The PITCH ON/OFF (6) button will illuminate when it is in the `ON' position, and the word `PITCH' will be displayed above the Pitch Percentage on the LCD DISPLAY (1). SINGLE/CONTINUOUS PLAY: The SINGLE/CONTINUOUS PLAY (7) mode button determines if the unit will pause after playing each track. By default, the unit is set to Continuous mode, which will play the entire disc without stopping. When the SINGLE/CONTINUOUS PLAY (7) mode button is pressed, the unit will display the word `SINGLE' in the upper right corner of the respective LCD DISPLAY (1), and the unit will pause after the end of each track.
