Microphone Jack

To record using a dynamic microphone, plug into the 3.5 mm jack (29) on the rear of the cabinet. A 2.5 mm jack is also provided 
for use with Califone model 4805AV microphone with remote Start/Stop.

Remote Sensor 

A sensor is built into the 2455AV-02 for use with the RC-2400 remote control. 

RC-2400 Remote Control

•  The RC 2400 operates most functions available on the boombox controls. It does not, however, function with some 
   of the tape operations.

INTRO

 One feature added to the remote is the Intro function. This feature will give a preview of each track for 10 seconds. 

Press the ‘PLAY’ button while in the CD mode, then press the ‘INTRO’ button. Press the ‘INTRO’ button again to resume normal 
play. If the ‘INTRO’ button is not pushed a second time, the preview will continue through the last track. Pushing ‘PLAY’, ‘PAUSE’ 
or ‘STOP’ will not disengage the Intro function.

MUTE

  Mute is another feature added to the remote. It works with tape, AM/FM and CD functions.

10+

 This button allows you to jump forward a number of tracks rather than use the scan forward feature. From stop, pause or 

play, pushing the 10+ button once will show a 1 and a flashing –(dash) see 1-. To jump to track 15 enter 5. To go to track 23 from 
track 6 press 10+ twice and see 2-. Enter 3 and jump to track 23.
