1-IntroductionTASCAM CD-RW900 9Inserting batteries1. Open the lid.2. Confirm +/- polarity, and insert two AAA batteries.3. Close the lid.1 − IntroductionNever use a stabilizer or printable discsBeware of condensationIf the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a coldto a warm place, or used after a sudden temperaturechange, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in theair could condense on the internal mechanism, makingcorrect operation impossible. To prevent this, or if thisoccurs, leave the player for one or two hours with thepower turned on, then turn the power off and on again.Using commercially available CD stabilizers or printablerecordable discs with this player will damage the mech-anism and cause it to malfunction.NOTENever use a disc that has had a stabilizer mounted to it.The residual adhesive may cause the disc to stick to theturntable of the CD-RW900. If it sticks to the turntable,you will need a technician to get it out.≠ Do not expose the light-receptive spot to the directsunlight or intense lights of an illumination for extend-ed periods. Long exposure to the lights may result afailure of the unit functions.≠ When the remote control will not be used over onemonth, please remove the batteries to prevent thepossibility of battery acid leakage which could dam-age the unit. Should leakage occur, remove anddiscard the batteries, and wipe the battery case thor-oughly with a cloth. Avoid getting the battery liquidon the skin. After cleaning, replace with new batter-ies.≠ The remote control functions by using an infraredlight signal. When using the unit to control the CD-RW900, other devices that are turned on could beoperated by its signal.≠ If the range of remote operation becomes smaller, orcommands do not always function properly, the bat-teries have become weak and should be replaced.Always replace both batteries with new batteries ofthe same type.≠ Point the remote control to the remote sensor on themain unit. Do not obstruct the path between the re-mote control and the remote sensor.Use of the remote control unitIf batteries are used improperly, or if leakage or break-age occurs, the unit will not function. Please observethe cautions indicated on the batteries and their pack-aging to ensure proper usage.≠ Confirm + and − polarity and follow the indicationswhen inserting new batteries into the remote control.≠ Do not use old and new batteries together.≠ Even if the battery is the same size, the voltage maydiffer. Do not use batteries of different specificationstogether.≠ Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are non-rechargeable.≠ Do not open or disassemble batteries, throw theminto a fire or put them in water.BatteriesConnectionsThe following should be noted when you connect theunit to other equipment.It is possible to connect the unit’s DIGITAL COAXIALIN, DIGITAL OPTICAL IN and ANALOG UNBAL-ANCED INs (L, R) to other equipment at the sametime. However, the unit can receive signals from onlyone digital input at a time.Currently selected input jack is shown on the display.Audio signals output from the unit are output from theanalog ANALOG OUT jacks, as well as from the DIGI-TAL COAXIAL OUT jack and DIGITAL OPTICAL OUTconnector simultaneously (but not from the digital out-puts in stop mode).
