grammed playback starts from chapter/track No. 9. When
chapter/track Nos. 9, 7, and then 18 have been played,
the player enters stop mode.
[ Programming of pause J
Programming pauses together with chapter/track numbers is very
convenient for recording the programmed playback.
• In case of recording the programmed playback on two sides of
an audio tape, it is recommended to program a pause after the
last chapter/track to be recorded on the first side of the tape.
This makes it possible to flip the tape while playback is paused
and avoid making a recording mistake.
• While programmed playback is paused, it is possible to record a
narration or create e non-recorded blank. Pressing II in pause
mode resumes programmed playback so that recording can be
restarted.
• It is not possible to record a pause as the final step of the
program.
