Skipping to Beginning of Current Track or to Previous Tracks (Rewind DPSS):

Press the 4 button.

Press once to rewind to the beginning of the current track, twice to rewind to the beginning of the previous track, and so forth.

•The DPSS function "knows" where a track begins by detecting the blank space preceding it (the space between tracks).
