ESP PLUSTM ANTI-SKIP SYSTEM
This set is designed with the latest 60 second ESP PLUSTM (Electronic Skip Protection) for CD play and 120 second for MP3 - which allows virtually unlimited gentle skip protection above the normal shock protection.
The ESP PLUSTM function prevents the sound from skipping by using a buffer memory that stores music data. This new ESP PLUSTM system can store more music than normal
This new design allows gentle swaying of the set (as in walking) without music skipping. This function may not work during heavy jogging.
The ESP PLUSTM function will turn on automatically when the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed.
When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed, the “ 
” (memory
basket) indicator will appear in the display, the digital data (music) is stored in the
The “ ” mark changes to the “ 
” mark, indicating that the memory buffer (basket) is full. 
•If 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 basket has time to fill up again.
NOTE:
-The music may stop if the player receives continuous shocking or shaking.
-You may hear noise or skipping if the DISC is dirty or scratched.
-During ESP play, if you press SKIP/SEARCH button, or 10+ / ALBUM button, the memory basket will empty itself temporarily in order to read ahead.
