6.4 player display and indicators
The alphanumeric display indicates track and index numbers,
time in minutes and seconds, or various system messages
(Error, Track programming info, etc). The full stop on the right
of the display window illuminates when the player receives a
signal from the remote handset. If a track play list is
programmed the time displayed reflects the duration of the
program. Above the display are four indicators.
HDCD:
Illuminates to show that an HDCD encoded disc
is playing.
time:
Illuminates to indicate display of total disc time
or elapsed time of track being played.
repeat:
Illuminates to show that repeat has been
selected from the remote handset.
prog:
Illuminates to indicate that a program has been
stored. Further information on play list
programming can be found in Sections 15 and 16

6.6 player maintenance
It is important for reliable operation of the CDS3 to ensure
that the surfaces of the transport platter and the underside
of the puck are free of dust or debris which can prevent
the disc from sitting properly and cause it to slip.
To clean the transport platter, take a piece of Blu-tack and
lightly apply it to the top surface of the magnetic metal
hub, picking up any material attached to it. Brush the
plastic outer edge lightly with your finger or a soft brush to
ensure that it is dust and particle free. Similarly, clean the
puck with Blu-tack, to remove debris from the three
locating pins on its underside. Take care not to damage the
rubber pressure pads. Brush them lightly with your finger or
a soft cloth.
Do not, under any circumstances, use any solvents or fluids
for the cleaning process.
