INTRODUCTION:
Congratulations on your purchase of a Gemini CDX-802 CD Player.
Your state-of-the-art professional CD Player is backed by a three year
warranty that excludes lasers, which are covered by a separate one
year warranty. Prior to use of this unit, we suggest you carefully read
the following intructions.
Your Gemini CDX-802 CD Player comes equipped with ADCS (Automatic
Disc Calibration System), a unique state-of-the-art feature. CDs are
produced by a variety of manufacturers and recorded by many different
professional companies as well as the do-it-yourselfers at home. Therefore,
all CDs do not play the same. The ADCS automatically adjusts the laser in
your CDX-802 CD Player for each individual CD you insert into the tray, to give
you the best possible performance for every CD you play regardless of how it
was manufactured or how it was recorded. With this exclusive system you
always get consistent and reliable performance as well as exceptional
sound quality every time you play a CD... any CD.

DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (6) shows total tracks; track number; pitch value;
single-auto cue; continue (continuous play); and three different time
displays: track time elapsed, track time remaining and total time remaining
on disc. Time is measured in minutes, seconds and frames.
PLAYBACK DISPLAY: The PLAYBACK DISPLAY (7) displays the
play time remaining for each track. The display flashes slowly when
the track has 15 seconds remaining and pulses rapidly when play
time is down to five seconds.
PLAY/PAUSE : Each press of PLAY/PAUSE (8) causes the operation
to change from PLAY to PAUSE or PAUSE to PLAY.
TRACK SKIP : The TRACK SKIP (9) buttons let you select
the track to play.
SEARCH JOG WHEEL: The SEARCH JOG WHEEL (10) has two
functions. Use the SEARCH JOG WHEEL (10) to make fine adjustments
in PAUSE mode. Use the SEARCH JOG WHEEL (10) to bend the pitch
for precise synchronization in PLAY mode.
SEARCH DIAL: Use the SEARCH DIAL (11) to select the scanning
direction and speed of your CD. Turning the dial in a clockwise
direction scans forward while a counter-clockwise turn scans
the track in reverse. Scan speed increases as the dial is turned.
STOP : The STOP (12) button ends CD play.
TIME: The TIME (13) button switches the time display between the
three available choices listed under DISPLAY (6).
FLY CUE: The FLY CUE (14) function lets you set cues "on the fly" with the
press of a button. Press FLY CUE (14) when the disc reaches the musical
location you wish to make your cue or start point. The cue point is now
programmed. Press CUE (15) to return to the cue point. Press PLAY/PAUSE
(16) and the unit starts from the pre-programmed spot.
CUE: With the unit in the PLAY mode (PLAY/PAUSE LED is green) and
after the cue point has been programmed, pressing CUE (15) will
cause the CD player to enter the PAUSE mode (green PLAY/PAUSE
