Can you still play hidden tracks if the tonearm is fully automatic?

Hello, I've read some reviews on players with automatic tone arms that don't play hidden songs at the end of a piece of vinyl. Some of my records have hidden tracks where there can be a large gap at the end of an album till the hidden song. I've never owned a player with a fully automatic tone arm and was looking at the Sony PS-LX310BT. Can you set the arm manually to play them?

I think you are talking about the run-off groove. Some albums will record short messages and or repeat notes in there e.g. Peter Gabriel 2 (Scratch).

Check the manual which will be available on-line. Is it possible and is it worth worrying about? Doubt it in most cases!
