CD5
11 Installation and Operation
The CD5 CD Player can be operated either from its internal power supply alone or, for
improved performance, with an additional external Supercap, Hi-cap or Flatcap 2 Power
Supply. Connection of a Flatcap 2 is illustrated in Diagram 12.2
The CD5 should be installed on a dedicated equipment stand intended for the purpose.
Care should be taken to ensure that the player is level. Two transit screws on the
underside of the CD5 case should be removed before use and must be replaced if the
unit is to be re-packed and shipped. These transit screws must not be used in any other
Naim product. The transit screw locations are illustrated in Diagram 13.1.
11.1 disc loading
Disc loading is illustrated in Section 13.2. To load a compact
disc pull open the CD drawer using the handle on the left
hand side of the player. Place the disc on the platter followed
by the magnetic puck. Do not use a puck from any other
Naim CD player. Different Naim CD players use dissimilar
pucks. The illustration in Section 14 will help identify the
correct puck for the CD5.

11.5 power supply upgrade
The CD5 can be upgraded through the addition of an
external Power Supply. The external supply works with the
internal power supply of the CD5 to offer both a greater
number of separate supplies and more sophisticated
voltage regulation. The Power Supply is connected to the
CD5 via a five pin DIN cable. Switch off both the Power
Supply and CD5 when making connections. Connect the
play
supply cable ensuring that the connectors are securely
attached. Switch on both the CD5 and the Power Supply
from their respective power buttons.

11.6 player maintenance
It is important for reliable operation of the CD5 to ensure
that the surfaces of the transport platter and the underside
of the puck are free of dust or debris which can prevent
the disc from sitting properly and cause it to slip.
To clean the transport platter, take a piece of Blu-tack and
lightly apply it to the top surface of the magnetic metal
hub, picking up any material attached to it. Brush the
and
play
plastic outer edge lightly with your finger or a soft brush to
ensure that it is dust and particle free. Similarly, clean the
puck with Blu-tack, to remove debris from the three
next
while the
locating pins on its underside. Take care not to damage the
rubber pressure pads. Brush them lightly with your finger or
a soft cloth. Do not, under any circumstances, use any
solvents or fluids for the cleaning process.
