USING REPEAT PLAY

The system lets you continuously repeat a single track, all tracks on a CD, or an entire programmed sequence of tracks.

To continuously repeat a single track, press REPEAT once so the repeat indicator in front of the right digit of the track number flashes.

To continuously repeat all tracks on the CD, press REPEAT twice so the repeat indicator in front of the track number lights.

To continuously repeat an entire pro- grammed sequence, first program the tracks you want to play (see “Programming

Tracks”), press then REPEAT twice, so the repeat indicator lights.

To cancel repeat play during play, repeatedly press REPEAT until the indicator turns off. The CD player resumes normal play.

The repeat indicator remains lit after is pressed. To cancel repeat play when the CD is stopped, press again or REPEAT once.

PROGRAMMING TRACKS

You can program the system to play up to 16 tracks in any order you choose, and you can program the same track to play more than once.

4.Repeat Steps 2–3 to store up to 16 tracks.

Note: If you try to store more than 16 tracks, the 17th track is not stored and Pr flashes on the display.

5. Press to play the programmed tracks. The first programmed track num- ber appears and the play/pause indica- tor and the FM ST./PROG indicator lights. The CD begins to play starting with the first programmed track.

Reviewing a Programmed Sequence

To review a programmed sequence, with play stopped, press PROGRAM once (if you have stored all the tracks in the sequence). Otherwise, press PROGRAM twice. The FM ST./PROG indicator flashes and the track number of each stored track appears.

Erasing a Programmed Sequence

You can do any of the following to erase a programmed sequence:

Set FUNCTION to STD BY.TAPE or

RADIO.

Open the CD door with play stopped.

Press with play stopped.

Storing/Playing a Programmed Sequence

1.With a CD loaded but not playing, press PROGRAM. Pr flashes on the display and the FM ST./PROG indicator flashes.

2.Repeatedly press SKIP or SKIP

until the desired track number appears.

3.To store the selected track, press PRO- GRAM. Pr flashes on the display and the FM ST./PROG indicator flashes.

CD AND CD PLAYER TIPS

Even though a compact disc is durable, treat the CD surface with care.

Do not write on either side of the CD, particularly the non-label side. Signals are read from the non-label side.

Do not store CDs in high temperature, high-humidity locations. They might warp.

Keep CDs dry. A water drop can act as a lens and affect the laser beam’s focus.
