Digital Anti-Shock System (DAS^2)
Your CD-3740 contains special circuits to overcome sound skipping problems
caused by shock or vibration. This means you can carry the CD player
anywhere you go or use it in your vehicle. When you turn on the anti-
shock system, the CD player continuously saves the next 10 seconds of
music in memory. During a shock or vibration that would normally make a
track skip or pause, the CD player plays directly from memory.

player to ON. If you set DAS to ON while the CD player is playing a CD,
the sound briefly stops and DAS appears.
To turn off the anti-shock system, set DAS to OFF. The sound briefly
stops and DAS disappears.
Note: The CD player consumes additional battery power when you use the
anti-shock system. When you use the CD player in a stable
location, turn off the system to conserve battery power.
