Preparation
USING AC OR DC POWER
To power the CD player from an AC outlet or your vehicle’s bat-
tery power, you need an AC or DC adapter and a size B
Adaptaplug
(neither supplied, available at your local
RadioShack store).
Cautions:
You must use a (Class 2 for AC) power source
that supplies 4.5V DC and delivers at least 600
mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and its
plug must fit the CD player's
DC IN 4.5V
jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these specifications could dam-
age the CD player or the adapter.
• Always connect the adapter to the CD player before you
plug it into the power source, and unplug the adapter from
the power source before you unplug it from the CD player.
1. If necessary, set the adapter’s voltage switch to 4.5V.
2. Attach the Adaptaplug to the adapter’s cord with the tip set
to positive (+).
3. Insert the barrel plug into the recorder’s
DC IN 4.5V
jack.
This disconnects the internal batteries.
4. Plug the other end of the adapter into the power source.
Note: If the CD player does not operate when you use the DC
adapter, unplug the cord from the cigarette-lighter socket and
clean any ashes or debris from the socket.
