and not repeated under each function.
•
•
•
The names of buttons/controls are written in all capital letters: e.g. TUNER BAND.
If the button names on the Unit and the Remote Control are the same, the description on which the button is used will be omitted.
System functions are written with an initial capital letter only: e.g. Normal Play.
Use the table of contents to look up specific information you require.
We’ve enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope it serves you in enjoying the many features built into your System.
