ABOUT ANTI-SHOCK SYSTEM
The player contains special circuits to save music in memory and then play from
memory. As for CD, the anti-shock is 40 seconds. For MP3, it is 120 seconds.
The anti-shock system will turn on automatically once the CD/MP3 player is
turned on by pressing button. The anti-shock icon “ ” is shown on the
LCD.
If you are listening to a CD, you may press SAS/+10/St/Mono button to turn
the anti-shock system off. But for MP3, anti-shock cannot be turned off. As the
player continuously saves the next 120 seconds of music in memory, the MP3
disc will not rotate when it is playing by memory. Only when it is reading music
from the MP3 disc, the disc rotates.
