IMPORTANT NOTES
Hearing is very important to you and to us so please take care when
operating this equipment. It is strongly recommended that you follow the
listed guidelines in order to prevent possible damage or loss of hearing:
ESTABLISH A SAFE SOUND LEVEL
• Over time your hearing will adapt continuous loud sounds and will give the
impression that the volume has in fact been reduced. What seems normal to you
may in fact be harmful. To guard against this BEFORE YOUR HEARING
ADAPTS set the volume at a low level.
• Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortably and clearly and
without distortion.
• Damage to your hearing is accumulative and is irreversible.
• Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume is too loud.
Once you have established a comfortable listening level, DO NOT INCREASE
THE SOUND LEVEL FURTHER.
The following list of typical sound levels may assist you in recognizing just how
loud you have set the volume level.

DIGITAL ANTI SHOCK OPERATION
This player incorporates the latest digital anti shock circuit, which prevents
interruption of the sound output if the unit is subjected to shock or vibration during
disc playback. The anti shock system will automatically start when a disc is played,
is shown in the display during start up. If the anti shock function is not required
then it can be switched off by pressing the ESP button.
ESP
To turn this function off press the ESP button.
Notes:
1. When using the ANTI SHOCK function the battery power consumption
increases because the disc rotates faster than normal and the dynamic memory
is active.
2. Whilst the ANTI SHOCK function provides for continuous sound output when
the unit is subjected to shock or vibration. It will not correct errors arising from
the use of defective scratched or dirty discs.
3. When powering the player solely from batteries, only use the ANTI SHOCK
function where necessary to preserve their life.

rechargeable batteries, matching polarity. (1.2V 650mA)
