About CD-Rs/CD-RWs

This CD player can play CD-Rs/CD-RWs

recorded in the CD-DA format*, but playback

capability may vary depending on the quality

of the disc and the condition of the recording

device.

* CD-DA is the abbreviation for Compact Disc

Digital Audio. It is a recording standard used

for the Audio CDs.

When closing the lid of the CD player

with the power supply attached

While the "disc" flashes in the display, the CD

starts rotating and will stop after the CD

player reads the disc information. This helps to

shorten the waiting time before playback

starts.

Play mode indication

Using other functions

To maximize the skip protection

performance (ESP MAX)

The typical ESP (Electronic Shock Protection)

function minimizes skipping by using a

buffer memory that stores music data and

plays it back in the event of a shock.

The ESP MAX system is an extremely

sophisticated technology. Due to the light

weight and improved anti-shock

characteristics of the optical block, this system

recovers from the skipping much quicker

than conventional technology such as ESP or

ESP2.*

* Although ESP MAX provides excellent

protection, skipping may occasionally occur.

Set ESP to "ON."

The ESP indication appears.

To release the ESP MAX function, set ESP to

"OFF."

Notes

· Playing may stop when the CD player gets a

strong shock even with the ESP MAX function

on.

· You may hear a noise or sound may skip:

-- when listening to a dirty or scratched CD,

-- when listening to an audio test CD,

-- when the player receives continuous shock or

-- when using poor-quality CD-Rs/CD-RWs or

if there is a problem with the recording

device or application software.

On headphones/earphones

Road safety

Do not use headphones/earphones while

driving, cycling, or operating any motorized

vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is

illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially

dangerous to play your headsets at high volume

while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings.

You should exercise extreme caution or

discontinue use in potentially hazardous

situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones/earphones at high

volume. Hearing experts advise against

continuous, loud and extended play. If you

experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume

or discontinue use.

Consideration for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will

allow you to hear outside sounds and to be

considerate to the people around you.

Maintenance

To clean the casing

Use a soft cloth slightly moistened in water or a

mild detergent solution. Do not use alcohol,

benzine or thinner.
