Using the Remote Controller

When you operate the remote controller, point it at the CD receiver’s remote control sensor, as shown below.

Remote control sensor

+ The remote controller may not work reliably if the CD receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sun- light or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.

If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the CD receiver is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote control- ler may not work reliably.

Don't put anything, such as a book, on the remote con- troller because the buttons may be pressed inadvert- ently, thereby draining the batteries.

The remote controller may not work reliably if the CD receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.

The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the CD receiver’s remote con- trol sensor.

Controlling an Onkyo MD Recorder, Cassette Deck, or RI Dock

Explanation of buttons for using the Onkyo MD recorder, cassette deck, RI Dock, or CD recorder when connected to the MD/TAPE jack, DOCK/CDR or OPTICAL DIGITAL IN (CR-725DAB only) jack of the CD receiver.

+ See pages 19-23 for instructions on connecting the components.

Connecting an Onkyo component to the CD receiver with an fRI cable allows you to control the component with the CD receiver’s remote controller. In addition, when playback is started on the component, the CD receiver will auto- matically select it as the input source.

It will also be necessary to change the input display titles to correspond to the equipment that is connected (see page 28).

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

The CD receiver supports 8 cm 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 discs that have residue from adhesive tape, rental discs with peeling labels, or discs with custom- made labels or stickers. Doing so may damage the CD receiver and you may not be able to remove the disc properly.

CD-R/RW Compatibility

+ The CD receiver supports CD-R and CD-RW discs. However, some CD-R and CD-RW dises 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 playback.

+ Make sure to use discs that have been finalized.

Dises 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 session 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 sup- ported. Normally, version 2.2/2.3/2.4 tags have prior- ity and will be displayed regardless of the ID3 VER 1 preference on page 36.

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

E CD CDs contain tracks.

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, ete.

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.

E Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

IE 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.

The CD receiver has five tiers: 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 FRI (see pages 19 to 23 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 RI 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 RI 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 (FM, DAB or CD), an Onkyo component (MD recorder, cas- sette 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 RI 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 (preset #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-TAPE->Once->SUN->On 21:00-0Off 22:00 (You need an RI-capable Onkyo cassette recorder or MD recorder to do the record- ing.)

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

Rec>FM 1=MD-Every->Days Set>MON> FRI-0On 15:00Off 15:30

Iftwo 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.) Ifthe 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 OPTICAL DIGI- TAL IN (CR-725DAB only) (see page 28).

Troubleshooting—Continued

+ 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 14). 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 14).

+_ If condensation is suspected, turn on the CD receiver and leave it for 1 hour before playing any discs. + Some CD-R/RW discs may not be playable (see page 13).

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. Can't play MP3 discs.

+ Use only ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 format di: + The disc has not been finalized. Finalize the disc.

+ MP3 files without a “.mp3” or “.MP3" filename extension are not recognized.

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 15). + 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. he 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 tuners antenna. If none of the above improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna (see page 16). 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.

+ The remote controller is 100 far away from the CD receiver, or there's an obstacle between them (see page 11).

+ 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 23). 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 28).

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.

No sound is heard from a connected component.

Make sure the optical digital audio cable is not bent or damaged. (CR-725DAB)

On the external component, set the digital output format to PCM, as the CD receiver supports only PCM signals. (CR- 725DAB)

Make sure the correct input source is selected (see page 26).

Make sure the analog audio cable is connected correctly (see pages 19 to 24).

+ Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (see page 18).

No sound is heard from your turntable.

+ Make sure the turntable has a built-in phono equalizer. +_Ifthe 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 pages 49, 50). Timed operation will fail if the CD receiver is on at the specified On time, so make sure it's 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 fRI cables and analog audio cables are connected correctly (see pages 19 to 23).

If you're using an Onkyo component for timed playback or recording, you must set the Input Display to match that component (see page 28). 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.
