"repeat track" function.
Pauses of at least 3 seconds are left between tracks for the MSS function (without an announcement

treated as pauses.

of presses on the key; «+ --« appears on the display.

When keys A or B are pressed for longer than 2 seconds, the CD player is made to forward/rewind fully
to the end of the tape.
If the MSS function is deactivated ( from EXPERT) a short press on key A or B allows fast forward or
fast rewind of the tape.
