Loading and Unloading Discs

To load a disc, ﬁrst turn the unit on (if it is not already) by pressing the

Power Switch

2on the front panel or the

Power On

button bon the remote, then press the

Open/

button 3p, taking care to make certain that the space in front of the drawer is

not obstructed. When the unit is turned off (to Standby), pressing the

Play

button 4 j

on the front or on the remote will automatically turn on the CD player and start playback.

Also, pressing the

Open/Close

button from Standby switches on the player directly and

opens the drawer.

Load the disc in the tray with the printed (label) side facing up. Make certain that the

disc is centered in the tray. Either 12cm (5") or 8cm (3") discs may be used. When an

8cm disc is played, it should be carefully centered within the smaller ridges inside the

cassette drawer.

To retract the drawer back into the player after loading a disc, press the

Open/Close

button 3 p. When the drawer is closed the display will indicate the total number of

tracks on the disc and the total running time of the disc.

The drawer will also close when the

Play

button 4j is pressed. The drawer will

close and the disc will start playing the ﬁrst track.

To remove a disc from the player, press the

Open/Close

button 3p. The drawer will

open, allowing the disc to be removed.

Disc Handling Notes: When loading or unloading discs, it is best to hold them by

the edges. While compact discs are very reliable, rough handling may damage them.

Avoid scratching the bottom (non-printed) side of discs, or any handling that will leave

ﬁngerprints.

To avoid damage to the disc and player, always seat discs so that they are centered in

the tray. Do not lift the player while the disc tray is opening or closing, as this may cause

the disc to unseat from the tray and possibly jam.

Normal Play

To play a disc, ﬁrst turn the HD 990 on using the

Power Switch

the

Power On

pressing the

the CD player and start playback.

To load or change a disc, open the disc drawer by pressing the

Open/Close

button 3

p. Place a disc in the tray following the instructions shown above.

Pressing the Open/Close button once a disc has been carefully seated will close the

disc drawer while the message “Closing” will appear in the information display. As soon

as the tray is closed the display will show the message “Reading” while the table of

contents (TOC) of the disc is read. Note that particularly with CD-RW discs this tracking

may take some time due to the reﬂectibility and data structure being different from

normal discs. Afterward, the information display will show the total number of tracks

and the total running time of the disc. Note that with MP3 CDs, the total running time

will not be shown.

The drawer will also close when the

close and the disc will start playing the ﬁrst track.

and time elapsed.

To play all of the tracks in random order, press the

Random

indicator will light when that mode is in use. Random can be activated also while a track

is playing. When Random is activated while programmed play is in use (see page 11), all

programmed tracks will be played in random order.

You may also select a speciﬁc track by pressing the

Skip

desired track number is displayed (see page 10). The track may also be selected directly

by entering the track number via the

c, simply enter the track

number by pressing the buttons that correspond to the desired track. Note that when

a two- or three-digit track number is being entered, the second and third digit of the

number must be pressed within two seconds of the ﬁrst digit. After the track is selected,

press the

Play

button 4j.

While the disc is playing, the track being played will show as a number in the middle of

the display just below the word “Track.” The elapsed time of the track being played will

also appear in the display. As a disc plays, the track numbers will change, and the time

will reset to 00:00 at the start of each new track.

and dust from entering the unit, do not leave the disc tray open.

To place the unit in a Standby mode, press the P

the

Power Off

button a on the remote. The display will show a “Standby” message

for a moment and the

Status Mode Indicator

will glow orange, indicating that the unit

is off, but ready to accept a Power On command from the remote. If the disc drawer

is open, it will automatically close when the unit is placed in the Standby mode. This

ensures that the unit will not be harmed by dust, dirt or inadvertent damage to the

drawer mechanism.

Note that the unit is not removed from AC main power when it is in the Standby mode but

its power consumption is reduced to a low value. To remove the AC power completely

from the unit its AC

Power

Cord 4 must be plugged into a switch-controlled AC outlet

that is turned off. We recommend using the switched AC outlet on the rear side of a

receiver or ampliﬁer. When that AC outlet will be turned on, the HD 990 will always turn

to the Standby mode even if it was on before the AC power was removed.

Display Dim

In some situations, it may be desirable to reduce the brightness of the display or to turn

it off completely. To do this, press the

Display

button q on the remote or the Display

Dimmer button 9 on the main unit to dim the display to half brightness. Press it again

to turn the display off. A third press will return the display to normal level.
