Info
ESP is the abbreviation for “Electronic Shock Protection”
system of the eBench KH 2257/2258/2259/2260 Portable
MP3-CD Player. The ESP system is automatically switched
on when playing audio and MP3 CDs.The system ensures that
playback of CDs, MP3-CDs, CD-Rs and CD-RWs is not impaired
when the player is exposed to shocks and vibrations.
The digital data of the loaded CD, equalling a playback per-
iod of 40 seconds, is temporarily stored in a read-ahead me-
mory buffer. As soon as this memory is full – recognisable
by the bar in the memory display of the LCD display – the

next data from the loaded CD is overwritten (once again 40
seconds of playback).
If the player is exposed to a shock during playback, then the
data stored in the read-ahead memory buffer is read out
for interference-free playback. This gives the laser scanner
time to re-stabilise and read in new data from the CD. After
the data from the read-ahead memory buffer have been col-
lected, new data are transferred to the memory.
Please note!
The ESP system cannot prevent damage to the MP3-CD player
as a result of jolts or vibrations or if the player is dropped!
Ensure that the MP3-CD player is transported or stands as
vibration-free as possible and that it cannot fall down from
its location point.
