi er/power amplifi er/integrated amplifi er. When turning your
system off, you should start by switching off your power ampli-
fi er/integrated amplifi er. Finally the signal source devices.
Loading a disc
1. Load the disc by open the CD drawer, press the disc button
on the front panel or on the remote control. «Open» is shown
on the display.
2. Place the disc on the drawer. Press the disc button on the
front panel or on the remote control. The CD player must fi rst
read and load vital information from the disc. During this pro-
cess, the display shows ”READING” and takes approximately
three seconds. Tracks and total time are displayed.

Warning:
(The laser pick-up is located behind the spindle.)
NEVER look directly into the laserbeam!!!
Under normal circumstances the laser needs no
cleaning.
Do not use any kind of “cleaning CDs”!
Important notice
For optimal sonic performance, the V1.0 should be burned
in for a minimum time of 96 hours. The easiest way to burn
in your V1.0 is to put a disc in REPEAT mode with the rest
of your system turned off.
If the product has been switched off, allow two hours of
warm-up to optimise sonic performance.
