You are returned to Play mode once a setting or a process has been completed within the other
modes. If you want to return to Play mode without completing a setting or operation, press the
button for the current mode (i.e., the button that is lit). Alternatively, press the
[CANCEL]
button.
The setting you were in the process of making will be discarded.
