TO ENTER A TRACK FROM 1 TO 9 DIRECTLY

press the corresponding digit on the remote control
for less than 0.5 seconds. When the digit is
pressed it is shown on the display. When the
button is released the MIMIK will play the selected
track.

TO ENTER A TRACK FROM 10 TO 99 DIRECTLY

press and hold down the button for the first digit.
The digit will be shown on the display. After 0.5
seconds the displayed digit will move one place
to the left and a dash will appear in the original
digit position. Press the button for the second
digit. The dash on the display will be replaced by
this second digit, and the MIMIK will play the
selected track.

GETTING UNSTUCK

Occasionally, you may find that your MIMIK fails to respond the way
you expect when you press a key. This will usually be because
inadvertently you have pressed a key you didn't intend to, which then
puts your MIMIK into a mode where it behaves unexpectedly. Of
course, you can always turn off and start again, but it's worthwhile
learning how to interpret the display and indicator lights.

If the display is asleep and just showing "--" press 

DISPLAY 

to wake the

display up.

The display will show "00" if a disc is not loaded.

The display will show "." if the MIMIK is unable to read a disc,
indicating a probable disc fault.

When a disc is loaded but not playing, the display will show either the
total number of tracks or the total time of the disc, depending on the
display mode you have selected.
