[AS30530(R)05/96]
Press (
b) once to repeat the current playing selection. Press
(
a) to advance to the next selection. If the (
a) button is
pressed during the last selection on the CD, the CD will
advance to the first track on the disc.
[AS30540(R)05/96]
Pressing and holding the (
b)or(
a) button will scroll
backward and forward respectively through the tracks.
[AS30550(R)05/96]

[AS30570(R)05/96]
Press the ºSCNª button to enter the scan mode. The scan mode
causes the CD to advance to the next track, play for 8 seconds,
and then advance to the next track. This continues until the
ºSCNª button is pressed a second time, the ºCDª button is
pressed, or a different tuning function is selected.

How to fast forward or reverse your CD player
[AS30620(R)05/96]
To quickly search for a particular point in a selection, press the
(
a) side of the ºTUNEª button (to fast forward) or press the
(
b) side (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 and holding either
button for more than 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 by listening to the sound
during fast forward or reverse). When you have reached the
beginning of track 1, the CD player will begin playing.
[AS30630(R)05/96]
When you reach the end of a track, the CD will advance to the
next track and continue at high speed. When the end of the CD
is reached, the fast forward function stops. In a similar way,
holding the (
b) button will reverse the CD until the beginning
of the CD is reached.

[AS30680(R)05/96]
How to view the clock mode
[AS30690(R)05/96]
Press the ºCLKª button to display time. The time will continue
to be displayed until a radio or tape function is chosen. After
approximately 10 seconds, the time will again appear in the
display. To display radio or tape information only, press the
ºCLKª button a second time.

Common Radio Reception Conditions
*
[AS30760(R)05/96]
Several conditions prevent FM reception from being completely
clear and noise-free, such as the following:
*
[AS30770(R)05/96]1.
Distance/Strength
*
[AS30780(R)05/96]
The strength of the FM signal is directly related to the distance
the signal must travel. The listenable range of an average FM
signal is approximately 25 miles (40 kilometers). Beyond this
distance, the radio is operating in a fringe area and the signal
becomes weaker.

Terrain
*
[AS30800(R)05/96]
The terrain (hilly, mountainous, tall buildings) of the area over
which the signal travels may prevent the FM signal from being
noise-free.
*
[AS30810(R)05/96]
If there is a building or large structure between the antenna and
station, some of the signal ºbendsª around the building, but
certain spots receive almost no signal. Moving out of the
ºshadowª of the structure will allow the station to return to
normal.
*
[AS30820(R)05/96]
When the radio waves are reflected off objects or structures, the
reflected signal cancels the normal signal, causing the antenna to
pick up noise and distortion. Cancellation effects are most
prominent in metropolitan areas, but also can become quite
severe in hilly terrain and depressed roadways.
*
[AS30830(R)05/96]
To minimize these conditions, a stereo/mono blend circuit has
been incorporated into this system. This feature automatically
switches a weak stereo signal to a clearer monaural signal,
which improves the quality of reception.
*
[AS30840(R)05/96]
Several sources of static are normal conditions on AM
frequencies. These can be caused by power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms.
*
[AS30850(R)05/96]
Another reception phenomenon isStrong Signal Capture and
Overload. This can occur when listening to a weak station and
when passing another broadcast tower. The close station may
capture the more distant station, although the displayed
frequency does not change. While passing the tower, the station
may switch back and forth a few times before returning to the
original station.
