remote controller mode.
2. Press the [ON/STANDBY] button to turn on the AV

3. Press the [CD] button to select the CD input source.
4. Press the Play [

CD player.
You can program a MACRO button so that all four
actions are performed with just one button press.
Making Macros
Each MACRO button can store one macro, and each

Note:
If any of the buttons you used to make a macro are taught
new commands, the macro will no longer work properly
and will have to be made again.
