Basic Operation
Playing a CD
•
The ERC-4 must be On in order to play a disc (the Standby button will be halo lit blue and the
display and buttons will be illuminated).
•
If the ERC-4 is in Standby mode (the Standby button halo lit amber), press the front panel
Standby button or the Standby button on the remote control to turn the ERC-4 On.
•
If the ERC-4 is powered off (nothing is lit), turn the ERC-4 On (into Standby mode) using the
rear panel Power switch, then press the Standby button on the front panel or the remote
control to turn the ERC-4 fully On.
•
Press the Open button on the front panel or the remote control to open the CD Loading Tray.
•
Place the CD carefully into the Loading Tray. The CD should be inserted with the playing
surface down (label on top), centered in the shallow round depression in the tray.
•
Press Open button again to close the tray and load the disc.
•
The CD will load and start playing automatically when the Loading Tray is closed.
Note: The control processor in the ERC-4 remembers the current location on every disc you play.
If you insert a disc which you have previously played, or turn on the ERC-4 with a disc already
inserted, it will resume playing at the location where playback of that disc was stopped the last
time it was played on the ERC-4. To start playing the disc again from the beginning press the
Play Button.
Note: The ERC-4 defaults to the CD Input. Therefore, if you turn on the ERC-4 , it will select the
CD Input as its audio source. If there is already a CD in the drive, it will start playing from the
location where it was previously stopped.
Ejecting a CD
•
The ERC-4 must be On in order to eject a disc (the Standby button will be halo lit blue and the
display and buttons will be illuminated).
•
If the ERC-4 is in Standby mode (the Standby button halo lit amber), press the front panel
Standby button or the Standby button on the remote control to turn the ERC-4 On.
•
If the ERC-4 is powered off (nothing is lit), turn the ERC-4 On (into Standby mode) using the
rear panel Power switch, then press the Standby button on the front panel or the remote
control to turn the ERC-4 fully On.
•
Press the Open button to open the CD Loading Tray (to eject the disc).
•
Gently remove the disc.
Note: It is acceptable to press the Open button while a disc is playing; the ERC-4 will
automatically stop playing, then open the CD Loading Tray.
