Selection and care of
rechargeable /dry cell batteries
Selection
As a safety precaution, the portable CD players made by
Panasonic are constructed so it is impossible to recharge ordi-
nary batteries.
Only batteries especially designed for this unit can be recharged.
Special rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries:
P-3GAVA/2B (set of 2)
For details, check with your dealer.
If rechargeable battery play time is short after recharging, the
batteries have reached the end of their service life. Replace
them with the recommended replacements.
Play time may be shorter than usual after recharging batteries
for the rst time or after they have been unused for a long time.
Repeatedly recharge and discharge the batteries if this occurs
to restore them to normal.

Care
To prevent battery damage, electrolyte leakage and short-circuit-
ing, heed the following points.
Do not peel off the covering on batteries and do not use if the
covering has been peeled off.
Align the poles + and - correctly when inserting the batteries.
Do not mix different types or makes of batteries or old and new
batteries.
Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the unit for a
long time.
Do not throw into re, short-circuit, disassemble, or subject to
excessive heat.
Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
Do not allow metal objects to touch the battery terminals as this
may cause short-circuiting which is dangerous.
When carrying batteries in a pocket or bag, ensure no metal ob-
jects such as necklaces are placed together with them. Contact
with metal may cause short-circuiting which can cause a re.
For safety, carry the rechargeable batteries in the battery carry-
ing case.
When driving a car
In the interest of traffic safety, do not operate the unit while dri-
ving.

batteries
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with the head-
phones. Continued use may cause rashes or other allergic
reactions.
Listening caution
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or
discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discontinue use in
potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air type
designed to let you hear outside sounds, dont turn up the volume
so high that you cant hear whats around you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing comfort level
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds normal can
actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level
BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
Set the dial and leave it there.
CAUTION!
