erly set, plug the unit in and press the POWER (5) switch.
The unit will turn on. Pressing the POWER (5) switch a
second time will turn the unit off.
DISC IN SLOT: The DISC IN SLOT (6) is where the CD is
held. When a disc is in the slot the red LED bar will be
illuminated.
STOP/EJECT: Press STOP/EJECT (7) once to stop,
twice to eject, and hold down to eject the CD.
CUE: With the unit in the play mode, and after memorizing
the cue point, pressing the CUE (8) button will cause the
CD player to enter the pause mode at the memorized cue
point. Holding down the cue button changes the cue func-
tion to preview (allowing you to hear the music play from
the cue point) and releasing the cue button returns you to
the preset cue point.
PLAY/PAUSE: Each press of the PLAY/PAUSE (9) but-
ton causes the operation to change from play to pause or
from pause back to play. See the CUE INSTRUCTIONS
section for more information.
DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (10) shows the track numbers,
play mode, pause mode, and 3 different time displays.
These time displays are time elapsed on the track, time
remaining on the disc and time remaining on the track.
PLAYBACK DISPLAY: The PLAYBACK DISPLAY (11)
displays the time remaining to play and flashes slowly
when the track has 30 seconds left. The PLAYBACK DIS-

left.
TRACK SKIP: The TRACK SKIP (12) buttons let you
select the track to play.
SEARCH: The SEARCH (13) buttons are used to
move foward or reverse while in play mode. The
SEARCH (13) buttons are also used to accurately posi-
tion the disc at the point where you wish the track to start
playing. This position on the track is memorized as the
cue point. See the CUE INSTRUCTIONS section for
more information.

AUTO-CUE function. The AUTO-CUE function causes
the unit to pause at the beginning of music of the follow-
ing track and allows you to start play immediately from the
start of music without any blank space (which exists at the
beginning of every track). Pressing the SINGLE (14) but-
ton a second time activates the CONTINUOUS function
