This set is designed with 45 second ESP (Electronic Shock Protection) PLUS
TM
- which
allows virtually unlimited gentle skip protection, and 45 second normal shock protection.
The ESP PLUS
TM
function prevents the sound from skipping by using a buffer memory
that stores music data. The new ESP PLUS
TM
system can store more music than
normal anti-skip systems.

The ESP PLUS
TM
function will turn on automatically when the PLAY/
PAUSE button is pressed. Press the ESP+ button to turn off the
ESP PLUS
TM
if you need not ESP PLUS
TM

When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed during play, the “ ”
(memory buffer) indicator will appear in the display, the digital
data equivalent to approximately 45 seconds of music is stored
in the “read-ahead” memory buffer before it is decoded and
played.
The “ ” mark changes to the “ ” mark, indicating that the
memory buffer is full.
•
When the set is subject to a shock or a bump during play, the
data stored in memory continues to be decoded and played.
This gives the pickup time to stabilize and continue reading
new music. As the data is used from memory, the indicator
changes from “ ” to “ ”. Once the pickup returns to its
original position, new data is stored in memory and the display
changes back to the “ ” mark.
•
If the set is subject to repeated shocks and all the data stored
in memory is used up, the “ ” mark is displayed and the
sound will skip or stop for a brief period until the memory buffer
has time to fill up again.
•
To turn off the 45 second ESP PLUS
TM
function, press the ESP
button.
•
Keep the digital ESP PLUS
TM
function off when using the set in
a stable, no vibration area, where it will not receive shocks.
The batteries will last longer when the ESP function is off.
When the ESP PLUS
TM
function is switched ON or OFF during play,
the sound will be interrupted for a few seconds. This is normal.
NOTE:
- The music may stop if the player receives continuous shocking.
- You may hear noise or skipping if the CD is dirty or scratched.
- If during ESP play, you press PLAY/PAUSE, or SEARCH buttons,
the memory buffer will empty itself temporarily.
