## Setting the play mode [Play Mode]

Your “WALKMAN” offers a variety of play modes, including random play and selected repeat play.

1. From the Home menu, select [Settings] [Music Settings] [Play Mode] desired play mode type.

Type - icon | Description
[Normal] - No icon | The songs within the playback range are played back in the song list order.
[Repeat] - | The songs within the playback range are played back in the song list order and then repeated.
[Shuffle] - (*1) | The songs within the playback range are played back in random order.
[Shuffle&Repeat] - (*1) | The songs within the playback range are played back in random order and then repeated.
[Repeat 1 Song] - | The current song or the song selected from a song list is played back repeatedly.

(*1) When [Play Mode] is set to [Shuffle] or [Shuffle&Repeat] and [Playback Range] is set to [All Range], your “WALKMAN” will not shuffle all songs at once. Instead, your “WALKMAN” will select an artist, album, etc. one by one and play their songs in random order. However, [All Songs] and bookmark lists are exceptions. If you start from [All Songs], your “WALKMAN” will shuffle all songs at once. If you start from a bookmark list, the selected bookmark list only will be played back and the others will not be played back.
