Using with Batteries
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).
WHEN
SHOWS OR FLASHES IN THE DISPLAY
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).
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 8 hours of continuous use for CD play
and 5 hours longer for radio use.
Insert two size “AA” alkaline batteries
according to the + and - markings on
the back cabinet.
NOTE 1:
The display is blank when you listen to the radio, so when the display
does not show anything, please check if the CD/RADIO FUNCTION switch
is moved to the CD position.
Power your CD player by connecting an optional (not included) AC ADAPTOR or by
inserting 2 size “AA” fresh alkaline batteries.
NOTE:
Before you buy an 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 & current (mA) before buying an AC ADAPTOR.
NOTE 2:
The radio may work normally for about 5 hours when “
” shows or
flashes on the display indicating batteries are weak for CD play, but still
OK for the radio.
NOTE 3:
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.
