The unit then fills in interruptions caused by bumps and vibrations with data from the memory. This unit also incorporates a powerful anti-shock mechanism that prevents skipping caused when play speed is changed by swinging of the unit. Note! If you have pressed [A. SHOCK] when the unit is in stop status, press [1;] to start play. Note! The anti-shock setting can be changed during play, but this may cause a slight interruption in the sound because the disc's rotation speed changes. During anti-shock operation, the disc rotates at a higher rate than usual to collect extra audio data. This could result in a slight increase in disc rotation noise. When bumps continue repeatedly The following indicator appears on the display panel and sound is interrupted. Press during play or stop mode. A. SHOCK I The following indicator appears on the display panel. B A. SHOCK Using the unit with an audio system The anti-shock function uses digital signal compression technology.
