This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequeney energy
and, If not installed and used in accordance with the lnstructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment dose cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures.
●Reorient or relocate the recelving antenna.
●Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
●Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
●Consult the dealer or an experiencced radio/TV technician for help.
This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment
Regulations.
Cet appareil numerique de la Classe B respecte toutesles exigences du Reglement sur le materier brouilleur du
Canada.
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13
Amp plug.To change a fuse in this type of plug
proceed as follows:
1.Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2.Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A.
A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3.Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, It should be cut off and an appropriate plug
fitted in its place. It the mains plug conlains a fuse.
this should have a value of 5A. If a plug without a
fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board
should not be greater than 5A.

FEATURES
● It is the single CD player for DJ which corresponded to the function and the performance for which CD player for
DJ is required, and adhered to tone quality.
● By passing through the electronic parts selected carefully and an original circuit, a digital sound peculiar to CD is
made to the tone quality which creates the warmth of analog. Thereby, the mixture condition of the sound when mixing
with the sound of an analog turntable changes at the time of DJ play.
● Three kinds of effects(flanger, a delay and filter) are built in this unit, and it can be synchronized with
BPM which automatic-detected or set manual up (it is to one line that it can be used simultaneously).
● It corresponds also to reproduction of an MP3 file in addition to the usual CD data. It is possible to reproduce the
MP3 file recorded on CD-R/RW. (However, MP3 reproduction has restriction in functions, such as a CUE point and
loop reproduction
● Each music is distinguished from the number of time of the whole CD, or the length of music, and the track memory
function to make a setup memorize in a main part at the time of reproduction of a maximum of 100 tracks is carried.
The work of teaching a CUE point LOOP point, a BPM value, etc. beforehand can also be done.
● The JOG wheel with a touch switch convenient for a search and scratch operation is adopted as a JOG wheel. Thereby,
operation becomes possible with the operation feeling of an analog turntable. Moreover, it can be operated by connecting
with TASCAM TT-M1 using VESTAX turntable PDX-2000 series instead of a JOG wheel.
17. Servicing-Do not attempt to service product
yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerrous voltage or other hazards. Refer
all servicing to qualified personnel.
18. Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this product
from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions:
a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damage.
b. If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen
into the product.
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the product dose not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls that are coverd by the operating
instructions as an improper adjustment of other,
controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician
to restore the product to its normal operation.
e. If the product has been dropped or cabinet has
been damaged.
f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in
perfromance-this indicates need for service.
19. Replacement Parts-When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have
the same characterristics as the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock or other hazards.
20. Safety Check-Upon completion of any service or
repairs to product, ask the service technician to
perfrom sefety checks to determine that the product is
in proper operating condition.
21. Carts and Stands-The appliance should be used only
with a cart stand that is recommended by
manufacturer.
22. An appliance and cart combination should be moved
with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.

A conventional CD consists of two (2) sides. Typically one side bears a label stating the name of the CD and artist
whilst the front side, rainbow like in its color, contains the information that makes this technology work. There are
approximately six (6) million data items stored on any one given CD front surface. Please make sure to load the
CD into the playing mechanism correctly, so that the front side (rainbow) is unable to be seen once the lid is
closed.
Unlike conventional analog turntables, CD technology uses a fine laser beam instead of a stylus to read the
contents of the disc. As a result of there being little physical contact, a CD will take infinitely longer to degrade.
Repeated use of a CD, even playing over the same track again and again will likely have very little effect on the
audible quality of the discs data.
However, the front surface of a CD is brittle and may be scratched or damaged if you are careless in its handling.
Thus, please take care to load you CDs correctly and ensure that you store them in a safe place. Furthermore,
avoid leaving CDs in direct sunlight or in close proximity to a heating device or hot object, in the rain or in water,
or on surfaces that have excessive moisture or surface dirt/grime. Also take care when cleaning any CD by using a
recommended or special purpose cleaning cloth, cleaning spray or product and always wipe in the direction
illustrated below.
・Please do not inhibit access to this unit's main switch by operating it in a confined area.
・Do not expose to water, moist environments or operate this device in an area likely to be effected by liquid
spillage or dripping.
BEFORE USE
Using CDs.
●Wipe from the inside out. ●Do not wipe in a circular fashion.
●Never use record cleaner designed for conventional analog disks, this will degrade the CD disc surface.
■Always store disc properly in the case.
