1 − Introduction  
Do not open the sealed cabinet as this might result in  
damage to the circuitry or electrical shocks. If a foreign  
object should get inside the unit, contact your supplier  
or service agency.  
to match your local supply. If you are in any doubt in  
this matter, consult an electrician.  
NOTE  
When removing the power plug from the wall outlet,  
always pull directory on the plug, never yank the cord.  
When transporting the unit, always use the origi-  
nal packing materials. For this reason, we strongly  
recommend that you save all the packing materials  
that came with the CD-160MKII, in case you need to  
transport it in the future.  
To keep the laser pickup clean, do not touch it and  
always close the disc tray.  
As the disc rotates at high speed during playback, do not  
lift or move the unit. Doing so may damage the disc or  
the laser assembly.  
In addition, when transporting the unit, you should  
tape the disc tray closed, using an adhesive tape  
that will not spoil the finish of the unit.  
The voltage selector on the rear panel is only available  
on units for the North American market. Please set this  
Beware of condensation  
If the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold to a  
warm place, or used after a sudden temperature change,  
there is a danger of condensation; vapor in the air could  
condense on the internal mechanism, making correct oper-  
ation impossible. To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the  
player sit for one or two hours at the new room temperature  
before using.  
Never use a stabilizer or printable discs  
Using commercially available CD stabilizers or printable  
recordable discs with this player will damage the mecha-  
nism and cause it to malfunction.  
NOTE  
Never use a disc that has had a stabilizer mounted to  
it. The residual adhesive may cause the disc to stick  
to the turntable of the CD-160MKll. If it sticks to the  
turntable, you will need a technician to get it out.  
About discs  
Conventional audio CDs bearing the COMPACT DISC  
DIGITAL AUDIO logo on the label:  
Copy-protected discs and other discs that do not  
conform to the CD standard may not play back cor-  
rectly in this player. If you use such discs in this unit,  
TEAC Corporation and its subsidiaries cannot be  
responsible for any consequences or guarantee the  
quality of reproduction. If you experience problems  
with such non-standard discs, you should contact  
the producers of the disc.  
Properly finalized CD-R and CD-RW discs.  
NOTE  
Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the  
condition of the recording, some CD-R/CD-RW discs  
may not be playable.  
TASCAM CD-160MKll  
 
 
1 − Introduction  
Handling of compact discs  
The CD-160MKII has been designed for the playback  
of CD-DA (standard audio) format discs and MP3 files  
recorded on the discs using the ISO9660 format: In addi  
tion to ordinary 5-inch and 3-inch CDs.  
Do not insert discs that have adhesive remaining from  
tape or stickers that have been removed. If they are  
inserted into the player, they could stick to the internal  
mechanism, requiring removal by a technician.  
-
Always place the compact discs in the trays with their  
label facing upward.  
Do not use cracked discs.  
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-circu  
lar promotional, etc. discs.  
-
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the center  
of the disc holder, then lift the disc out, holding it care  
fully by the edges.  
-
The CD-160MKll cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RW discs.  
CD-R and CD-RW discs are sensitive to the effects of  
heat and ultraviolet rays. It is important that they are not  
stored in a location where direct sunlight will fall on  
them, and which is away from sources of heat such as  
radiators or heat-generating electrical devices.  
Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions, ben  
zene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to clean  
-
CDs as they could damage the delicate playing surface.  
It may cause CDs to become unplayable.  
When labeling CD-R and CD-RW discs, always use a  
soft oil-based felt-tipped pen to write the information.  
Never use a ball-point or hard-tipped pen, as this may  
cause damage to the recorded side.  
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to avoid  
dirt as well as serious scratches that could cause the  
laser pickup to “skip.”  
Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (the non-  
label side). Grime and dust may cause skipping, so keep  
discs clean and store them in their cases when not being  
played. To clean the signal side of a disc, wipe gently with  
a soft dry cloth from the center towards the outside edge.  
If you are in any doubt as to the care and handling of a  
CD-R and CD-RW discs, read the precautions supplied  
with the disc, or contact the disc manufacturer directly.  
Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection sys  
-
tem, have been released form several record companies  
in an attempt to protect the copyright. Since some of  
these discs do not comply with the CD specifications,  
they may not be playable on the CD-160MKII.  
Keep discs away from direct sunlight, and places of  
high heat and humidity. If left in such places, warping  
could result.  
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the label side of the  
disc and do not use any protective coating spray.  
Use of the remote control unit  
Do not expose the infrared receiver (light receptive area  
on the front panel) to direct sunlight or intense light for  
extended periods of time. Long exposure to this light  
may result in failure of the remote control sensor.  
other devices that are turned on could be operated by its  
signal.  
If the range of remote operation becomes smaller, or  
commands do not always function properly, the batter-  
ies have become weak and should be replaced. Always  
replace both batteries with new batteries of the same  
type.  
When the remote control will not be used over one  
month, please remove the batteries to prevent the pos-  
sibility of battery acid leakage which could damage  
the unit. Should leakage occur, remove and discard the  
batteries, and wipe the battery case thoroughly with a  
cloth. Avoid getting the battery liquid on the skin. After  
cleaning, replace with new batteries.  
Point the remote control to the remote sensor on the  
main unit. Do not obstruct the path between the remote  
control and the remote sensor.  
The remote control functions by using an infrared light  
signal. When using the unit to control the CD-160MKII,
