FORWARD (») AND REVERSE («) SEARCH : The CDP-88 employs a convenient 2-speed search.
These buttons allow you to quickly search through the disk in both directions. Press and hold down the
desired SEARCH button. The time counter will approximately double in speed, and the track heard will
be reduced in volume. Once the desired point is reached, release the SEARCH button. Playback will
resume.
If the SEARCH button is held for more than 4 seconds, the CDP-88 goes into a high-speed search mode,
and the time counter advances very rapidly. During high-speed search, the volume is completely muted.
2. DISPLAY INFORMATION AND VARIOUS MODES OF OPERATION:
To insert a disk, press LOAD to open the CD tray. Gently place the disk with the label side up
on the tray, and press LOAD again. The tray will close, and several seconds later the display will
indicate the total number of tracks on the disk with the total playing time. If the disk has not been
properly inserted, or is inserted upside down, the message NO DISC will appear on the display. Disks
with bad scratches, pinholes, or other severe manufacturing defects might also not be useable.
Once the display confirms the number of tracks and playing time, the CDP-88 is in STOP mode. At this
point, you can carry out several different playback modes. Each is described in detail below.
Playback from the beginning or from a selected track
To play an entire disk from the beginning, press PLAY. The CDP-88 will start playing in a few
seconds, and will play the entire disk. To play from a desired track onwards, select the desired track
using the NEXT ( ¾ ) and/or PREVIOUS ( ½ ) buttons, or with the numeric keypad on the remote control.
Then press PLAY. The disk will play from that point on until the end of the disk. While playing, the
display will show each track currently playing along with the elapsed time from the beginning of that
track. Once the disk is over, the CDP-88 will return to STOP mode.
