Programming the track order

Programming the track order means telling the player precisely which tracks, and in what order, you want played. You can program a playlist of up to 24 tracks, playing tracks more than once if you like.

The playlist you program applies only to the disc in the player at the time: as soon as you eject that disc the playlist is lost.

1Make sure the player is stopped, then press PROGRAM.

The PGM indicator lights and the display prompts you to enter the first track in the program:

PGM

As you program tracks, the total running time of the program is displayed here.

2Enter the track numbers in the order you want them played.

There are three ways to enter track numbers:

Using the number buttons

For track numbers 1 to 10, use the corresponding number button.

For track numbers over 10, press the >10 button, then enter the track number. For example, to select track 28:

A B C T U V

>10 2 8

Using the track skip buttons

Use the 4and ¢buttons to select a track; press PROGRAM to enter it into the playlist.

Using the jog dial

Turn the jog dial to select a track; push to enter it into the playlist.

3Press 3 (6 on the front panel) to start playback.

You must press PROGRAM if you want to enter another track after you have started playback.
