6 Electronic Sound Systems How to stop and restart the CD player When a disc is loaded, the unit automatically enters the play mode and the play indicator a illuminates. To stop temporarily, press the "PLAY/STOP" button or the "AM/FM" button. The stop indicator X in the display illuminates and operation returns to the radio mode. To resume CD play, press the "PLAY/STOP" button once again. NOTE: If the ignition key is turned OFF during play and then is set to the ON or ACCESSORY position, the CD player will resume playing in the mode it was in when ignition was turned off. How to locate a selection on your CD player using Automatic Music Search (AMS) An "AMS" (Automatic Music Search) control on your CD player allows you to quickly find a particular selection on the disc. Press the left f side of the "AMS" control to locate a previous selection or the right e side of the "AMS" control to locate a later selection. How to fast forward or reverse your CD player To quickly search for a particular point in a selection, press the right e button (to fast forward) or the left f button (to reverse). While either button is pressed, the disc goes forward or backward at two different speeds depending on how long the button is held down. (Pressing either button for more than approximately three seconds will speed up the process.) Release the button at the desired point (found by watching the elapsed playing time in the display or listening to the sound during fast forward or reverse). When you have reached the end of the disc by keeping the fast forward e side of the button pressed, the display will show the end time of the last track and the sound will be muted. When the fast forward e side of the button is released, the player resumes play at the beginning of the first track. 123
