See the CUE INSTRUCTIONS section for more information.

TRACK SKIP

: The TRACK SKIP (6) buttons let you select the

SEARCH BUTTONS

: The SEARCH (7) buttons are used to

move foward or reverse while in play mode. The SEARCH (7) buttons
are also used to accurately position the disc at the point where you
wish the track to start playing. This position on the track is memorized
as the cue point. See the CUE INSTRUCTIONS section for more info.

mode at the memorized cue point. Holding down the cue button
changes the cue function to preview (allowing you to hear the music

preset cue point. If a cue point is not memorized, pressing the CUE (8)
button will cause the unit to return to the beginning of that track.
