User manual NAD 522

[. . . ] This player does not display Index numbers. Time Normally this display shows the time elapsed since the beginning of the current track. Using the TIME button you can switch the display to show the playing time remaining to the end of the disc. When you load a different disc and use the OPEN button to close the disc drawer, the display shows the number of tracks and the total playing time of all the tracks on the disc. [. . . ] During play, press this button to stop playback temporarily, keeping the laser at its current position on the disc. To resume playback at the exact point where it stopped, press PLAY/PAUSE again. If you don't want to resume play at the same point, you may use the SKIP and SCAN controls to cue the pickup to a different starting point before pressing PLAY again. The TIME button has two modes, as follows: TIME: the elapsed time since the beginning of the current track, in minutes and seconds. (This is the `default' setting, selected automatically when the player is turned on. ) REMAIN (track number blank): the total playing time that remains until the end of the disc and the total number of remaining tracks (including the current track). During program play the remaining time in the program is shown. This button stops play, cancels any repeat-play cycle, and re-sets the pickup to the beginning of the disc. The display reverts to showing the number of tracks and total playing time on the disc. Press the Repeat button once to select the REPEAT ONE mode, in which only the current track is repeated over and over again. Pressing the Repeat button once again selects the REPEAT ALL mode, in which the entire disc is played from beginning to end, over and over again. Press the Repeat button a third time to cancel the repeat cycle and return to normal operation. Press RANDOM either from the Stop or the Play mode and the 522 will play the tracks on the CD in random order until all the tracks have been played. Press RANDOM button again to cancel Random play and return the 522 to the normal Play mode. This button works only while the player is in PLAY or PAUSE. After a STOP command, or after loading a new disc, you must press PLAY before the scan circuit will work. If the scan is initiated while the player is in PAUSE the scan is silent, approximately 15-20 times faster than playing speed. If the scan is initiated during PLAY it is much slower (approximately three times playing speed), and the music will be heard in fragmentary form at reduced volume as the player scans through it. Use this `audible scan' to cue the player precisely to the spot where you want to resume play. If you scan back to the beginning of the disc while playing Track 1, the player automatically reverts to normal playback. If you scan forward to the end of the disc while playing the final track, the scan will stop and the Time display will show the table of contents. SKIP BACK The SKIP button causes the laser to jump backward to the beginning of each numbered track on the disc. [. . . ] To remove the disc, press the hub with a finger to release the disc, then lift it out by gripping its edges between the fingers and thumb. To replace the disc in the case, simply align its center hole with the hub and press the disc onto the hub. CLEANING DISCS Soiled discs may be cleaned by wiping with a soft cloth, either dry or moistened with water. Do NOT use conventional LP record-cleaning products (cleaning solutions, sprays, treated cloths, or antistatic preparations), nor any kind of chemical solvent (alcohol, benzene, et al). [. . . ]
