LOADING AND PLAYING COMPACT DISCS

To load a disc, press OPEN/CLOSE button to gain
access to the tray.
Display will show “OPEN”

When the tray is fully extended, gently place the disc,
with the label facing upwards, centrally into the
indentation and press the OPEN/CLOSE button again so
the displays show “CLOSE”.


The unit will scan the contents of the disc. After a short
delay, the display windows then show the total number
of tracks available on the CD, and total playing time. In
the following example there are 7 tracks, lasting a total
of 41 minutes 56 seconds


PAUSE
Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button on the front or top
panel whilst a disc is playing pauses playback of the
disc. PAUSE appears in the display windows instead of
PLAY. The disc will continue spinning, but the track
does not advance and the CD's output is muted.

Pressing PLAY/PAUSE again resumes playback from
the same place.

PAUSE (Remote control)
On the remote control, PLAY and PAUSE buttons have
separate functions at each end of the same button.
Pressing PLAY will only control disc play, and Pressing
PAUSE will not resume play. Note that if the disc is
already playing, pressing the PLAY button reverts to the
beginning of the current track.

STOP
Playback can be stopped at any time by pressing the
STOP button once. On the remote control, press either
end of the button, not the middle part. If mains power to
the unit is switched on with a disc already loaded, it will
automatically search for the disc.

TRACK SELECTION (Remote control)
Simply press the PLAY button to start a CD playing
from the first track.
Alternatively, a specific track can be selected directly by
pressing one of the ten track number buttons grouped in
the centre-section of the remote control. The chosen
track then plays after a short delay of about 5 seconds.
To play a track number with two digits, press the second
digit button on the remote control within this delay
period, example for track 17:
Press 1:

Press 7 within about 5 seconds:

After a small pause, machine plays selected track:

If a track number is chosen which is not available on the
disc, for example pressing button number 9 if the CD
has only 7 tracks, an INVALID TRACK message is
briefly displayed (along with elapsed time of last track
played).The display then indicates STOP, and shows the
number of tracks available on the CD and total playing
time, as in the above example.

DISC PLAY
If PLAY/PAUSE is pressed, the unit will begin playing
from track 1, confirmed by the word PLAY appearing
on the left of the display, with 1 in the centre and
elapsed time on the right.

When all tracks on the CD have been played, the display
shows STOP and total number of tracks on the disc.

TRACK SELECTION
To change track, the track skip buttons PREVIOUS and
NEXT on the front panel can be pressed to jump
forwards or backwards one track in either direction.
Corresponding TRACK buttons on the remote control
are marked |<< and >>|.
If the unit has stopped playing, a specific track can be
accessed directly by pressing either PREVIOUS or
NEXT to obtain the required track number, then
pressing PLAY/PAUSE.
