How to open top of K-01X
 
I have a CD that got stuck in the player and won't come out.

Does anyone know how to Take the top off.

I took the 3 screws at the back off, and the lid on slides back a couple of millimeters and stops. Not sure if you have to lift the front up.

Try powering down the player, let it sit a minute and start it back up. That may allow drawer to open, cd to settle in tray, etc... due to transport movement during selfcheck/power up.

Taking the top off will not help you. If powering the unit down/up as Mark suggested, and resetting it doesn’t allow the drawer to open, it will more than likely require service.

The K-01x transport is very solidly built, and employs a disc clamp once in the closed position.

Try my suggestion 2 or 3 times if need be. After that, it's a service item if it does not work. Another trick is to hit the open button and quickly hit it again about a second later.

No luck,

It's out of warranty, so not sure who would service these in Canada.

Update:

Well, got very lucky.

Found a Service center in my city(non-esoteric) and they were able to
open it up and manually crank out the disk. The disk was pretty scratched,
but the player works fine after that.

If it happened once, it may happen again. Be careful.
