This CD player requires either eight (8) “C” cell batteries (not included) or a
9V AC adapter having a positive center.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
1. Make sure the unit is not on the
base. Open the battery
compartment door by rotating the
Battery knob clockwise, then lift
the battery compartment off.
2. Insert eight (8) “C” cell batteries
(not included) as shown in the
illustration to the right. Alkaline
batteries are recommended for
the longest playing time.
3. Replace the battery compartment
cover and rotate the Battery knob
counter-clockwise so the compartment is secured.
AC OPERATION
To operate the unit using AC power, connect an adapter with an input of
120V, 60Hz and an output of 9V DC, 500mA (adapter not included) to an
AC outlet having 120V, 60Hz AC only. Plug the small end into the DC 9V
jack on the unit and connect the other end into the AC outlet. The batteries
are automatically disconnected when the AC adapter is used.
CAUTION: When not using AC power, disconnect the AC adapter from
the wall outlet by pulling the plug (not the cord). Do not touch the AC
adapter with wet hands and plug fully inserted without exposing any part
of the blade. Do not use an AC adapter near water.
