CD - BASIC OPERATION
STOP
Playback can be stopped at any time by
pressing the
STOP
button once.
TRACK SELECTION
To change track, the track skip buttons
NEXT
and
PREVIOUS
can be pressed
to jump forwards or backwards one track
in either direction. Note that a single press
of the
PREVIOUS
button restarts play-
back at the beginning of the current track.
A double-press is needed to jump back to
the previous track. Corresponding
TRACK
buttons on the remote control are
also marked
|<<
and
>>|
. If either button
is held down, the CD Pre will quickly step
through the available tracks in the required
direction.
TRACK SELECTION (Remote control)
A specific track can be selected directly by
pressing the required track number button
on the remote control. The chosen track
then plays immediately.
To play a track number with two digits,
press the
10+
button on the remote control
followed by the first digit, then the second
digit. For example, to obtain track 27,
press
10+
, then
2
, then
7
.
SEARCH
The SEARCH buttons can be used to fast-
forward or fast-rewind during playback in
a similar way to a video or tape cassette
player. This permits location of particular
passages at high speed with the audio play-
back of the CD still active.
Pressing the forward-search button (
>>
)
fast winds forwards whilst the search back-
wards button (
<<
) fast winds backwards.
As the unit searches through a track, the
track time remaining display (far right dig-
its) will be seen to advance rapidly in the
required direction. For both directions the
unit will return to normal playback when
the button is released.
DISPLAYING PLAYBACK TIME
There are three playback time display
modes accessed progressively by pushing
the
TIME
button on the remote control.
The default mode (e.g. after switch on)
shown below indicates the elapsed time for
the currently playing track (2 minutes
34 seconds in this example):
Pushing the
TIME
button once changes
the display to show the remaining time for
the current track (4 minutes 29 seconds in
this example):
Pushing the
TIME
button again changes
the display to show the remaining time for
the whole disc (33 mins 54 secs) below:
(Note: Track and Index displays are not
shown in this mode).
A third press of the
TIME
button will now
bring the display back to the original
(elapsed track time) mode.
