POSITIONING THE PLAYER

Place the player on a firm level surface where it is un-
likely to be knocked over or fall.
Do NOT operate the player on your knee or on the rear 
seat of a travelling vehicle as erratic movement will 

cause the player to skip tracks and may damage the 

disc and the player.

HANDSET PREPARATION

Remove the safety strip from the battery compart-
ment. The handset is now ready for use.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If the handset behaves erratically or fails to operate 
the battery should be replaced.

1:

 Press the catch at the side of the battery compart-

ment.  Slide out the battery cage

2:

 Remove the old battery. Place the new battery in 

the cage with the polarity as shown. Close the cage.

Observe all battery cautions on the Inside Front Cover.

USING THE HANDSET

Point the handset directly at 
the  infrared receiving win-
dow of the player. The hand-
set must be no more than 3 
metres from the player and 
at an angle of no more than 
30º for reliable operation.

Note: 

If handset operation is erratic in bright sunlight,  

relocate the player to a shady location.

CONNECTING THE DC ADAPTOR

Connect the DC plug of the supplied adaptor into the
Player. Plug the Adaptor into the mains point and switch 
on at the mains. The player is now ready for use.

I

f the player is not going to be used for a while, discon-

nect the adaptor from the player and the mains supply.

CAUTION: 

The means of disconnection from the mains 

supply is the adaptor. This must at all times be acces-
sible and capable of being unplugged from the mains.

PORTABLE OPERATION

If you want to use the player without mains power you 
will need to charge the battery. The battery should be
be charged only when the player is switched off.
The amount of time taken to charge the battery de-
pends on the amount of residual charge remaining 
but it could take up to eight hours.
When the battery is charging the light at the side of 
the player will glow RED. When the battery is fully 
charged the light will go out. You may now discon-
nect the mains adaptor.

DURING BATTERY OPERATION:

If there is no display when the player is turned on:

This is not a fault condition- but due to a flat battery.

•  Switch  the  player  off,  connect  the  charger  as  de-

scribed above and charge the battery for six hours. 

When the battery is running out:

•  After a short period the player will shut down. 

•  You must charge the battery as soon as possible.

To conserve power:

• 

Always switch the player off when it is not con-

nected to the adaptor or you will drain the battery.

• 

Follow all the care advice to keep your battery in 

good condition.
