IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1 Read these instructions.
14 Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as power-supply cord or plug is dam-
aged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the appara-
tus has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
2 Keep these instructions.
3 Heed all warnings.
4 Follow all instructions.
5 Do not use this apparatus near water.
6 Clean only with dry cloth.

Install in accordance with the manufactur-
er's instructions.
• Do not expose this apparatus to drips or
splashes.
• Do not place any objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, on the apparatus.
8 Do not install near any heat sources such
as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other
apparatus (including amplifiers) that pro-
duce heat.
• Do not install this apparatus in a confined
space such as a bookcase or similar unit.
9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized or grounding-type plug. A polar-
ized plug has two blades with one wider

two blades and a third grounding prong.
The wide blade or the third prong are pro-
vided for your safety. If the provided plug
does not fit into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.
• The apparatus draws nominal non-oper-
ating power from the AC outlet with its
POWER switch in the off position.
• The apparatus should be located close
enough to the AC outlet so that you can
easily grasp the power cord plug at any
time.
• An apparatus with Class I construction
shall be connected to an AC outlet with a
protective grounding connection.
10 Protect the power cord from being walked
on or pinched particularly at plugs, conve-
nience receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the apparatus.
11 Only use attachments/accessories speci-
fied by the manufacturer.
12 Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, brack-
et, or table specified by the manufacturer,
or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is
used, use caution when moving the cart/
apparatus combination to avoid injury from
tip-over.
13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods of
time.

TASCAM CD-DJ1
1- Introduction
Please use the CD-DJ1 only within its operating tem-
perature range of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F). Please
avoid use or storage in dusty or humid environments
because these conditions can cause malfunction.
• Avoid placing this unit on top of any heat-generat-
ing electrical device such as a power amplifier.
• Always use the supplied AC adapter (PS-PS5)
with the standard home electrical power out-
let. Use of other AC adapters may damage the
CD-DJ1.
To maintain top performance, and prolong operating
life, observe the following notes, precautions and
environmental conditions:
• Use the unit on a table or rack that is level and
sturdy.
• Avoid exposing it to extremes of temperature and
humidity and avoid mechanical shocks.
• Wipe dirt from the unit with a dry cloth. Never
use thinner, benzene or other solvents because
they may cause acrylic parts and coated surfaces
to dissolve, labels to be eroded or other damage.
• Keep the unit away from strong magnetic fields
(TV sets, computer monitors, large electric
motors, etc.).
• Relative humidity should be 30 to 90 percent.
• As the unit may become hot during operation,
always leave sufficient space above the unit for
ventilation. Do not operate this unit in a confined
space such as a bookcase, and do not put anything
on top of the unit.
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 operation impossible.
Power supply
Attach the DC plug of the supplied AC adapter to the
DC IN jack on the rear panel and connect the power
plug to a standard electrical power outlet.
Pressing the POWER switch on the rear panel lights
up the display. After a brief start-up screen, the home
screen will appear.
Sleep function
If playback is paused and the unit has not been used
for 30 minutes, the unit will automatically go to
sleep, stopping the CD mechanism and turning off
the backlight.

1- Introduction
Handling of compact discs
The CD-DJ1 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
addition to ordinary 12cm (5-inch) and 8cm (3-inch)
CDs, it can also play properly recorded CD-Rs and
CD-RWs.
•
•
•
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. Do not write on the disc with a ball-
point pen.
•
•
Always place the compact discs in the trays with
their label facing upward.
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.
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the
center of the disc holder, then lift the disc out,
holding it carefully by the edges.
•
•
Do not use cracked discs.
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-
circular promotional, etc. discs.
•
Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (the
non- label side). Grime and dust may cause skip-
ping, 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.
•
•
The CD-DJ1 cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RWs.
The unit may not be able to play some CD-Rs and
CD-RWs due to disc quality or recording conditions.
•
Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection
system, 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-DJ1.
•
•
Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions,
benzene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to
clean CDs as they could damage the delicate playing
surface. It may cause CDs to become unplayable.
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to
avoid serious scratches that could cause the laser
pickup to “skip.”

or paused to jump to the start of the currently select-
ed track. Press the µ SKIP key again to jump to the
start of the previous track.
Pressing a SKIP key when the CD is paused sets the

TASCAM CD-DJ1
4- Playback operations
When used with MP3 file discs, depending on the
Setup menu FOLDER setting, the SKIP keys cycle
through either all the tracks on the disc or only the
tracks in the currently selected folder. Regardless of
the FOLDER setting, however, pressing a SKIP (µ/
≤) key while holding down the SHIFT key skips
between folders.
Track search
Depending on the Setup menu SRCH KEY setting,
use either the JOG dial or the SEARCH (∆/˚)
keys to search tracks.
When the SRCH KEY setting is BEND, turn the JOG
dial during playback to search the track. Turn clock-
wise to search forward and counterclockwise to
search backward.
When the SRCH KEY setting is SRCH, hold down a
SEARCH (∆ or ˚) key while the CD is playing
or paused to search through the track. The ˚key
searches forward and the ∆ key searches backward.
Turning the JOG dial while the CD is paused allows
scrub playback.
Auto Cue
If the Auto Cue function is on when a track is select-
ed, the pause position will be set at the first moment
of sound rather than the start of the track. This
allows the music on the selected track to be heard
immediately when the PLAY/PAUSE key is pressed if
there is silence at the start of the track.
Turn this function on and off using the Setup menu
AUTO CUE item.
The A.CUE indicator appears on the display when the
Auto Cue function is on.
Auto Ready
When the Auto Ready function is on, after a track
finishes playing, playback will pause at the start of
the next track.
NOTE
If the Auto Cue function is also on, playback will
pause at the first moment of sound rather than
the start of the next track.
The A.RDY indicator appears on the display when the
Auto Ready function is on.
Turn this function on and off using the Setup menu
AUTO RDY item.
CD text data display
Press the TIME/ENTER/TITLE key while holding
down the SHIFT key to change the information dis-
played when using discs with CD text data.
