NOTES ABOUT DISCS
Discs playable with this unit
This compact disc player is designed only for playing
compact discs bearing the marks shown below. Never
attempt to load any other type of disc into the unit. The unit
will also play 8-cm (3-inch) compact discs.
.... Compact discs (digital audio)
The most popular discs for commercially
available audio CDs.
.... CD-RW (ReWritable) digital audio
discs
The discs repeatedly recordable by using
CD recorders for audio recording.
Recorded CD-RW discs can be played
only with CD players which have the
ability to play CD-RW discs.
Notes
● Be sure to use a CD-RW disc made by
a reliable manufacture.
● Be sure to use a CD-RW disc which
has at least one of the following
phrases on the disc or disc case.
FOR CONSUMER
FOR CONSUMER USE
FOR MUSIC USE ONLY
.... CD-TEXT discs
The discs recorded with text data such as
album titles, track titles and artist names.
These discs can be played with ordinary
CD players, however, the text data can be
displayed only with CD players which
have the ability to display such data.
CDX-596 can display text data
recorded on CD-TEXT discs.
Note
This compact disc player may not be able to play some
CD-RW discs or discs on which recording was not made
correctly.
To prevent a malfunction of this unit:
● Do not use any nonstandard shaped
disc (heart etc.) available on the
market because it might damage the
unit.
● Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or paste on it. If
you use such a disc, a disc may get stuck in the unit,
or damage to the unit may result.
Notes about handling compact discs
● Always handle the disc with care so that its surface is not
scratched.
● Compact discs are not subjected to wear during play, but
damage to the disc surface when the disc is being
handled can adversely affect the disc’s play.
● Be sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool when
writing on the label side of the disc. Do not use a ball-
point pen, pencil, or other hard-tipped writing tool, as
these may damage the disc and may adversely affect the
disc’s play.
● Do not warp discs.
● When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from
the unit and store in an appropriate case.
● When removing or storing a disc, be careful not to
scratch the playing surface.
● Compact discs are not affected by small particles of dust
or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even so they
should be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth.
Do not wipe with a circular motion; wipe straight outward
from the center.
● Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of
disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or
any other chemical-based liquid because such
substances might irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
● Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature
or high humidity for a long period of time because these
might warp or otherwise damage the disc.
No!
To play an 8-cm (3-inch) CD
Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not
put a normal (12-cm/5-inch) CD on top of an 8-cm CD.

NOTES ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL
Battery installation
1. Turn the remote control over and remove the battery
compartment cover by sliding it in the direction of the
arrow.
2. Insert the batteries (AA, R6, UM-3 type) according to the
polarity markings on the inside of the battery
compartment.
3. Close the battery compartment cover.
Battery replacement
If you notice that the remote control must be used closer to
the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both
batteries with new ones.
Notes
● Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement.
● Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside
the battery compartment.)
● Remove the batteries if the remote control will not be used for
an extended period of time.
● If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid touching
the leaked material or letting it come in contact with clothing,
etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before
installing new batteries.
Remote control operation range
Notes
● There should be no large obstacles between the remote control
and the main unit.
● If the remote control sensor is directly illuminated by strong
lighting (especially an inverter type fluorescent lamp etc.), the
remote control might not work properly. In this case,
reposition the main unit to avoid direct lighting.

Notes
● Not all discs have index numbers. In addition, among those

● The index system is a method for sub-dividing tracks into
smaller divisions for easier location of those parts. The liner
notes contained in the disc case usually tell that such index
numbers are included with the mark.
● If an index number is selected that is higher than any index
number on that disc, play will start from the last index point on
the disc.
● For some discs, play may begin slightly prior to the actual
designated index point.
● If the disc has no encoded index points, play will begin from
the beginning of the selected track.
● The index number can be designated only while “INDEX” is
illuminated.
