Buttons and display
Pressing a red button makes the
BeoSound Century respond – either by
carrying out your instruction, or by
making another set of buttons available
to you – or both.
The display and the red buttons guide
you through any operation you may
wish to carry out, engaging you in a
playful conversation about the
BeoSound Century music sources.
These pages show what the display and
each of the 26 buttons are used for…
SOUND allows you to adjust the sound levels:
volume, balance, bass, treble and loudness
(pages 22 - 23).
STORE allows you to store:
●
radio stations on program numbers (page 12);
●

REC allows you to record the source you are
listening to (pages 18-20).

●
