Notes

Not all discs have index numbers. In addition, among those discs which have index numbers, not all discs necessarily have more than one index number.

The index system is a method for sub-dividing tracks into smaller divisions for easier location of those parts. The liner notes contained in the disc case usually tell that such index

numbers are included with the mark.

If an index number is selected that is higher than any index number on that disc, play will start from the last index point on the disc.

For some discs, play may begin slightly prior to the actual designated index point.

If the disc has no encoded index points, play will begin from the beginning of the selected track.

The index number can be designated only while “INDEX” is illuminated.
