REPEAT PLAYBACK

The REPEAT button on the remote control allows the repeated playback of either one track or all tracks on the disc.

By pressing the REPEAT button once, only the current track is repeated, and the display shows “repeat track”.

If the REPEAT button is pressed a second time, “repeat disc” is displayed instead. The entire disc can then be repeated.

Pressing REPEAT a third time cancels repeat mode.

A-B REPEAT PLAYBACK

“A-B repeat” provides the option of playing just a certain section of the disc over and over again.

Find the beginning of the required section either by listening, or using the display time as a guide.

When the desired starting point is reached, press button A / B on the remote control.

The display will show “repeat a -”.

When the disc has reached the end of the required section, press the A-Bbutton again. “repeat a - b” will now appear in the display, and the unit continuously plays the selected part of the disc.

To cancel A-B repeat mode, press A/B on the remote control.

SPECIAL FEATURES

SHUFFLE PLAYBACK

The SHUFFLE feature allows tracks on the discs to be played in random sequence rather than the normal consecutive order. Tracks are also played in a different order each time the disc is restarted, or another disc loaded.

This function is obtained by pressing SHUFFLE on the remote control with the unit either stopped or playing. The word “shuffle disc” in the display indicates that the function has been activated.

If the X-RAY V 3 is already playing, play will continue in random order until all tracks on the disc have been played.

Shuffle play is cancelled by pressing the SHUFFLE button a second time. The unit resumes normal play function, continuing to the end of the disc in normal order starting from wherever it was left by the previous random selection.

From stop mode, pressing PLAY/PAUSE also begins shuffle play.

If REPEAT is then pressed whilst in shuffle mode, a repeat shuffle function is obtained :

Pressing >> selects the next track in ran- dom order.
