1. SEARCH WHEEL (OUTER RING): This wheel has 4 forward and 4 backward speed positions for
searching through songs. The more you turn the wheel in either direction the faster you will search
through the music.
2. JOG WHEEL (INNER RING): This jog wheel serves 2 functions depending on the mode you are
working in.
 The jog wheel acts as a slow frame search (1/75sec) control when the CD is not playing but either
paused or set to a cue point. To set a new cue point, spin the wheel and press PLAY when you
have determined the proper position. Press CUE to return to the "CUE POINT".
 The jog wheel temporarily bends the pitch of the music up to +/-16% if the song is already playing
by rotating the wheel clockwise to speed up or counterclockwise to slow down. The amount of pitch
change is determined by the speed of rotation.

back skip. Press the +10 button to skip 10 tracks at once.

released. Also with the unit in pause mode (Play/Pause LED blinks) the search and/or jog wheel is used
to set a different start point. By pressing "PLAY/PAUSE" button then "CUE", you can confirm this new
cue point. The CUE LED will light up since the cue button is pressed until the CD has returned to the
