Track search

Use the MULTI DIAL (or the SKIP keys on the remote control unit) to jump forward or backward by one track at a time, as shown on the display.

The track number indicators at the bottom of the dis- play shows the selected track (the lit indicator at the left of the row of indicators).

It is also possible to use the number keys on the remote control unit to jump directly to a particular track:
