2. Safety instructions
Place the MP3-CD player, be it for stationary use, - e.g. at home – or when en route, on a level,
smooth non-slip base so that the MP3-CD player cannot slip. This applies particularly when the
MP3-CD player is operated in a car.
To prevent damage, functional interference and the danger of an electric shock do not use
the set …
•
… in the immediate vicinity of heat sources such as stoves, fan heaters and similar appli-
ances! Exposure to heat can cause the set to overheat and the risk of melting plastic parts,
thereby causing irreparable damage!
Do not leave the MP3-CD player at high temperatures in the car, particularly on sunny days
when the interior of the car can become very hot!
Ensure that the MP3-CD player is not exposed to direct sunlight in a car (e.g. directly behind the
windscreen).

player now reads in the information from the loaded CD.
The first track of the loaded audio CD is then automatically played.
The following is indicated on the display:
ôInfo
ESP is the abbreviation for“Electronic Shock Protection” system of the Silvercrest KH 2278
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 period of 60 seconds, is temporarily
stored in a read-ahead memory 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 over-
written (once again 60 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 memo-
ry buffer have been collected, new data are transferred to the memory.
