‘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.

Switch the unit on by pressing the 

 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.

This LED is located on the left of the display and lights green 
to indicate when HDCD (High Definition Compatible Digital) 
material is playing from suitably recorded audio CDs. 

Press 

on the front panel (or 

 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 

 on the front panel to close the tray. The disc loads 

after a pause of a few seconds.

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 

 to start playback.

For discs that do not play automatically (including CDs and 
VCDs), press 

.

Note that when playing DVDs, the drive mechanism operates at 
much higher speeds compared with CDs and so may produce 
more noise when loading and playing initial chapters. This is 
normal.
Layer change
Many DVD discs have two layers to increase the available play-
back time (these DVDs are identified as type DVD-9 or DVD-18). 
Often, there will be a short pause in the video and audio of 
about a second whenever the laser of the player refocuses 
from one layer to the next. 

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 

.

Fast playback is not available for MP3 discs.

To skip chapters (or tracks on a CD), press 

or

.

When skipping back, the first 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.

Press 

 on the front panel or   on the remote control to 

pause playback. To resume playback, press 

on the front 

panel or   on the handset.

Press the 

 button on the front panel or   on the remote 

control to stop playback.
When playing a DVD, pressing 

once performs a ‘resume 

stop’. If you now press 

, playback resumes from the point 

it was stopped. 
If you press 

twice, this is a ‘complete stop’, and playback 

resumes from the beginning of the disc.

Should you need to navigate a disc or title menu from the front 
panel, use 

 for ‘up’, 

 for ‘down’ ,   for ‘right’,

 for 

‘left’ and 

 for ‘OK’.
