Switching On And Off - Meridian 500 User Manual

Switching on and off

During normal use the compact disc transport should be left in
the standby state. This uses a negligible amount of electricity,
but ensures that the components of the compact disc transport
operate at maximum efficiency from the moment you start
playing a disc.
If you are not going to use the compact disc transport for a
period of several days you should switch the unit completely off,
at the back panel, and disconnect it from the AC power supply.
To switch on from standby
Press Open (front panel only), > (Play), • (Stop), or =
(Pause).
Switch on any other equipment connected to the compact
disc transport which is not part of the Meridian 500 Series.
To insert a disc
Press Open (front panel only) to open the drawer.
Place your disc, label side up, over the metal hub, as shown
opposite.
Press Open again to close the drawer.
To switch to standby
Press Off.
The display will show:
If you have other Meridian 500 Series equipment connected to
the compact disc transport, 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.
