Some audio CDs use copy protection that doesn't con- form to the official CD standard. Since these are non- standard discs, they may not play properly in the CD receiver.

The CD receiver supports CD-R and CD-RW discs. However, some CD-R and CD-RW discs may not work properly for any of the following reasons: disc burner characteristics, disc characteristics, the disc is damaged or dirty. See the manual supplied with your disc burner for more information. Condensation or dirt on the optical pickup lens can also affect play- back.

The CD receiver supports 8 em and 12 cm discs.

The CD receiver does not support disc types not listed. Don't use discs with an unusual shape, such as those shown below, as you may damage the CD receiver.

Don't use dises that have residue from adhesive tape, rental dises with peeling labels, or dises with custom- made labels or stickers. Doing so may damage the CD receiver and you may not be able to remove the disc properly.

Discs made on personal computers, including those of a compatible format, may not work properly in the CD receiver because of incorrect settings in the disc burning software. Check the manuals supplied with your disc burning software for additional compatibility informa- tion.

MP3 discs must be ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2, Romeo or Joliet compliant. Supported formats: Mode 1, Mode 2 XA Form 1.

Folders can be up to eight levels deep.

MP3 files must be MPEG-1/MPEG-2 Audio Layer 3 format with a sampling rate of between 8 kHz and 48 kHz and a bit-rate of between 8 kbps and 320 kbps (128 kbps recommended). Incompatible files cannot be played.

Constant bit rate MP3 files are recommended, how- ever, variable bit-rate (VBR) MP3 files between

8 kbps and 320 kbps are supported. (Playing times may not display correctly.)

MP3 files must have a “mp3” or “.MP3” file name extension. MP3 files without the proper extension will not be recognized. To prevent noise and malfunction, do not use these extensions for other types of files. The CD receiver supports up to 499 MP3 files and folders. Files and folders in excess of this cannot be played. Note that if the file and folder structure is very complicated, the CD receiver may not be able to read or play all of the MP3 files on the disc.

Disc, file, and folder names may contain up to 32 char- acters.

The maximum time that can be displayed for a single file is 99 minutes and 59 seconds.

The remaining time cannot be displayed when playing MP3 files.

MP3 file and folder names (excluding the extension) are shown on the display.

Multisession discs are supported, however, some mul- tisession discs may take a long time to load and some may not load at all. When burning CDs, we recom- mend that you use a single-session (disc-at-once), and select “Disc Close.”

Normally, the music in the audio session of a CD Extra disc is played. However, you can set the CD receiver so that it plays any MP3 files in the data ses- sion of a CD-R/RW disc instead. If the data session contains no MP3 files, the audio session will be played regardless. See “Setting MP3 Preferences” on page 36 for more information.

The Emphasis is not supported.

Disc Notes —Continued

The following ID3 tags are supported: versions 1.0/1.1 and 2.2/2.3/2.4. Versions 2.5 and later are not supported. Normally, version 2.2/2.3/2.4 tags have priority and will be displayed regardless of the ID3 VER I preference on page 37.

For ID3 version 2 tags, the tag information recognized will be those embedded in the beginning of the file. We recommend that you include only title, artist name, and album name information in ID3 tags. Com- pressed, encrypted, and unsynchronized ID3 tags can- not be displayed.

With CD-ROM, CD-R, and CD-RW discs that contain many files and folders and files other than MP3s, it may take a long time to read the disc. We recommend that you include only MP3 files on your discs, use about 20 fold- rs, and limit folder nesting to three levels deep.

Disc Content Organization

= CD CDs contain tracks.

= MP3 MP3 discs contain MP3 files organized into folders.

+ Never touch the underside of a disc. Always hold discs by the edge, as shown.

+ Never attach adhesive tape or sticky labels to discs.

+ For best results, keep your discs clean. Fingerprints and dust can affect the sound quality and should be removed as follows. Using a clean soft cloth, wipe from the center outwards, as shown. Never wipe in a circular direction.

To remove stubborn dust or dirt, wipe the disc with a damp soft cloth, and then dry it with a dry cloth. Never use solvent-based cleaning fluids, such as thin- ner or benzine, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic sprays intended for vinyl records, as they may damage the disc.

+ Don't store discs in places subject to direct sunlight or near heat sourci

+ Don't store discs in places subject to moisture or dust, such as in a bathroom or near a humidifier.

+ Always store discs in their cases and vertically. Stack- ing, or putting objects on unprotected discs may cause warping, scratches, or other damage.

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna, AM loop antenna, and DAB antenna, and how to connect commercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas.

