To enter a two- or three-digit number, press all the
digits in rapid succession. For example, to enter sound
number 025, press 2 followed quickly by 5. After a
one-second pause, "025" will appear in the display. To
avoid the pause, rapidly enter "0-2-5". The display will
immediately read "025".
If you wait too long to enter the last digit ("5''), the
keyboard will think you meant to select "2" and then
changed your mind to select "5". The display will end
up showing "005" instead of "025".
BE SURE TO ENTER ALL THE DIGITS OF THE
DESIRED NUMBER IN RAPID SUCCESSION.
