Using the unit with an audio
system
Using stereo connection cable (not included), you can
listen to CDs on your audio system.
≥
Turn off this unit and the other equipment before con-
nection.
≥
Do not connect the cable to the PHONO jacks on the
amplifier.
≥
Obtain the optional connecting cable if the other
equipment comes with mini-phone jacks.
≥
Adjust the volume on the other equipment.
≥
Set this unit’s volume to 10.
This system deals with skipping in a variety
of ways:
≥
An anti-skip mechanism prevents skipping caused
when play speed changes due to swinging of the unit.
≥
A recovery system immediately returns the laser pick-
up to its original position if it is knocked off the track by
a strong shock.
≥
The 40-second anti-shock memory fills in interruptions
caused by bumps and vibrations.
The anti-skip system works automatically while the
system is on and cannot be canceled.
When bumps continue repeatedly
The elapsed playing time disappears and sound is inter-
rupted.

≥
While the system is on, the disc rotates at a higher
rate than usual in collecting extra audio data. This
could result in a slight increase in disc rotation noise.
≥
The anti-skip memory compresses digital signals.
