FAVOURITE TRACK SELECTION (FTS)
You can also transfer the programme for a particular disc to the
permanent (FTS) memory of the changer. You can then cail up and
play your favourite selection from this disc at any time.
The seiection remains stored in the FTS memory, even if you piay
the entire disc or compile another programme from it.
Every disc is assigned a ranking number in the FTS memory which
is shown on the display.
The number of discs you can store in the FTS memory is
dependent on the number of tracks per programme.
Note!
FTS must always be used together with other keys. Press the next
key
within 5 seconds, otherwise the FTS indication stops
flashing. Press the FTS key again to reactivate the command. •
