6.1 Disc Loading

To open the transport door press the player 

door 

button or the 

handset 

open 

key. To load a disc place it on the platter followed 

by the magnetic 

puck

. Do not use a puck from any other Naim 

CD player.

If the player is stopped the door will open automatically when 
a hand is moved towards the proximity sensor located in the 
player front panel display window.

To close the door press the player 

door 

button or the handset 

open 

key. The door will also close if the player 

play 

button or 

handset 

play 

key are pressed.

Note:

 If the door hits an obstruction the door indicator will flash 

and the door will stop moving. Remove the obstruction before 
attempting to open or close the door again.

Note:

 If the door is left open for five minutes it will close 

automatically to prevent inadvertent damage or dust build-up 
within the player.

Note:

 If an HDCD® encoded compact disc is loaded the CD555 

will automatically recognise and decode it. The display will read 
HDCD for a few seconds after play is pressed.

6.2 Player Maintenance

It is important for reliable operation of the CD555 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 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 its underside.

Do not, under any circumstances, use any solvents or fluids for 
the cleaning process.

6.3 Player Door Reset and Calibration

If at any time the player door fails to open or close correctly, or 
the top panel door button flashes, the door may need re-setting 
and calibrating. The procedures are as follows. 

It may only be necessary to carry out the 

Position Calibration

 

procedure.

6.3.1 Door Position Calibration

Switch the player off. Hold down the top panel 

door

 button and 

switch the player on. The player display should read

 . Switch 

the player off and, after a short while, back on again. If the door 
button flashes this indicates that the 

Door

 and 

Motion 

Calibration

 procedures are necessary. Carry out the following 

two procedures.

6.3.2 Door Reset

Note:

 Door Reset will also reset DIN/Phono Socket selection, 

Display settings, RC5/RS232 settings and Control Mode setting 
(see Section 16.2).

Switch the player off. Hold down the top panel

 button and 

switch the player on. Switch the player off and carry out the

procedure.

6.3.3 Door Motion Calibration

With the door fully closed press and hold the top panel 

door

 

and 

play

 buttons and switch the player on. 

The door will continually open and close and the level of open/
close gain adjustment will be displayed. Allow the player to 
run until the values displayed for open and close have settled 
to consistent values. The door should now open and close 
consistently. Switch the player off and, after a short while, back 
on again. The door should now operate correctly.
