BEFORE USING
NOTES ABOUT THE DISCS
* Handle the discs carefully so as not to scratch
their surfaces.
* Keep the surfaces of the discs clean at all
times.
When cleaning the surfaces of discs, always be
sure to use the special cleaner and wipe the
surfaces in the directions shown in the figure below.
* Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to
the label surfaces of the discs.
When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental
CD label with paste protruding from the edge or
when a disc still bears traces of sticky tape or
adhesive labels, do not attempt to play it. If such
a disc is played on the CD player, you may find
that you cannot remove it or that some other kind
of malfunctioning may occur.
* Do not use discs which come in special
shapes.
Do not attempt to play heart-shaped or octagonal
discs or discs with any other special shapes. You
may find that you cannot remove them or that some
other kind of malfunctioning may occur in the
player.
* Use discs which satisfy the CD standards such
as those with the “CD logo”, “ ” or “
TEXT
”
mark on their disc label surfaces.
No guarantees are made for playback if discs
which do not satisfy the appropriate CD standards
are used.
Similarly, no guarantees are made for their sound
quality even if it is possible to play such discs.
* To protect your discs from damage, avoid
placing them in the following locations.
•Where they will be exposed to direct sunlight or
where they will be close to a heater or other
heat-radiating appliance
•Where the humidity level is high or it is very dusty
•Near a window or other such location where they
may be exposed to rain
* Get into the habit of putting the discs back in
their cases after use.
INAPPROPRIATE PLACES FOR
INSTALLATION
To keep your player in perfect working order for the
longest possible time, avoid installing the player in
the following locations.
•Wherever it will be exposed to direct sunlight
•Wherever it will be close to a heater or other heat-
radiating appliance
•Wherever the humidity is high or ventilation is poor
•Wherever it is very dusty
•Wherever it will be subject to vibration
•On top of a rickety stand or in an unstable location
which is tilted at an angle
•On top of an amplifier or other component which
dissipates a great deal of heat
•In an audio rack with little space at the top and
bottom or other location where the heat dissipation
will be obstructed
To ensure proper heat dissipation, install the player
while leaving clearances between the player and
wall or other components, as shown in the figure
below.

ABOUT PLAYING COPY-CONTROLLED
CDS
•Some copy-controlled CDs may not conform to
official CD standards. They are special discs and
may not play on the CD7300.
DO NOT PLACE OBJECTS ONTOP
•Refrain from placing any objects on top of the
player.
CAUTIONS ON HANDLING POWER
CORD
•Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
•When disconnecting the power cord, always make
sure that you take hold of the plug. Yanking out or
bending the cord can damage it and/or cause
electric shocks or a fire.
•Get into the habit of disconnecting the power plug
before leaving home.
DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIRS
YOURSELF
•Refrain from lubricating the player: doing so can
cause malfunctioning.
•Only qualified engineers with specialized expertise
are authorized to repair the pick-up and parts
inside the player.
PRECAUTIONS
•In winter, droplets of water form on the insides of
the windows of a heated room: this is called
condensation. This CD player uses an optical lens,
so the condensation may form in the following
cases.
- In a room immediately after the heating has
been turned on
- In a room where the humidity level is high
- When the player has been suddenly brought
from a cold location into a warm room
Since, in cases like this, the track numbers may
not be read and the player is prevented from
operating properly, wait about 30 minutes, and then
operate the player.
•This player may cause interference on a tuner or
TV set. If this is the case, place it further away
from the tuner or TV set.
•Compact discs have much less noise than analog
records and hardly any noise is heard before play
starts. Bear in mind, therefore, that if the volume
control on the amplifier is set too high, you will risk
damaging other audio components.
•This player is designed to play music CDs only. It
cannot play CD-ROMs used with personal
computers, game CDs, video CDs or DVDs (video/
audio).
CAUTIONS ON HANDLING
BATTERIES
Misuse of the batteries can result in electrolyte
leakage, rupturing, corrosion, etc.
Bear in mind the following points when using
batteries.
•Remove the batteries from the remote control unit
if the unit is not going to be used for a prolonged
period (a month or more).
•Do not use an old battery together with a new one.
•Insert the batteries while ensuring that their ª
and ·poles are properly aligned with the
corresponding markings on the remote control unit.
•Batteries with the same shape may have different
voltages. Do not use different types of batteries
together.
•If electrolyte has leaked, thoroughly wipe the inside
of the battery compartment, and then insert new
batteries.

