Contents Floating mounting of the CD
mechanism
In order to enhance the audio quality, this unit employs a semi-
floating structure for the CD mechanism so that it is not completely
fixed to the chassis. The entire mechanism, including the tray, can
move slightly forward, backward, left and right. This is by design and
no cause for concern.
Thank you for choosing TEAC.
Read this manual carefully to get the best performance from this
unit.
After reading it, keep it in a safe place for future reference.

Types of discs that can be played by this
unit
CDs with the“COMPACT disc DIGITAL AUDIO”logo
CD-R and CD-RW discs that have been properly
recorded and finalized using the audio CD format.
oThis unit can play 8cm CDs without using an adapter.
Align them with the 8cm CD guide at the center of the disc tray.
VCAUTION
If you try to play any other type of disc with this unit,
loud noises that could damage speakers or harm hear-
ing might occur. Never try to play any type of disc other
than those shown above.
oThis unit might not be able to properly play Copy Control CDs,
Dual Discs or other special CDs that do not conform to the Red
Book CD standard. Operation and sound quality cannot be guar-
anteed when special discs are used in this unit. If playback of a
special disc should cause trouble, contact the seller of the disc.
CD-R/CD-RW discs
This unit can play CD-R/CD-RW discs that are in audio CD format
(CD-DA).
oBe sure to finalize discs created by CD recorders.
oDepending on the quality of the disc and the condition of the
recording, playback might not be possible. For details, see the
operation manual for the device you are using.
oIf you have any questions about how to handle a CD-R or CD-RW
disc, contact the seller of the disc directly.
Precautions for use
oDo not use cracked discs because they could damage the unit.
oWhen writing something on the label side of a disc, use a felt tip
permanent marker. The use of a ballpoint pen or other pen with
a hard tip could damage the disc, making it unplayable.
oNever use commercially-available CD stabilizers. Doing so could
make the disc unplayable or damage the unit.
oNever use discs with irregular shapes, including heart-shaped
and octagonal discs, because they could damage the unit.
oIf a CD-R/CD-RW disc that has a printable label surface is left in
this unit for a long time, it could stick to the inside and become
extremely difficult to remove and possibly even cause the unit to
malfunction.
Always remove such discs and store them in cases when not
in use. Moreover, avoid using discs that have just been printed
because they are especially prone to sticking.
Handling discs
oAlways load discs with their labeled sides up.
oBe careful when handling discs. If the side that contains the data
(unlabeled side) is scratched, smudged with fingerprints or oth-
erwise dirty or marred, errors could occur during playback.
oTo remove a disc from its case, while pressing down on the cen-
ter of the case, hold the disc by its edges.
Removing discs Holding discs

Storing discs
oDiscs should be stored in their cases when not being used.
Failure to do so could result in warping and scratches.
oDo not leave discs in places that are exposed to direct sunlight
or that are very humid or hot. Doing so could cause discs to
become deformed or degraded, making them unplayable.
oCD-R and CD-RW discs are more susceptible to the impacts of
heat and ultraviolet rays than ordinary CDs. For this reason, do
not leave them for long times in places that are exposed to direct
sunlight or near devices that generate heat, for example.
oAlways clean discs before storing them. Leaving a disc in an
unclean state might result in skipping or degraded sound quality.
Maintenance
oIf the side of the disc that has the data encoded on it (unlabeled
side) becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, use a soft cloth to
wipe the surface from the center directly toward the edge.
oNever use record cleaners, antistatic treatments, thinners or
similar chemicals to clean discs. Such chemicals could harm the
surface of the disc.

above and 10cm (4") open behind it. Failure to provide these
gaps could cause heat to build up inside and result in fire.
oPlace the unit in a stable location.
oDo not place anything on top of the unit.
oDo not lift or move the unit during playback because the disc
rotates at high speed. Doing so could damage the disc.
oAlways remove any loaded disc before moving this unit or pack-
ing it for installation in a different location, for example. Moving
the unit with a disc inside could cause damage.
oThe voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage
printed on the back of the unit. If you are in any doubt regarding
this matter, consult an electrician.
oDo not open the body of the unit as this might result in damage
to the circuitry or cause electric shock. If a foreign object should
get into the unit, contact your dealer.
oWhen removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull
directly on the plug; never yank on the cord.
Note about placement
The steel feet are loosely attached to the bottom of the unit, leaving
slight gaps. For this reason, the feet will move slightly from the bot-
tom when the unit is lifted.
This unit is designed to rest on the feet when it is placed so that the
feet do not apply unnecessary stress to the body.
oThe feet will move slightly from the bottom of the unit, but this is
not a defect.
oApply the included pads to the bottoms of the foot-stands to
avoid scratching the surface where the unit is placed.
The top panel of this unit is attached with some play.
oThe panel will move slightly, but this is not a defect.
