Figure 1: MOON CD-1 Front panel

The front panel will look similar to Figure 1 (above). The large digital display window indicates the track number of the
compact disc currently playing (or the total number of tracks in stop mode) and time information.

The “Standby” button disengages the transport mechanism from the rest of the CD-1’s circuitry and turns off the digital
display. However, when in “Standby” mode, all digital and analog audio circuitry remains powered up to help maintain
optimal performance. The blue LED on the CD-1 will no longer be illuminated when the player is in “Standby” mode.

On the left side of the display window, from top to bottom, are four (4) red indicator LED’s that will illuminate as follows
(each of these functions is described in detail in “Remote Control Operation” section beginning on page 10):

‘Program’ -

when Program mode is engaged

‘Repeat’ -

Both LED’s - when Repeat mode is engaged for the entire compact disc

Lower LED only - when Repeat mode is engaged for one (1) specific track

‘Random’ -

when “Random” play mode is engaged


To load a compact disc into the CD-1, press S, put the CD in the drawer with the label side facing up and press S again to
close the drawer. When a CD is first loaded into the CD-1, the total number of tracks, and total playing time will appear in
the display. In the event that you load a CD that contains no musical tracks (i.e. data only), the word ‘DATA’ will appear in the
display window. As well, if you load a disc that is not compatible with the CD-1 (i.e. SACD, DVD-A, etc), the phrase ‘NO DISC’
will appear in the display window.

Press X to begin playing a compact disc. Pressing while a disc is already playing results in the current track being paused;

Press either X or again to resume playing the disc.

Press to search backward or to search forward through the compact disc’s tracks. When you’ve located the track

number, press X to begin playing that track. In the event that you initiate a forward or backward track change while a disc is
already playing, it will automatically start playing the track you select; you need not press X.

Press and hold to search backward through the current track; Press and hold to search forward through current track.

Press „ to stop the compact disc from playing. The laser will return to the start position of the disc. To open the drawer and
remove the compact disc, press S.
