Differences by Model
This instruction manual covers the CDP-C745 and CDP-C545.
Their performance is identical except for the following:
* The CDP-C745 has the DSP, level file and DSP file functions.
* The CDP-C745 comes with the remote commander RM-D745. The
CDP-C545 comes with the RM-D545.
* The illustrations in this manual are of the CDP-C745,
Convention
This indicates a function operated only from the main unit.
Za | This indicates a function operated only from the remote
В commander.
Safety
* Should any solid or liquid object enter the cabinet, unplug the unit
and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
* Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for an
extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the
plug. Never pull on the cord itself. The unit is not disconnected
from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
* The AC power cord must be changed only at a qualified service
shop.
* As the laser beam used in this unit is harmful to the eyes, do not
attempt to disassemble the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified
personnel only.
Operation
* Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion with no
audio signals or very low level inputs. If you do, the speakers may
be damaged when a peak level portion is played.
The disc tray
e If the disc tray does not close properly and slides out again,
reinsert the discs.
* Be careful not to pinch your fingers between the disc tray and the
unit.
* Place only one disc in a disc compartment at a time.
* When the disc tray is open, do not press down on it forcibly, nor
place a heavy object on it.
Moisture condensation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is
placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens
inside the unit. Should this occur, the unit will not operate. Remove
the disc and leave the unit turned on for about an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
Maintenance
Cleaning your player
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of
abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
* Do not stick paper or tape
on the disc.
* Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such as
hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as the
heat may cause the disc to warp.
* After playing, store the disc in its case.
* When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a
cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center
out. Do not use solvents such as benzine,
thinner, commercially available cleaners or
anti-static spray intended for analog discs.
Notes on handling discs

Digital Signal Processing
(CDP-C745 only)
You can listen to the selections with five
acoustic atmospheres which are reproduced
by the Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
circuitry incorporated wath the CDP-C743.
These atmospheres are produced by a
digital processing technique that involves
simulating reflected and reverberated
sound effects and digitally compensated
frequency response.
The selected DSI made can be stored in the
memory of the plaver as a custom tile (page
In.
You can choose the sound effect from the
following DSP modes.
DSP mode Characteristic
HALL. Reproduces the acoustics of
а 2.000 seat capacity concert
hall.
CHURCH Reproduces the acoustics of
a church with sohd walls,
stained glass windows, and

About the Sound Effect
The sound in a place such as a concert hall
or 2 movie theater consists of direct sound,
early reflecting, and reverberation. The
acoustic quality of a room depends on how
these three sounds are reproduced in the
room. You can estimate the size and the
type of a room by listening to the difference
in these three sounds.
