Digital Anti-Shock System

The Digital Anti-Shock System "DASS" 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 Anti-Shock System turn 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 "

" mark will flash and 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.
To cancel the Anti-Shock System, press the ANTI-SHOCK button, then "

indicator disappears in the display.

NOTES:

In the "DIGITAL ANTI-SHOCK SYSTEM", battery power consumption is more

because the disc rotates faster than normal and the memory circuit is active.

When the Digital Anti-Shock System is switched on or off, the sound will be interrupted

for a short time. This is normal.

Under some conditions, noise may be heard or sound skipping may occur.

-when the disc is dirty or scratched.

-when the disc contains certain signals.

-when the unit is subjected to a certain kind of shock.

In these conditions, try to release "DIGITAL ANTI-SHOCK SYSTEM".
