The player is equipped with a laser that may cause injury to the eye if it comes into visual contact. Please ensure that no foreign matter gets into the player. The CD compartment is equipped with a safety system that switches the laser off automatically as soon as the CD compartment is opened. [. . . ] Please only use the AC adapter supplied for charging batteries. General Functions Automatic switch-on When you press the PLAY/PAUSE button, the player is automatically switched on. Automatic switch-off The player is automatically switched off after 30 seconds when all of the songs on a CD have been played or you press the STOP button twice. Digital electronic anti-shock system The digital electronic anti-shock system is regulated by a semiconductor memory that keeps the complete sound playback from being impaired if the player is exposed to impact or vibration. In CD operation you may activate the digital electronic anti-shock system as follows: Press the ALBUM/ESP/10+ button when the player is playing. The display is removed with the symbol remaining in the display. Then the electronic anti-shock 8 system is activated. The digital data corresponding to a sound playback of 45 seconds is put into a read-ahead memory buffer. As soon as the memory buffer is full, which you can see on the bars in the memory display , it is overwritten with the next data (in turn also corresponding to 45 seconds of sound playback). If the player is exposed to impact in CD operation during playback, the data in the buffer are evaluated and sound playback can continue without problems. This gives the laser scanner time to stabilise and to read in new data from the CD. When the data from the memory have been captured, new data is put into the memory. The battery power is quickly reduced by the anti-shock system being on. Therefore, if you are sure that the CD player is on a sturdy base and is not exposed to any shocks or vibration, leave the anti-shock system switched off. In MP3 CD operation, the buffer records 120 seconds of music. The ESP function is constantly activated and cannot be switched off. Bass Boost Use bass boost to improve sound playback or to amplify the bass range when using headphones. Equaliser function You may play music with a wide range of equaliser curves. You have a selection of POP, CLASSIC, JAZZ, DISCO and NORMAL. Each equaliser curve has its own characteristic way of intoning the treble range, mid-range and bass range. This means that you can adapt playback to a variety of music genres and your very personal habits and preferences. Press the EQ/PROG button during playback to activate the various equaliser curves. If you press the EQ/PROG button several times, you can go through the various equaliser curves and the equaliser curve selected is indicated in the display for a few seconds. Hold mode/key lock After you have entered all settings, put the HOLD slide to ON and "HOLD" appears in the display. [. . . ] Before searching for songs, you should nd out whether the name of the artist or the song title was stored rst on the MP3 CD to identify the songs. Then either enter eight letters/numbers of the artist`s name or eight letters of the song title. Press the STOP button and keep the MODE button pressed until "SONG SEARCH" appears in the display. Select the initial of the song you are searching for with the SKIP buttons (forwards/backwards) when the letter A appears on the display. [. . . ]