USAGE OF REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
PRECAUTIONS
- Do not allow direct sunlight, an inverter fluorescent
light or other strong source of light to shine onto
the player’s infrared signal reception window
(remote sensor). Otherwise, the operation of the
remote control unit may be disabled.
- Bear in mind that operating the remote control unit
may cause other devices operated by infrared rays
to be operated by mistake.
- The remote control unit cannot be operated if the
space between the controller and the player’s
remote sensor is obstructed.
- Do not place any objects on top of the remote
control unit. Doing so may cause one or more
buttons to be held down which will cause the
batteries to run down.
OPERATIONAL RANGE
As shown in the figure below, the player can be
operated by the remote control unit in a range which
of about 5 meters from the player’s remote sensor
and over an angle up to 30 degrees to the left and
30 degrees to the right of the position directly in front.
LOADING BATTERIES
Before using the supplied remote control unit for the
first time, load the batteries in the remote control unit.
The batteries provided are used to verify the
operations of the remote control unit only.
1Take hold of the tab on the battery cover which
is found on the back side of the remote control
unit, and pull it up.

FEATURES
• Marantz’s unique high-density voltage amplifier
module HDAM®circuit featured
This player features Marantz’s same unique
HDAM®(high-density voltage amplifier module)
circuit which is incorporated into the model SA-
12S1 SACD multi-channel player in its audio output
circuit. The circuit achieves a high signal
processing speed and wide band as a result,
ensuring playback with a high sound quality.
• CS4396 high-performance D/A converter made by
Cirrus Logic used
The CS4396 D/A converter whose CD playback
circuitry has the same design as the CS4397 D/A
converter, which was also made by Cirrus Logic
and which has proved to be a valuable asset for
the Marantz model SA8260 SACD player, has
been adopted.
During CD play, the PCM signals recorded on the
disc are oversampled to 128fs inside the D/A
converter and then processed by a combination
of the dynamic element matching (DEM) and multi-
element switched capacitors to achieve playback
characterized by a high linearity.
This new CD playback technology opens the door
to new dimensions in high-sound-quality CD play.
• Separate configuration of digital and analog parts
The digital part consisting of the servo, decoder
and microcomputer circuitry is packed onto the CD
mechanism board where it is separated from the
analog (audio circuitry) part.
This configuration shuts out the pulsive noise
generated from the digital part and helps to yield
pure music playback.
• Display OFF function incorporated
The “display OFF”function enables the main unit
display to be turned off. By turning off this display,
the pulsive noise generated from the display is
reduced, thus eliminating its effects on the music
signals.
• Double-layer chassis construction using a 2.0 mm
thick steel plate (weighing 1.5 kg) at the bottom
Endowing the bottom panel (bottom chassis) with
a double-layer construction yields a vibration-
damping structure that diminishes the effects of
both the rotational vibrations of the discs and
external vibrations.
• Playback of unfinalized CD-R/CD-RW discs
supported
The CD7300 can play even the CD-R and CD-
RW discs on which information can still be
recorded—something that conventional CD
players could not do.
Since this player can play unfinalized discs which
have some remaining recording time, partially
edited discs can be played as well.
• MP3 file play and display of text information (ID3
tag) supported
This player supports CD-R/CD-RW discs with MP3
file recordings. It also supports the text information
(ID3 tag) of the MP3 files so that track information,
the names of the artists and other text information
can be displayed. (Text cannot be displayed in
Japanese.)
• Pitch control function
The “pitch control”function enables the play speed
(pitch) to be varied over a ±12% range. This feature
is particularly useful for musical instrument practice
sessions.
• Quick replay function
By a single-action operation, the “quick replay”
function enables play to be moved back from the
current play position for the time equivalent to the
setting (setting range: 1 to 30 seconds) and play
to be resumed.
This function makes it possible to return to a part
of the track that was just played so it can be heard
again.
• EASY JOG control function
This player comes with an EASY JOG control
which has become such a familiar function with
media such as MDs. Using this control together
with the numeric buttons (0 to 9) on the front panel
enables tracks to be located speedily and various
playback functions to be set conveniently.
• CD-TEXT display supported
• Timer play supported
• VAM2202 dedicated audio mechanism made by
Philips featured
