The SKIP PROTECTION System incorporates a special electronic circuit that prevents sound from skipping
when the unit is subjected to shocks and vibration during play.
When you start playback, the SKIP PROTECTION System turns on and “ ” indicator appears
in the display to prevent sound skipping.
When the unit receives a physical shock which prevents the laser pick-up from "reading" the CD, this system
immediately starts playing the sound stored in its memory and continues until the laser pick-up recovers.
If the unit is subjected to continuous shocks and all the data stored in memory is used up the sound will skip.
If the vibration stops then the data memory will be restored. If continuous vibration is applied when the data
memory is empty, an error message “ ”will be displayed.To reset the CD player press “ ” once.
