Cautions on handling
• Before turning the power switch on
Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are
no problems with the connection cables.
• Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is
set to the standby mode. When going on vacation or leaving home
for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the
power outlet.
• Proper ventilation
If the unit is left in a room full of smoke from cigarettes, etc., for
long periods of time, the surface of the optical pickup may get dirty,
preventing it from receiving signals properly.
• About condensation
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of
the unit and its surroundings, condensation may form on parts inside
the unit, causing it to fail to operate properly.
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power
turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature
before using the unit.
• Cautions on using mobile phones
Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that
occurs, move the mobile phone away from the unit when it is in use.
• Moving the unit
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Next, disconnect the cables connected to other system units before
moving the unit.

8 cm disc

Cautions on storing discs

• Place 8 cm discs in the inner tray guide without using an adapter.

Do not touch the signal surface.

NOTE
Do not push the disc tray in by hand when the power is turned off.
Doing so could damage the set.

Cleaning discs

Cautions on loading discs

Specifications

• Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage
the unit or scratch the discs.
• Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired
with adhesive, etc.
• Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels
is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been
removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it.

Troubleshooting

• If there are fingerprints or dirt on a disc, wipe them off before using
the disc. Fingerprints and dirt can impair sound quality and cause
interruptions in playback.
• Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to clean
discs.

Explanation terms

• “Unsupported” is displayed if a disc that cannot be played is loaded.
• “No Disc” is displayed if the disc is loaded upside-down or if no disc
is loaded.

• Be sure to remove discs after using them.
• Be sure to store discs in their cases to protect them from dust,
scratches, warping, etc.
• Do not store discs in the following places:
1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time
2. Dusty or humid places
3. Places exposed to heat from heaters, etc.

Information

Inner tray guide

Advanced Operations

• Discs in special shapes (heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.)
cannot be played. Do not attempt to play them, as doing so can
damage the unit.
• Some discs and some recording
formats cannot be played.
• Non-finalized discs cannot be
played.
• What is finalization?
Finalization is the process that
makes recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs playable on compatible players.

Basic Operations

Cautions on handling

Protection circuit
The protection circuit is be activated in the following situations:
• If the speaker cable wire touches the rear panel or screws or if the
speaker cable wire touches the speaker cable’s + and – sides are
touching
• If the surrounding temperature is extremely high
• If the inside of the amplifier gets hot to extended use at a high
output
If this happens, unplug the power cord, then check the connections
of the speaker cables and input cables. If the unit becomes very hot,
wait for it to cool off and improve the ventilation around it. After doing
this, plug the power cord back in.
If the protection circuit is activated even though there are no problems
with the ventilation around the unit or in connections, the unit may
be damaged. Turn off the power and then contact a Marantz service
center.

• There are many Internet radio stations on the Internet, and the
quality of the programs they broadcast as well as the bit rate of the
tracks varies widely.
Generally, the higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but
depending on the communication lines and server traffic, the music
or audio signals being streamed may be interrupted. Inversely, lower
bit rates mean a lower sound quality but less tendency for the sound
to be interrupted.
• “Server Full” or “Connection Down” is displayed if the station is
busy or not broadcasting.

What is Bi-Amp?
Bi-amp is a technique used to improve sound quality where separate
speaker cables are used to connect to terminals for the low-end and
mid-range frequencies.
This connection method can help eliminate interference in the midrange caused by back-EMF generated by the speaker unit used for
the low-end.

standards used for the encoding of video and audio.
Video standards include “MPEG-1 Video”, “MPEG2 Video”, “MPEG-4 Visual”, “MPEG-4 AVC”. Audio
standards include “MPEG-1 Audio”, “MPEG-2
Audio”, “MPEG-4 AAC”.

P
Protection circuit
This is a function to prevent damage to
components within the power supply when an
abnormality such as an overload, excess voltage
occurs or temperature for any reason.
In this unit, the power turns off suddenly.
S
Sampling frequency
Sampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave
(analog signal) at regular intervals and expressing
the height of the wave at each reading in digitized
format (producing a digital signal).
The number of readings taken in one second is
called the “sampling frequency”. The larger the
value, the closer the reproduced sound is to the
original.
Speaker impedance
This is an AC resistance value, indicated in Ω
(ohms). Greater power can be obtained with this
value smaller.
