The cues in the upper display relate to functions in
the CD player, e.g. track number.

secondary functions used e.g. for tuning in radio
stations or programming, see page 11 in the
Reference book for further instructions.

When you press the CD button to
play the CD you have loaded, all
information on the CD, for example
the number of tracks will first be
registered. Then the CD will start
playing from the beginning. Playing
will continue until the whole CD has
been played, BeoSound 3000 then
automatically switches to standby
after 30 minutes, if you do not
operate it.
You can step to other tracks or
search through the CD – just as if
you were fast forwarding or
rewinding a tape.
It is also possible to play a CD in
random order, and repeat a CD or
just one track over and over – for up
to 12 hours on end. These functions
can be used in conjunction or
separately.
You can always keep track of what
the CD player is doing by watching
the displays. The displays read out
either track number or track time,
depending on which display mode it
has been set to. If you have named
the CD, the name will also be shown
in the display*.
*NOTE! If the display has been set to show the
name of the CD, only the name will appear in
the display and you cannot follow the elapsed
time process. See page 17 in the Reference book
for details of the various display modes.
Using the CD player
Play a CD
When you play a CD, you can stop it at any
time. If you select another source, the CD
stops automatically. When you search through
a CD, searching will continue for as long as
you keep your finger on the button. When
you lift your finger off the button, the CD
resumes playing.
Different ways of playing a CD
The random play function plays all the tracks
on the CD in random order. The repeat
function, repeats the CD for up to 12 hours,
and the replay function plays the specific track
over and over. The functions are cancelled by
pressing the RANDOM, REPEAT or REPLAY
button again.
While the CD is playing,
press RANDOM.

Play or delete a series of tracks
Once you have edited a CD and selected your
own series of tracks, then, every time you play
the CD it starts playing the series of tracks you
have chosen. But you can choose to listen to
the entire CD. You can also delete the series
of tracks you have made, to always play the
CD in full.
Select and store a series of tracks
Before editing, you must start playing the CD.
If you do not make a selection of whether to
include or exclude the track being played, it is
automatically included. If you choose to leave
the function before you have included or
excluded all the tracks on the CD, the
remaining tracks will be regarded as excluded.

in random order and repeating a CD, see the
previous page.
Sometimes not the entire selection of
tracks on a CD is to your liking, it is
therefore possible to edit the CD, so
that only the tracks you like and
select are played. The selected tracks
are played in numerical order.
Load the CD you want to edit, the
CD is then scanned. Scanning means
that the first 15 seconds of each
track on this CD will be played. On
the display, the track number you are
currently playing will appear. While
listening to the track, you choose
whether to include or exclude the
track.
