Using other functions
To minimize skipping (ESP
2
)
F
The ESP (Electronic Shock Protection)
function minimize skipping by using a
buffer memory that stores music data
and plays it back in the event of a
shock.
The new ESP
2
(ESP Squared) system
uses a new DSP (Digital Signal
Processor) which can read and store
music data more efficiently, providing
a level of continuous skip protection
not found in traditional buffer memory
units. This decreases the frequency of
sound skipping and the need to utilize
the buffer memory. Use this function
when listening in a car or while
walking.*
* Although ESP
2
provides excellent
protection against skipping, it will not
prevent skipping while jogging or
running.
Press ESP.
The ESP indication appears.
To release the ESP function, press ESP
again.
