Using other functions
To minimize skipping (ESP2) The ESP (Electronic Shock Protection) function minimize skipping by using a buffer memory that stores music data and plays it back in the event of a shock.
The new ESP2 (ESP Squared) system uses a new DSP (Digital Signal Processor) which can read and store music data more efficiently, providing a level of continuous skip protection not found in traditional buffer memory units. This decreases the frequency of sound skipping and the need to utilize the buffer memory. Use this function when listening in a car or while walking.*
* Although ESP2 provides excellent protection against skipping, it will not prevent skipping while jogging or running.
ESP
Press ESP. The ESP indication appears.
To release the ESP function, press ESP again.
Notes
• Playing may stop when the player gets a strong shock even with the ESP function on.
• You may hear a noise or sound skip when:
— listening to a dirty or scratched CD,
— listening to an audio test CD or,
— the player receives continuous shock.
• Sound may drop for a while if you press ESP during play.
• When you use an optical digital connecting cord, the ESP function will be disabled.
