DIRECT ACCESS
To directly access a selection, enter the corresponding number (i.e. 4) fol-

line two as shown below. Line one shows the current list being used for se-
lection.
If a mistake is made while entering the number, press the DEL
button to
backspace once and correct the entry. If an invalid number is entered, a short
low-pitched tone sounds when SEL is pressed.
To exit the selection mode, press the

the selection mode is cleared while an entry is pending (i.e., numbers are en-
tered on line 2, but SEL has not been pressed), the entry on line two will be

within the valid range; if it is out of range, the entry on line two will be dis-
regarded and the previous selection will remain active.
