On safety
• Should any solid objects or liquid fall into the CD player, unplug

any further.
• Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 4.5 V (external
power input) jack.
On power sources
• When you are not using the CD player for a long time, disconnect
all power sources from the CD player.
On the AC power adaptor
• Use only the AC power adaptor supplied. If
your player is not supplied with an AC power
adaptor, use a commercially-available AC
power adaptor* (rated output voltage/current:
4.5 V DC/700 mA). Do not use any other AC
power adaptor. It may cause a malfunction.
Polarity of the
plug
* The voltage of power supply is different depending on the country.
Please buy an AC power adaptor in the country where the product
is to be used.
• Depending on the AC power adaptor, noise may be heard while
using the system. Refer to the operating instructions of the AC
power adaptor.
• Do not touch the AC power adaptor with wet hands.
• Connect the AC power adaptor to an easily accessible AC outlet.
Should you notice an abnormality in the AC power adaptor,
disconnect it from the AC outlet immediately.
On dry batteries
• Do not throw the batteries into fire.
• Do not carry the batteries with coins or other metallic objects.
It can generate heat if the positive and negative terminals of the
battery are accidentally contacted by a metallic object.
• Do not mix new batteries with old ones.
• Do not use different types of batteries together.
• When the batteries are not to be used for a long time, remove them.
• If battery leakage occurs, wipe off any deposit in the battery
compartment, and install new batteries. In case the deposit
adheres to you, wash it off thoroughly.

you do so, the lens may be damaged and the CD player will not
operate properly.