Connecting the DAB Antenna

1 Screwthe supplied DAB antenna’s plug onto the DAB ANTENNA jack. Once the CD Receiver is ready for use, you’Il need to tune into a DAB station and adjust the position of the DAB antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the DAB antenna into position.

WW Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available out- door FM antenna instead.

+ Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.

For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.

Outdoor antenna should be located away from possi- ble noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock haz- ards.

Æ Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

ICS best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If cir- cumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

Displaying the Time in Standby Mode

To set the CD receiver so that the time is displayed while its on Standby, turn on the CD receiver, and then press and hold its [STANDBY/ON] button for 2 seconds. Note that having the time displayed in Standby mode will consume a little more power.

The CD receiver has five timers: four programmable tim- ers for automated playback or recording, and a sleep timer for turning the CD receiver off after a specified period. The timers can be used with other Onkyo components that are connected to the CD receiver via RI (see pages 20 to 24 for hookup details).

The various settings for the four programmable timers are explained here. For details on the sleep timer, see page 55.

Each timer can be programmed for playback (Play) or recording (Rec).

Play mode can be used to start playback at a specified time on the CD receiver or another Onkyo component that's connected to the CD receiver with an I cable. You could use a Play timer to turn on the CD receiver every morning, just like a radio alarm.

Rec mode can be used to start playback on one compo- nent and start recording on another component at a spec- ified time. The recording component (e.g., Onkyo cassette deck or MD recorder) must be connected to the CD receiver with an R1 cable. You could use a Rec timer to record your favorite radio show every day.

Playback and Recording Components

The playback component can be the CD receiver (AM, FM, DAB or CD), an Onkyo component (MD recorder, cassette deck, etc) that's connected to the CD receiver with an RI cable, or a component that's connected to one of the CD receiver’s inputs, perhaps one with its own built-in timer.

The recording component can be an Onkyo MD recorder or cassette deck that’s connected to the CD receiver with an I cable.

Each timer can be programmed to work just once (Once), every week (Every), every day (Every Day), or on a range of days (Days Set).

H Once The timer will work just once.

The timer will work every week on the specified day and time.

The timer will work every day.

The timer will work on the specified range of days. With this setting, you could set up a morning alarm for Mon- day to Friday.

The following examples highlight some of the ways in which you can use the timers.

Timer 1: To wake up to your favorite radio station (pre- set #1) every morning, set as follows:

Play>FM 1Every-Every Day->On 7:00-Off 7:30

If you want a radio alarm only on weekdays, select “Days Set” instead of “Every Day” and specify “MON-FRI”

Timer 2: To record a one-off radio show (preset #2) to a cassette deck this Sunday, set as follows:

Rec->FM 2-2TAPE->Once>SUN-On 21:00-Off 22:00 (You need an RI-capable Onkyo cassette recorder or MD recorder to do the recording.)

Timer 3: To record an FM radio show to a MiniDisc recorder every day from Monday to Friday, set as fol- lows:

Rec->FM 1-MD-Every->Days Set>MON-+ FRI-On 15:000ff 15:30

If two or more timers are set to the same On time, the lowest numbered timer has priority. For example: Timer 1: 07:00 — 13:00 (This timer has priority.) Timer 2: 07:00 — 12:30 If two or more timers overlap, the timer with the earliest Start time has priority. For example: Timer 1: 9:00 — 10:00 Timer 2: 8:00 — 10:00 (This timer has priority.) If the On and Off times of two timers are the same, the timer with the earliest start time has priority and the other timer will fail. For example: Timer 1: 0:00 — 1:00 (This timer has priority.) Timer 2: 1:00 — 2:00

When a timer has been set, the TIMER indica- tor and the number of the timer appear on the display. If the timer has been set to perform recording, an underscore character appears underneath the timer’s number.

+ The timers work only if the CD receiver is on Standby. Ifit's on when a timer is supposed to start playback or recording, nothing will happen.

+ While timed playback or recording is in progress, the timer’s Off time cannot be changed.

+ To use timed playback or recording with an external component, make sure it's properly connected to the CD receiver. Also, for I to work properly, make sure that the Input Display on the CD receiver is set to match the type of component you've connected to the MD/TAPE IN, DOCK/CDR IN, or DIGITAL IN (see page 29).

The sound quality is not good.

Make sure the speaker cables are connected with the correct polarity (see page 18).

+ Make sure all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (see page 19).

e sound quality can be affected by strong magnetic fields, such as that from a TV. Try moving any such devices away from the CD receiver.

If you have any devices that emit high-intensity radio waves near the CD receiver, such as a cellular phone that's being used to make a call, the CD receiver may output noise.

The CD receiver’s precision drive mechanism may emit a faint hissing sound while reading discs during playback or when searching for tracks. You may be able to hear this noise in extremely quiet environments.

