faster scanning speeds hold down either the FORWARD SEARCH/

3 different forward and 3 different reverse speeds depending on how
long the buttons are held down.

ELAPSED (31) - This details the time in the LCD (36, 37, & 38) as the

current tracks’ elapsed running time. The elapsed function only details a
tracks elapsed time and not the entire disc.
2)

REMAIN (33) - This details the time in the LCD (36, 37, & 38) as the cur-

rent tracks’ remaining running time.
3)

TOTAL REMAIN (32) - This details the time in the LCD (36, 37, & 38) as

the total disc remaining time.
TIME BAR INDICATOR - The time bar in the LCD visually details the time
defined in the TIME METER (36, 37, & 38). This bar is also dependent on
the selected time function (TOTAL REMAIN (32), REMAIN (33) or ELAPSE
(31)
.

This bar will begin to flash when 15 seconds of a track remain

and will begin to rapidly flash when three seconds of a track remain.
The flashing bar is a great visual reminder a track is about to end.
The flashing bar will function regardless of which time mode the unit
is in.
