Anti-Shock Protection EX
This function achieves excellent performance against sound inter-
ruption caused by vibrations. You will be able to enjoy listening
to music during (not vigorous) jogging.

stored in the memory ahead of time.
For Audio CD: Up to 40 seconds worth (Anti-Shock Protection
on/off selectable)
For MP3:
Up to 100 seconds worth at 128 kbps (Anti-Shock
Protection is fixed to on.)

Press A.S.P/GROUP UP.
Notes:
• During this operation, the disc rotates at a higher rate than usual
in order to collect extra audio data. This may cause the batteries
to run out faster and could result in a slight increase in disc rota-
tion noise.
• This function can be switched ON and OFF during playback.
However, this may cause a slight interruption in the sound be-
cause the disc’s rotational speed changes.

When recharging is complete, unplug the
AC adaptor from the AC power outlet and
the DC IN jack.
Notes:
• Rechargeable batteries have a service life of approximately
300 charge-discharge cycles. If the operating time on one full
charge becomes noticeably shorter than it used to be, the batter-
ies have reached the end of their service life and should be re-
placed.
• You can recharge the batteries only when the unit is turned
off.
• The AC adaptor and rechargeable batteries may become warm
while recharging is in progress. This is normal and is not a
malfunction.
Using the AC adaptor (supplied)
Connect the AC adaptor.
Refer to “Using rechargeable batteries” for connection instruc-
tions.
Note:
Even if the unit is turned off, small power is consumed as long
as the AC adaptor is connected to the AC power outlet.
Using dry-cell batteries (not
supplied)
After disconnecting the AC adaptor, insert two “LR6” alkaline
batteries.
The procedure for inserting and removing dry-cell batteries is
identical to that rechargeable batteries.
Battery indicator
This indicator appears when the batteries are almost out of power.
Power will be cut off a short while later.
Note:
Turning off the Anti-Shock Protection EX will save the battery power
more or less. For details, see “Anti-shock Protection EX” on page 4.
