• stop/dwr ( )

Press to stop play. The same button will operate the drawer if stopping the disc has no relevance (e.g., if it is already stopped, or if there is no disc inside the Nº390S).

• pause ( )

Press to pause play in the current location. If left in pause mode for more than two minutes, the Nº390S will enter extended pause mode, shutting down both the laser and the drive motors to enhance longevity and reliability. Upon pressing pause a second time, the disc will spin up and begin playing from the location where it had been paused.

3. A/B repeat button

The Nº390S may be set to repeat any contiguous segment of a disc. Press once to establish a beginning point (point A) for an endless playback loop. The display will flash the letter B to indicate that it is ready to accept your designated ending point (point B). (Note that A must precede B on the disc.) Once this has been done, the Nº390S will repeat the segment of the disc between points A and B until you press stop or A-Bagain.

4. mode buttons

31

Using these three buttons, either of two Nº390S functions can be controlled from the remote control:

•PROGRAM (for creating custom play lists)

•TIMES (for selecting a time indication)

Either of these modes may be accessed by repeatedly pressing the mode button, thereby toggling back and forth between the options.

Once a particular mode is chosen, pressing the mode + and mode – buttons “increases” or “decreases” that particular function. For example, mode + would either: add a track to a play list; or advance to the next time indication.

Along with mode + and mode –, the mode button is also used to change the option settings. (See Special Functions.)
