[. . . ] MicroSystem CD Owner's Manual 2 Thank you for choosing the Boston Acoustics MicroSystem CD. ® The MicroSystem CD is a state-of-the-art stereo radio/CD player and a versatile audio center that delivers the performance and versatility of precisely matched, separate components in one compact, easy-to-use unit. Special Features You can preset as many as 12 FM and 12 AM stations for instant recall. Play an iPod® or other MP3 player through the convenient front-panel jack. Play the sound from your TV and a CD changer or another audio device through the two rear-panel Auxiliary inputs. Plug in headphones and automatically silence the internal speakers for private listening. [. . . ] To move forward or backward within a song, hold down the Tune/Track arrow button. The Remote Control has two additional arrow buttons, marked "MP3 folder. " These jump to the previous or next folder on the disc. This is a fast and easy way to move through many song files, if you have created your disc with the songs grouped in top-level folders as explained above. If so, the MP3 folder buttons act like the disc change buttons on a CD changer. The MicroSystem CD assigns and displays a track number for every song file on the disc, in one continuous series, regardless of any folders.
