Introduction
‘Basic operation’ explains how to play a DVD, CD or other type
of disc, including the use of the CR-314 remote control.
More sophisticated features – such as special playback modes
and programming jumps and playback sequences – are
described in the ‘Advanced features’ section.
Front panel controls
Switching on
Switch the unit on by pressing the POWER button. The status
LED glows green when the unit is powered up and red when in
standby mode (standby is operated from the remote control).
Note that the remote control sensor is located on the right hand
side of the display window. Do not obstruct this or the remote
will not work.
HDCD indicator
This LED is located on the left of the display and lights green to
indicate when HDCD (High Denition Compatible Digital) material
is playing from suitably recorded audio CDs.
Playing a disc
Loading a disc
Press LOAD on the front panel (or OPEN on the handset) and
place the disc on the tray, with the playback side facing down.
Some discs are double sided, in which case the side labelled
‘side A’ should face up, to access side A.
Press LOAD on the front panel to close the tray. The disc loads
after a pause of a few seconds.
Playing a disc
Most DVDs begin playing automatically, but some titles begin by
displaying a menu. Select the menu item ‘Play movie’ (or similar)
using the cursor pad, then press OK to start playback.
For discs that do not play automatically (including CDs and
VCDs), press PLAY.
Note that when playing DVDs, the drive mechanism operates
at much higher speeds compared to CDs and so may produce
more noise when loading and playing initial chapters.
Fast play
Press or on the front panel or remote control to play fast
forward or backwards. For DVDs, VCDs and CDs the following
speeds for fast playback are available: x2, x4, x8, x20, x60 and
x100. Press the button repeatedly to cycle through the different
speeds. To resume normal playback speed, press PLAY.
Fast playback is not available for MP3 discs.
Skipping chapters/tracks
To skip chapters (or tracks on a CD), press or .
When skipping back, the rst button press takes you to the
beginning of the current chapter. Pressing the button again
takes you to the start of the previous chapter.
Note that it is common for Video CDs to have only one track.
Pausing playback
Press PAUSE on the front panel or on the remote control to
pause playback. To resume playback, press PLAY on the front
panel or on the handset.
Stopping playback
Press the STOP button on the front panel or on the remote
control to stop playback.
When playing a DVD, pressing STOP once performs a ‘resume
stop’. If you now press PLAY, playback resumes from the point
it was stopped.
If you press STOP twice, this is a ‘complete stop’, and playback
resumes from the beginning of the disc.
Front panel menu navigation
Should you need to navigate a disc or title menu from the front
panel, use PAUSE for ‘up’, STOP for ‘down’ , for ‘right’, for
‘left’ and PLAY for ‘OK’.
