source.
This system deals with skipping in a variety
of ways:
sAn anti-skip mechanism prevents skipping caused
when play speed changes due to swinging of the unit.
ФА recovery system immediately returns the laser pick-
up to its original position if it is knocked off the track by
a strong shock.
* An anti skip memory (max. 48seconds) fills in interrup-
tions caused by bumps and vibrations.
The anti-skip system works automatically while the
system is on and cannot be canceled.
When bumps continue repeatedly
The elapsed playing time disappears and sound is inter-
rupted.
While the system is on, the disc rotates at a higher
rate than usual in collecting extra audio data, This
could result in a slight increase in disc rotation noise.
e The anti-skip memory compresses digital signals.
Using the Wired Remote Control
The remote control can be operated regardless of the
HOLD mode of the unit.
Preparation:
Release the remote control from the HOLD mode.

tone sounds. Refer to the parentheses in the illustra-
tion for the different types of confirmation tones.

Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume. Hearing experts advise
against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use,
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. H may create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in potentially haz-
ardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type designed to let you hear
outside sounds, don't turn up the volume so high that you cant hear what's around
you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher vol-
umes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your
hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing
adapts,
To establish a safe level:
eStart your volume control at a low setting.
» Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without
distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
el eave it there,
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the headphones, earphcnes ог
any other parts that directly contact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes
or gather allergic reactions.
