Optimus CD-3520 Portable CD Player User Manual


 
7
Important: This portable CD player is
capable of using rechargeable nickel-
cadmium battery packs. At the end of
the battery packs’ useful life, they
must be recycled or disposed of prop-
erly. Contact your local, county, or
state hazardous waste management
authorities for information on recycling
or disposal programs in your area.
Some options that might be available
are: municipal curb-side collection,
drop-off boxes at retailers, recycling
collection centers, and mail-back pro-
grams.
USING AC POWER
You can power the CD player from a
standard AC outlet using an AC
adapter, such as Cat. No. 273-1664
(not supplied).
Cautions:
You must use an AC adapter that
supplies 6 volts and delivers at
least 550 milliamps. Its center tip
must be set to positive, and its
plug must correctly fit the CD
player’s
DC IN 6V
jack. The recom-
mended adapter meets these
specifications. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifi-
cations could damage the CD
player or the adapter.
When you finish using the AC
adapter, disconnect it from the AC
outlet first, then unplug it from the
CD player.
Follow these steps to use an AC
adapter.
1. Attach the 4.0 mm outer diameter/
1.7 mm inner diameter barrel plug
to the adapter cord, matching the
positive (+) on the plug with TIP
on the cord.
2. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to
6V.
3. Insert the adapter’s barrel plug
into the CD player’s
DC IN 6V
jack.
Note: Battery power disconnects
when you connect an AC adapter
to the CD player (unless you are
using nickel-cadmium battery
packs).
4. Plug the other end of the adapter
into a standard AC outlet.
