Tip: How to read the keyboard shortcut table -- find the function you wish to perform, look to the left and above to find the key combination. For example, find the Eject function in the table, look to the left to find the Ctrl+Shift keys and look above to find the F1 key. Therefore if you press Ctrl+Shift followed by the F1 key Deck A will eject whatever is playing.
