In the following circumstances, the music search function may be

unable to properly detect blanks between selections; this is not,

however, a sign of unit malfunction.

•When using a tape with blanks between selections less than 4 seconds long.

•When listening to tapes with long low-level intervals, like clas- sical music, or with sound breaks several seconds long within selections.

•When listening to recorded conferences or talk shows, where sound is intermittent.

•When using tapes with noise in the blanks between selections.

How selections are counted

When starting the music search operation from the middle of a selec-

tion and specifying "1 st previous selection," playback will return
