POWER SOURCES
Using with Batteries
Insert 2 size AA alkaline batteries
according to the + and - markings in
the BATTERY COMPARTMENT.
2
WHEN SHOWS IN THE DISPLAY
ALKALINE BATTERY LIFE
Bear in mind that battery life expectancy is based upon volume and bass listening
levels.
Maximum battery power consumption happens at maximum settings. Typical life for 2
size AA alkaline batteries is above 7.5 hours of continuous use for CD play.
NOTE: You may use rechargeable batteries on this set. However, because
rechargeable batteries generally have lower voltage (1.2 volts instead of
1.5 volts). Your playing time will be much less than normal fresh alkaline
batteries.
While CD playing, if the alkaline batteries are weak and discharged, this symbol  
shows or flashes in the display, then the power automatically turns off. If this occurs,
replace the alkaline batteries (also if the display does not show anything, the batteries
are dead).
Power your CD player by connecting an optional AC ADAPTOR or by inserting 2 size
AA fresh alkaline batteries.
NOTE: Before you buy an optional AC Adaptor, please note the only AC ADAPTOR
suitable for this player is DC 4.5V 600mA, with polarity , others may
damage your player. Please check voltage and current (mA) before buying an
AC ADAPTOR.
TIPS ON BATTERY USE
Reversing polarities will damage the batteries and possibly your set. Be sure to
follow polarity ( + and - ) as indicated.
Do not mix different types together (Alkaline, Carbon-Zinc, Nickel-Cadmium etc.),
or old batteries with new ones.
When not in use for an extended period of time, or while internal batteries will not
be used, remove them to prevent possible acid leakage or corrosion resulting in
damage to your player.
When the batteries have become discharged, they must be disposed of in a safe
manner that complies with all applicable laws.
Installation of batteries should only be done by an adult (for safety).

IB-CD85(21A-60C9)-WM-E-010603
This set is designed with the latest 60 second ESP PLUSTM (Electronic Shock Protection)
- which allows virtually unlimited gentle skip protection above the normal 60 second
shock protection.
When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed, the   (memory
basket) indicator will appear in the display, the digital data (music)
is stored in the read-ahead memory buffer before it is decoded
and played.
The 60 second ESP PLUSTM function prevents the sound from skipping by using a
buffer memory that stores music data. The new 60 second ESP PLUSTM system can
store more music than normal 60 second anti-skip systems.
60 SECOND ESP PLUSTM ANTI-SKIP SYSTEM
This new design allows gentle swaying of the set (as in walking) without music skipping.
This function (CD ESP PLUSTM) may not work during heavy jogging.
8
The 60 second ESP PLUSTM function will turn on automatically when the PLAY/PAUSE
button is pressed.
EMPTY MEMORY
The   mark changes to the   mark, indicating that the
memory buffer (basket) is full.
When the set is subject to a shock or a bump during play, the
data stored in memory continues to be decoded and played.
This gives the pickup time to stabilize and continue reading
new music. As the data is used from memory, the indicator
changes from   to  . Once the pickup returns to its
original position, new data is stored in memory and the display
changes back to the   mark.
If the set is subject to repeated shocks and all the data stored
in memory is used up, the   mark is displayed and the
sound will skip or stop for a brief period until the memory basket
has time to fill up again.
NOTE:
- The music may stop if the player receives continuous shocking.
- You may hear noise or skipping if the CD is dirty or scratched.
- If you press PLAY/PAUSE, or SKIP (SEARCH) buttons, the
memory basket will empty itself temporarily.

Cleaning the cabinet
Wipe with a soft cloth. If the cabinet is
very dirty, dampen (not dripping wet) the
cloth with a weak solution of soapy water,
and then wipe clean.
Cleaning the lens
A dirty lens will cause sound skipping. If
the lens is very dirty, the player may not
work. We suggest using a special cleaning
disk (not included) available in most music
and Hi-Fi stores. However, if you do not
have one, you may use a cotton swab
very slightly dampened with alcohol to
clean the lens.
MAINTENANCE
To remove the Disc
Open the CD DOOR by sliding the DOOR
OPEN button, hold the disc by the edge
while slightly pressing on the center
spindle as illustrated, then lift it from the
edge to release and remove.
Cleaning the Discs
Fingerprints should be carefully wiped
from the surface of disc with a soft cloth.
Unlike conventional records, compact
discs have no grooves to collect dust
and microscopic dirt, so gently wiping
them with a soft cloth should remove
most particles. Wipe in a straight
motion from the center to the edge.
Handling Compact Discs
Dirty, scratched or warped discs may
cause skipping or noise.
Handle the disc only by the edges. To
keep clean, do not touch its surface.
Never use thinner, benzine, record
cleaner or antistatic spray on a compact
disc. Such chemicals can damage its
plastic surface.
Discs should be stored in their cases
after use to avoid scratches.
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight,
high humidity, high temperatures, or
dust, etc. Prolonged exposure to
extreme temperatures can warp the disc
(such as leaving the discs in your car
during summertime).
Do not stick or write anything on either
side of disc. Sharp writing instruments, or
the inks used in some felt-tip pens, may
damage its surface.
NOTE:
Always press STOP button and wait for
the disc to stop rotating before sliding the
DOOR OPEN button to remove the disc.
