Bogen CDC-3 CD Player User Manual


 
Compact Disc & Player Care Instructions
In order to avoid sound degradation, the following instructions ought to be followed in caring for
compact discs.
Always store discs in their cases when not being used.
When storing, avoid locations with high or low temperatures or high humidity. Do not store in
direct sunlight.
Keep discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge to the outer
periphery. If necessary, dip a soft cloth in water, and after wringing it out well, wipe any dirt away
gently and then wipe dry with a soft cloth. Do not use any cleaners or liquids, other than water,
to clean discs.
When handling a disc, grip the outside part of the the disc in order to avoid touching the signal
line.
Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the surface of the disc or the label on the disc.
Do not use compact discs with special shapes (such as heart-shaped or octagonal discs) as they
may damage the player.
Note:The CDC-3 will not play rewritable (CD-RW) discs, but will play recordable (CD-R) discs.
Connections
AUX Input Connections
The AUX input of the CDC-3 accepts a stereo cable with RCA plugs, thereby allowing the con-
nection of an additional audio source.Whenever the CDC-3 is not playing a disc, the CDC-3 will
play the AUX source.
The CDC-3 volume control only affects the level of the CD playback signal.The CDC-3 volume
control will not affect the volume level of the AUX source.
To match the volume level of the AUX source with the CDC-3, set the AUX source’s volume con-
trol (if it has one) and the amplifier volume to the desired level.Then, start the CDC-3 and adjust
its volume control until it is approximately at the same level as the AUX source and amplifier.
Output Connections
The CDC-3 provides both a stereo output and a mono output. Select whichever output is suit-
able for the particular installation. Connections are made using RCA cables.
