ESP / POWERSAVING MODE

With a conventional portable CD-player you might have experienced that the music stopped e.g. when you were jogging. The Electronic Skip Protection (ESP) prevents loss of sound caused by light vibrations and shocks. Continuous playback is ensured. However ESP does not prevent playback interruptions during vigorous running. It also does not protect the unit against any damage caused by dropping!

The power save mode helps to extend battery service life for longer playback.

• To deactivate the shock protection and enter the power save mode, press ESP..

ESP disappears.

Press ESP again.
