Programming a Sequence While a CD is Playing

While the CD changer is playing, you can program a sequence of tracks, but not an entire CD. Press PGM during play, then select the CD and track using the remote control’s number buttons and DISC SET/TRACK SET, and press PGM. When the current track finishes playing or you press , programmed play starts.

Or, you can store the track currently being played directly into memory. While the track is playing, press PGM once to enter the program mode, then press PGM again to store the current track. You might find this feature convenient to use along with hi-lite scan.

Note: You cannot erase a selection that is currently playing or that has already played.

Clearing a Programmed Sequence

Turning off the CD changer does not clear the programmed sequence. To clear the sequence, do any of the following:

Press when the CD is stopped.

Start best selection play.

Select ALL, SINGLE, CUSTOM, previous scan, or play the CD in the sin- gle play slot while programming a sequence.

Storing a Pause within a Programmed Sequence for Recording to Cassette

When you record a programmed sequence onto a cassette tape, you can pro- gram a pause to occur after the last selection you plan to record on the first side of the tape (so you can turn the tape over).

To store a pause, press on the remote in Step 3 of “Programming a Sequence” on Page 14. PA appears on the display.

During play, when the CD changer pauses and displays /, turn over the tape and press to resume recording.
