CUES:

FLY CUE:

The FLY CUE function lets you set cues “on the fly” with the press of a button. Press FLY CUE when the disc reaches the musical location you wish to make your cue or start point. The cue point is now programmed. Press CUE to return to the cue point. Press PLAY/PAUSE and the unit instantly starts from this pre-programmed spot.

PLAY CUE:

1.To pre-program a cue point (the spot on a CD at which you want play to start) select the proper track and push PLAY/PAUSE so the unit enters the PLAY mode. (PLAY/PAUSE LED glows green).

When the CD reaches the approximate musical spot you wish to make your cue, push PLAY/PAUSE so the unit enters the PAUSE mode (PLAY/ PAUSE LED blinks). Move the SEARCH DIAL forward or in reverse until the precise spot at which you want CD play to begin is located. Push PLAY/PAUSE. The cue point is now programmed. Press CUE to return to this pre-programmed cue point at any time. Push PLAY/PAUSE and the unit will instantly play from the pre-selected spot.

2.To fine tune your pre-programmed cue point, push PLAY/PAUSE so the unit enters the PLAY mode. Push the CUE button and the CD will return to the cue point you programmed in step #1 and begin play from that point. If you decide this cue or starting point is okay, leave the unit alone until you are ready to play.

3.If, however, the selected spot is not exactly where you want it, push the CUE button while the CD is playing and the disc will return to the pre- programmed cue point. Locate the exact spot on the CD at which you want play to start by turning the SEARCH DIAL. Push PLAY/PAUSE to pre-program this new cue point. Press the CUE button to pause play at the new cue point. Push PLAY/PAUSE at any time and the unit will play from the pre-selected spot.

NOTE: DURING FINE TUNING THERE WILL BE A STUTTER EFFECT (TO HELP YOU FIND THE BEAT). THE STUTTERING EFFECT WILL END WHEN YOU PRESS THE PLAY/PAUSE (11) TO SAVE THE CUE POINT.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

•If the disk will not play, check to see if the disc was loaded correctly (label side up). Also check the disc for excessive dirt, scratches, etc.

•If the disc turns but there is no sound, check the cable connections. If they are okay, check your amplifier or receiver.

•If the CD skips, check the CD for dirt or scratches. Do not assume that the CD player is defective. Many CDs are recorded out of spec and will skip on most or all CD players. Before sending the unit in for repair, try playing a CD that you are sure plays properly.
