Skipping to Beginning of Current Track or to Previous Tracks
(Rewind DPSS):
Press the 4button.
Press once to rewind to the beginning of the current track,
twice to rewind to the beginning of the previous track, and so
forth.
You can skip up to nine tracks.
Playback is continued after the tape is rewind by the indicated

During the first five seconds of each track, the previous track is
considered the "current" track. If you press the 4button
during that period, the tape rewinds to the beginning of the
previous track and not the one you are listening to.
The DPSS function "knows" where a track begins by detecting
the blank space preceding it (the space between tracks).
However, when the blank space lasts for less than four seconds
or contains noise, DPSS may not operate correctly. Furthermore,
quiet intervals within a song are detected as "blank spaces" if
they last for four seconds or more.
Canceling DPSS While It is Operating:
Press the 38button.
