CDS3
5 Installation and Operation
The CDS3 CD Player can only be operated from a Naim XPS Power Supply. Connection of
the power supply is illustrated in Diagram 6.2
The CDS3 should be installed on a dedicated equipment stand intended for the purpose.
To improve sound quality the player has hard metallic feet which may blemish any
delicate surface on which it is placed. Do not stand the player directly on top of another
item of Naim Audio equipment. Care should be taken to ensure that the player is level.
Transit screws on the underside of the CDS3 case and beneath its transport lid should
be removed before use and must be replaced if the unit is to be moved or re-packed
and shipped. The transit screw locations are illustrated in Section 7. The transit screws
must not be used in any other Naim product. Do not invert the player once the transit
screws are removed.
5.1 Disc Loading
Disc loading is illustrated in
disc lift the transport lid from the front 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
identify the correct puck for the CDS3.
If an HDCD® encoded compact disc is loaded the CDS3 will
automatically recognise and decode it. The display will read
HDCD for a few seconds after play is pressed.
5.2 Player Controls
previous:
With a disc loaded but not playing, the previous
button searches the disc contents backwards, either
one track at a time, or sequentially if the button
is held. While a disc is in play, the previous button
searches the table of contents backwards. Play
resumes with the selected track when the button is
released.
next:
The next button operates in the same way as the
previous button, but moving forwards through the
disc instead of backwards.
stop:
Stops play and resets the player to its start
condition. Pressing and holding stop will clear
any programmed play order, or, if no play order is
programmed, return the player display to its default
state (track indication).
play:
Plays a disc from track one unless another track has
been selected. Play operated while a track is playing
will re-start the track.
pause:
Pauses play. Pressing pause a second time will
resume replay. If play is selected while the player
is paused, replay will resume at the start of the
paused track when pause is deselected. The pause
button indicator will flash when pause is selected.

If the CDS3 is paused for more than 10 minutes it will enter a
"static pause" mode in which the transport laser deactivates and
the disc stops spinning - so reducing wear on the transport. The
player can be left in static pause indefinitely. The pause button
indicator will illuminate fully rather than flash when the player is
in static pause mode. Pressing the pause button will deselect
static pause. Replay will resume at the pause point.
display:
Scrolls through the display options of "track", "time"
and display off.
All CD control functions are duplicated on the

5.4 Player Display and Indicators
The alphanumeric display indicates track and index numbers,
time in minutes and seconds, or various system messages
(Error, Track programming info, etc). The full stop on the right of
the display window illuminates when the player receives a signal
from the remote handset. If a track play list is programmed the
time displayed reflects the duration of the program. Above the
display are four indicators.
HDCD:
Illuminates to show that an HDCD encoded disc
is playing.
time:
Illuminates to indicate display of total disc time
or elapsed time of track being played.
repeat:
Illuminates to show that repeat has been
selected from the remote handset.
