IMPORTANT
Since CD circuitry may cause interference to other radio tuners nearby,
switch this unit off when not in use or move it away from the affected radio
tuner.
NOTE: This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio
noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the Radio Interference
Regulations of Industry Canada. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television (which can be determined by turning the equipment off),
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.

PREPARATIONFORUSE
REMOVE THE TRANSIT CARD
This personal CD player is shipped with a dummy CD ‘transit card ‘ inside the CD
compartment. The purpose of this card is to prevent the laser from moving during
shipment of the product. This card must be removed before using the CD player.
Slide the OPEN switch to the right to unlock the CD door. Remove the ‘transit card’
from the player and discard it.
POWER SOURCES
This personal CD player is designed to operate on two “AA” batteries, not included.
Use a well known brand of Alkaline batteries for longest life and best performance.
This player can also be operated with an optional AC/DC converter/adapter, not
included. If you decide to purchase an optional AC/DC adapter the specification
must be as follows:
Input: 120V 60Hz AC
Output: 4.5V DC, 500 mA.
Plug: Female Type with Positive Center,
You may also purchase a “Universal” type AC/DC adapter which allows you to
select the required output voltage and plug polarity, and normally includes multiple
plug sizes to fit most brands of equipment.

INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
Note: The battery compartment is located on bottom cabinet.
1.) Slide the battery door in the direction of the ‘Arrow’ to open the battery door
and lift it up as shown.
2.) Inserttwoalkaline“AA”batteries(not included) in the batterycompartment. Be
sure to observe the polarity markings engraved on the battery door. If the
batteries are inserted incorrectly the unit will not work.
3.) Close the battery door, and push the battery door inward until you hear a ‘click’
sound to lock the door again.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
When the battery symbol flashes in the display the batteries are becoming
weak and should be replaced.Always replace both batteries at the same time with
new fresh alkaline batteries. Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of
batteries together.
If the display remains blank when you press the PLAY/PAUSE button, the
batteries are completely dead. Replace them immediately. If dead batteries are
left inside the battery compartment for a long period of time they may leak and
cause damage to the unit, and such damage or corrosion from leaking batteries is
not covered by your warranty.
