FAVOURITE TRACK SELECTIONS (’FTS’)
You can also transfer a programme to the permanent (FTS) memory of the
player. Your favourite track selection of a given disc can then be called up
and played whenever you wish.
The selection will remain stored in the FTS memory even if you play the entire
disc or compile a different programme from it.
Each disc in the FTS memory is given a ranking number. There are 127
numbers available.
The number of discs which can be stored in the FTS memory depends on
the number of tracks in each programme.
NOTE!
FTS must always be used together with other keys. Press the next key within
5 seconds, otherwise [Fs] will stop flashing. You can then start again by
pressing FTS once more.

OTHER POSSIBILITIES
LISTENING WITH HEADPHONES
@ Connect headphones with a 6.3 mm jack plug and an impedance
between 8 and 2000 ohms to the PHONES socket.
~ The volume of the sound you hear is determined by the impedance of the
headphones and the signal level on the disc itself.
The sound level can be adjusted using the W VOLUME A keys on the
remote control.
RECORDING FROM YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER
If you wish to make a tape recording of a disc or a programme, it can be
useful to store the recording time of the tape in the player's memory.
Should the disc or the programme be longer than one side of the tape, a
pause will then be inserted automatically after the last track which fits onto
that side. This will prevent the disc or the programme continuing to play
when the tape has already stopped.
NOTE!
if the player is connected to the amplifier via the VARIABLE output, the
v VOLUME 4 keys may not be used during recording. If necessary,use
the VOLUME 4 key to increase the volume level up to the volume level at
which the amplifier has been set.

functions (except TIME) will temporarily be switched off to prevent the
recording being interfered with.