Audio output is intermittent when the CD receiver is subjected to vibration.

+ The CD receiver is not a portable device. Use it in a location that's not subject to shock or vibration.

Headphone output is intermittent or there's no sound.

+ This may be due to dirty contacts. Clean the headphones plug, See your headphones’ instruction manual for cleaning information. Also, make sure that the headphones cable is not broken or damaged.

+ Audio performance will be at its best about 10 to 30 minutes after the CD receiver has been turned on and had time to warm up. + Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with speaker or power cables may degrade the sound quality, so don't do it.

CD Playback Playback jumps.

+ The CD receiver is being subjected to vibration or the disc is scratched or dirty (see page 15).

Troubleshooting—Continued

Can't add tracks to the playlist for memory playback.

+ Make sure there's a disc in the CD receiver. Also, you can only add valid track numbers. For example, if the CD contains 11 tracks, you cannot add track #12.

The disc will not play.

+ Make sure the disc has been loaded correctly, with the label-side facing up. + Check to see if the surface of the disc is dirty (see page 15).

+_If condensation is suspected, turn on the CD receiver and leave it for 1 hour before playing any dis + Some CD-R/RW discs may not be playable (see page 14).

It takes a long time for playback to start.

+ It may take the CD receiver a while to read CDs that contain many tracks or files.

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, the Auto Preset function doesn't preset all stations, or the ST indicator doesn't light up when tuned to a stereo FM station.

+ Check the antenna connections (see page 16).

Change the position of the antenna (see page 38).

+ Move the CD receiver away from a nearby TV or computer.

+ Cars or airplanes can cause noisy interference.

The radio signal will be weakened if it has to pass through a concrete wall before reaching the antenna. Try setting FM mode to mono (see page 38).

+ Move power cords and speaker cables as far away as possible from the tuner’s antenna.

When listening to an AM station, noise may be heard when you operate the remote controller.

+_If none of the above improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna (see page 17).

If a power outage occurs or the power cable is disconnected:

+_Ifthe preset stations are lost, preset them again (see pages 43, 44). + The clock and timer settings will be lost. Set the clock and timers again (see pages 49, 50).

Can't adjust the frequency of the radio.

+ Use the Fast Reverse and Fast Forward [4 ]/[ »»] buttons to change the frequency of the radio (see page 38).

+ The FM station you are tuned to doesn't support RDS.

+_Install an outdoor FM antenna (see page 17).

+ Change the position or direction of your outdoor FM antenna (see pages 17, 38).

+ Move the FM antenna as far away as possible from fluorescent lights (see page 38).

The remote controller doesn't work properly.

+ Make sure the batteries have been installed with the correct polarity (+/-) (see page 5).

Replace both batteries with new ones. (Do not mix different types of batteries or new and old batteries.)

The remote controller is 100 far away from the CD receiver, or there's an obstacle between them (see page 5).

The CD receiver’s remote control sensor is being subjected to bright light (inverter-type fluorescent light or sunlight). The CD receiver is located behind the glass doors of a audio rack or cabinet.

Interactive control with other Onkyo RI-capable components is not working.

+ Make sure the RI cables and analog audio cables are connected correctly (see pages 19 to 25). Connecting only an RI cable won't work.

Make sure the Input Display matches the type of device that you've connected to the CD receiver (see page 29). When recording an MP3 CD to an Onkyo recording component, recording will start without performing a peak search when the [CD DUBBING] button is pressed on the recording component. This is not a malfunction.

Troubleshooting—Continued

No sound is heard from a connected component.

+ Make sure the optical digital audio cable is not bent or damaged. + On the external component, set the digital output format to PCM, as the CD receiver supports only PCM signals.

No sound is heard from your turntable.

+ Make sure the turntable has a built-in phono equalizer. +_ If the turntable doesn’t have a phono equalizer built-in, you must provide one.

Timer playback or recording doesn't work.

+ Make sure the clock has been set correctly (see page 49). Timed operation will fail if the CD receiver is on at the specified On time, so make sure its set to Standby (see page 53).

The timer may overlap with another timer. If you program several timers, make sure they don’t overlap (see page 51). If you press the [SLEEP] or [TIMER!] button while a timed operation is in progress, the timer will be cancelled. Make sure the RI cables and analog audio cables are connected correctly (see pages 19 to 25).

If you're using an Onkyo component for timed playback or recording, you must set the Input Display to match that component (see page 29).

The time is not displayed in Standby mode.

+ Set the CD receiver so that the time is displayed in Standby mode (see page 50).

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

The CD receiver contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this should happen, unplug the power cord, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it again.
