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
ESP

.*

* 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,
— listening to an audio test CD or,
