SAFETY CERTIFICATION
This Compact Disc Player is made and tested to meet safety standards of the FCC, requirements
andcompliancewithsafetyperformanceoftheU.S.DepartmentofHealthandHumanServices,and
also with FDA Radiation Performance Standards 21 CFR Subchapter J.
LASER SAFETY
This unit employs an optical laser beam system in the CD
mechanism, designed with built-in safeguards. Do not attempt to
disassemble; refer to qualified service personnel. Exposure to this
invisible laser light beam may be harmful to the human eye.
THIS IS A CLASS-1 LASER PRODUCT. USE OF CONTROLS, OR

ADJUSTMENTS OR PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE
OPEN AND INTERLOCK FAILED OR
SPECIFIED HEREIN, MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS LASER

CHARGING AND USE OF RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
LISTENING WITH EARPHONES
Rechargeable Battery Operation
Connect the plug of the stereo earphones
into the PHONES (GREEN) socket.
This unit can fully recharge the specified rechargeable battery in approxi-
mately 15 hours. The rechargeable batteries (NOT supplied) should be
recharged before they are used for the first time, if they are low in power or
they have not been used for a long period (over 60 days).
Caution: Avoid excessive volume level and
listening to sound for a long period of time
when using earphones.
1. Open the battery compartment
cover and insert two of the recom-
mended rechargeable batteries,
matching polarity. (1.2V 650mA)
BOTH BATTERIES MUST BE RE-
CHARGEABLE .
! Adjust volume to the desired level.
To Emphasize the bass sound
Set the BASS BOOST switch to the ON position.
Note: The bass boost performance will depend on
the VOLUME control setting.
2. Plug in the AC adaptor (not
included). Set the Fuction Switch
to CD mode and the Charge Switch
to the ON position to start charging.
USE ONLY THE AC ADAPTOR
(NOTINLCUDED)RECOMMENDED
WITH THE UNIT FOR CHARGING.
Note: Charge indicator will
illuminate.
3. After 15 hours, unplug the AC adap-
tor (not included) and switch the
Charge Switch to the OFF position.

HOLD Switch
This switch prevents accidental selection of an
unwanted function during playback, stop mode
or tuner mode. ("icon" will show on the display.)
In the HOLD “ON” position, no function button
on the unit can be operated (except OPEN).
Moving the switch to the “OFF” position will al-
low the unit to return to normal operation.
4. If the operating time decreases drastically even when the rechargeable
nickel-cadmium batteries are properly recharged, purchase a new set of
rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries. Dispose of nickel cadmium accord-
ing to local environmental laws.
5. When charging new batteries or if the batteries have not been charged for
a long time, playing time may be reduced. In this case, charge and dis-
charge the batteries several times.
NOTE:
-
Do not attempt to recharge, short-circuit, disassemble, heat or throw
the batteries into fire.
-
-
Do not mix battery types. e.g. alkaline with zinc carbonate.
When inserting new batteries, replace all at the same time. Do not
mix old and new batteries.
-
Weak batteries can leak and severely damage the unit.

is activated.
To search forward at high speed
Press and hold the SKIP UP button
"
"
When the digital anti-shock function is switched “ON” or “OFF”, the sound
will be interrupted. This is normal.

cause skipping or noise thereby affecting performance of the “ANTI-
SHOCK” system.
Low level audio will still be heard during the search process to assist in
locating the correct point in the track.

BATTERYREPLACEMENT
When the information on the display becomes dim, it is a “LOW
BATTERY”indication. Replace with a new set of normal batteries or charge
the rechargeable batteries (refer to the operation of “CHARGING AND USE
OF RECHAGEBLE BATTERIES”) to get the unit back to normal performance.
Dispose of batteries according to local environmental laws.
Note: Keep the earphones connected to PHONES jack of the player. The
earphones cord works as the FM antenna.
TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR RADIO RECEPTION
When auto scanning does not stop at any station, or the reception is poor, it
may be due to weakness of signal at the location you are standing, or
external interference. Please check as follows:
"
Change the location where you are standing.
Fine tune the station by step up (Tuning Button Up ) or down (Tuning Button
"
Down). See location of controls on page 2.
Use manual tuning to get the desired station if above suggestions are not
"
providing satisfactory results.
STEREO ICON (in FM band only)
When the FM stereo signal is strong enough, the “((ST))” icon will appear.
