USING AC POWER
You can power the CD player from a
standard AC outlet using an AC
adapter, such as Cat. No. 273-1664.
Cautions:
You must use an AC adapter that
supplies 6 volts, and delivers at
least 400 milliamps (CD-3620) or
500 milliamps (CD-3640). Its cen-
ter tip must be set to positive, and
its barrel plug must correctly fit the
CD player’s
DC IN 6V
jack. The
recommended adapter meets
these specifications. Using an
adapter that does not meet these
specifications 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.
• Battery power disconnects when
you connect an AC adapter to the
CD player unless you are using
special rechargeable nickel-
cadmium batteries (see “Using
Batteries” on Page 5). If you plan
to use the CD player with AC
power for an extended period of
time (8 hours or more), remove
the special nickel-cadmium batter-
ies to prevent overcharging.
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 + 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.
4. Plug the other end of the adapter
into a standard AC outlet.
