REMOTE CONTROL

A wireless remote control is provided with your
compact disc player, enabling you to operate play-
back functions from the comfort of your chair or from
virtually anywhere in the room.
For reliable operation there should be a clear line-
of-sight path from the remote control to the front of
the CD player. If the player does not respond to
remote commands, it may be that this line-of-sight
path is obstructed by clothing, paper, or furnishings.
Numeric keypad. Most of the buttons on the
remote control handset have the same effect as the
corresponding buttons on the front panel of the disc
player. In addition the handset is equipped with a
direct-entry numeric keypad, which causes the player
to jump directly to the beginning of a numbered track
and commence play. Thus to play Track 5, simply
press 5. To play Track 23 press +10, +10, 3.
INSTALLING AND REPLACING BATTERIES
The remote control requires two 1.5-volt AAA-size
(i.e. UM-4 or IEC RO3) cells. Alkaline cells are rec-
ommended, to obtain maximum operating life.
To open the battery compartment, place your fin-
gertip in the recess on the rear of the remote control ,
push against the flexible edge of the battery cover
and lift the cover upwards. Install fresh cells, orienting
them as shown on the diagram within the compart-
ment. The coil springs should contact the (-) end of
each cell. Push the battery compartment cover back

In some cases, poor operation may be caused by
corrosion or fingerprint oil on the battery contacts.
Remove both cells, rub the metal contacts at both
ends of each cell with a clean cloth or a pencil eraser,
and re-install the cells, being careful to orient them
correctly.
MAINTENANCE
At periodic intervals, open the disc drawer and wipe
with a damp cloth to remove any loose dust.

HANDLING COMPACT DISCS

Handle Compact Discs with care. The playback of
a disc will not be impaired by small dust particles, a
few light fingerprints, or slight scratches. But large
scratches, or a thick layer of oily fingerprints, can pre-
vent the player from tracking the disc. (Incidentally,
twice in
although the tracking laser 'plays' the disc through its
clear side, the actual data surface is embedded
directly beneath the label, protected only by a very
thin coating of lacquer. So a scratch that cuts through
the label may damage the disc more than a similar
scratch on the transparent 'playing' surface. Thus you
should treat both surfaces of the disc with care.)
Severe scratches or fingerprints may cause the
player to mis-track (skipping ahead, or repeating the
same passage). Less severe damage may produce
very brief bursts of high-frequency noise. The track-
ing and error-correction circuits of this NAD CD play-
er are unusually sophisticated, providing secure
tracking of flawed discs that are unplayable on some
other players. Nevertheless, the discs should not be
abused or handled carelessly.
For best results, grasp the disc only by its edges.
Another safe method is to put a finger in the center
hole, using the thumb at the edge to hold the disc
steady.
Each disc should be kept in its protective storage
case when not in use. To open the standard Philips-
type plastic CD case, grasp the top and bottom of the
case with the fingers and thumb of the left hand; then
grasp the left and right edges of the case with the fin-
gers and thumb of the right hand, and pull the case
open with the right thumb.
The disc is held in place within the case by an
expansion hub in its center hole. To remove the disc,
press the hub with a finger to release the disc, then
lift it out by gripping its edges between the fingers
and thumb. To replace the disc in the case, simply
align its center hole with the hub and press the disc
onto the hub.

CLEANING DISCS

Soiled discs may be cleaned by wiping with a soft
cloth, either dry or moistened with water. Do NOT use
conventional LP record-cleaning products (cleaning
solutions, sprays, treated cloths, or anti-static prepa-
rations), nor any kind of chemical solvent (alcohol,
benzene, et al). A severely soiled disc may be
washed in a warm-water spray, possibly with a small
