SPECIAL FEATURES

SKIP PLAY

To skip forward or backward to a track, repeatedly press >>/>>| or |<</<<
while a CD is playing or pause until the desired track number appears.
The CD changer stops playing the current track, skips to the selected
track, then plays the track.

    NOTES:  If you use skip play while a CD is paused, the CD remains
            paused when the CD changer skips to the selected track.

            If you use skip play during random play, the CD changer cancels
            random play.  See "Random Play, on Faxback Doc. # 32151".

AUDIBLE SEARCH

To search for a particular section of a track, press and hold down >>/>>|
or |<</<< while a CD is playing or paused. The CD changer rapidly plays the
CD either forward or backward (like cuing or reviewing a cassette tape) and
automatically reduces the CD's volume.  When you hear the desired section,
release >>/>>| or |<</<< to resume normal play.

    NOTES:  If you use audible search while a CD is paused, the CD remains
            paused when you release >>/>>| or |<</<<.

            If you pass the end of the current CD while pressing and
            holding down >>/>>|, the CD changer advances to the beginning
            of Track 1 on the next CD.

            If you reach the beginning of the current CD while pressing
            and holding down |<</<<, the CD changer pauses at the beginning
            of Track 1 on the current CD.

            If you use audible search during random play, the CD changer
            cancels random play.  See "Random Play, on Faxback
            Doc. # 32151".
