respond to the prograimne up/down buttons
on the "Handi Remote".
REMOTE MODE - The Delta 290 is fitted
with an internal Remote Mode selector
switch, which is factory-set to NORMAL.
In NORMAL mode, the Arcam "Handi-
Remote" or Arcam CR200 System Remote

a single button.
For example, using the remote in CD mode,
press PLAY, and the CD player will start the
disc and the LISTEN function selects CD,
If this fecility is not required, the internal
selector switch should be set to UNIQUE.
The LISTEN selector switch can still be
operated by either remote control handset.

connections and pre-amp outputs. Both
tape outputs however remain active. In
MUTE mode the power LED will rum

pressed. TAPE 2 may be chosen via the
fiont panel switch but not by the remote
