Switching on and off
When not playing, the CD player should be left in the standby state. This
uses a minimal amount of electricity, but ensures that the components of
the CD player operate at maximum effi ciency from the moment you start.
If you are not going to use the CD player for several days you should switch
the unit off completely at the rear panel, and disconnect it from the AC
power supply.
To switch on from standby
• Press å, *, or > (front panel), or select a source on the remote.
If the CD player is part of a Meridian system it will automatically switch on
any other units in the system, such as the 861 Reference Digital Surround
Controller and Meridian DSP Loudspeakers.
To insert a disc
• Press å (front panel) or Open (remote) to open the tray.
Place your disc in the tray, label side up.
• Press
å (front panel), Open (remote), or > to close the tray.
To switch to standby
• Press Off.
If you have other Meridian equipment or Meridian DSP Loudspeakers
connected to the CD player these units will also switch to standby.
If a disc is currently playing, switching to standby will stop the disc, and the
disc can safely be left in the unit.
Always remove any disc before moving or shipping the 808.
