KW250S CD SPECIAL FEATURES

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

PLAY 1	0:12

If the REPEAT button is pressed a second time, “repeat disc” is displayed instead, and the entire disc is then played repeatedly.

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

PLAY 1	0:34

When the disc has reached the end of the required section, press the A / B button again, to display

and the unit continuously plays the selected part of the disc in this case, the segment of track 1 from 34 seconds to 1 minute 55 seconds.

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

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. If the KW250S 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 random order.

SCAN INTRODUCTION

The scan-introduction function allows play back of just the start of each track on the disc, for instance to locate a preferred track by ear.

Press INTRO on the remote control, and if the player has stopped, the display will show

STOP 74 scan intro

The first ten seconds (approximately) of each track on the CD can then be played in sequence by pressing either PLAY/PAUSE on the front panel, or PLAY on the remote control.

Press INTRO again to cancel introduction search mode. If INTRO mode is cancelled while the KW250S is still playing, the remainder of the entire disc will be played.

PROGRAMMED PLAY

The built-in program memory allows you to store up to 25 track numbers and then play them back in the held order. Each track is stored as a “step” in the program.

With the CD loaded and the player stopped, first press PROGRAM on the remote control. The following is then displayed :

STOP 74

program 1 track 0

On the remote control, press the numeric button of the track number corresponding to the first track you wish to store (number 3 for example).

That track number will now appear in the display:

STOP 74

program 1 track 3

Press PROGRAM again on the remote control - the next program step is selected, (prog 2) and the track number reverts to 0 ready for a new entry.

STOP 74
