5. When you finish using the AC
adapter, disconnect it from the AC
outlet first, then unplug it from the
CD player.
Note:
Always unplug the AC adapter
before using the CD player with alkaline
batteries. Otherwise the player will not
operate.
USING VEHICLE
BATTERY POWER
You can power the CD player from a ve-
hicle’s 12V power source (such as ciga-
rette-lighter socket) using a 4.5-volt,
600-mA DC adapter and a size B
Adaptaplug adapter (neither supplied).
Both adapters are available at your lo-
cal RadioShack store.
Cautions:
You must use an adapter
that supplies 4.5 volts DC
and delivers at least 600
mA. Its center tip must be set to
positive and its plug must fit the CD
player's
DC IN 4.5V
jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these
specifications could damage the CD
player or the adapter.
Always connect the DC adapter to
the CD player before you connect it
to the power source. When you fin-
ish, disconnect the adapter from the
power source before you discon-
nect it from the CD player.
Follow these steps to connect the CD
player to vehicle battery power.
1. Insert the recommended Adapta-
plug adapter into the DC adapter’s
cord, setting TIP to + (positive).
2. Set the DC adapter’s voltage switch
to 4.5V.
3. Insert the DC adapter’s barrel plug
into the CD player’s
DC IN 4.5V
jack.
4. Plug the other end of the adapter
into your vehicle's cigarette-lighter
socket.
5. When you finish using the DC
adapter, disconnect it from the vehi-
cle’s cigarette-lighter socket first,
then unplug it from the CD player.
Note:
Always unplug the DC adapter
before using the CD player with alkaline
batteries. Otherwise the player will not
operate.
