Your Optimus CD-3580 Portable Compact Disc Player uses the latest digital
audio technology to give you the clean, crisp sound of compact discs.  You
can connect the CD player to your home audio system, or connect a pair of
stereo earphones for portable, private listening.  Its unique digital anti-
shock system virtually eliminates skips caused by sudden shocks.

The CD player's features include:

Digital Anti-Shock System (DASı) - rapidly scans data from the CD and stores
                                   it in memory for uninterrupted play with
                                   no sound skip even when the CD player is
                                   exposed to shocks or vibration, making
                                   this CD player excellent for use with
                                   your auto sound system.

Eight-Times Oversampling with Digital Filtering - improves the CD's sound
                         by multiplying the standard 44.1 kHz sample rate 
                         by eight and using a digital filter to reduce or
                         eliminate distortion.

1-Bit DAC - uses the latest in digital-to-analog conversion circuitry to
            accurately reproduce all sound levels with virtually no 
            distortion.

BASS Switch - lets you adjust the frequency response to match the type of
              music you listen to.

Automatic Search Music System (ASMS) - lets you quickly locate and play any
                                       track on a CD.

Audible Search - helps you locate a particular section of a track by
                 rapidly playing the CD in either direction.

Programmable Play - lets you program and play up to 22 tracks in any
                    sequence you choose.

Repeat Play - lets you automatically repeat a single track, an entire CD,
              randomly selected tracks, or a programmed sequence of tracks.

Pause - lets you temporarily stop playback of a CD and start it again from
        the same point.

Intro Scan - helps you locate a desired track by playing the first 10
             seconds of each track on the CD.

Auto Power On/Off - automatically turns power on when you load a CD, so you
                    can immediately begin play; and turns power off when
                    all tracks finish, to save power.

Hold Function - prevents you from accidentally changing the CD's programmed
                play sequence, and preserves battery life by locking all
                controls when you turn off the CD player.

Three Power Sources - let you power your CD player from AA batteries,
                      standard AC power (using an optional AC adapter), or
                      your vehicle's battery (using an optional DC adapter).

Built-In Battery Charger - recharges the battery inside the CD player when
                           you use a special-order nickel-cadmium battery
                           pack.
