5. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. The batteries may leak  
corrosive electrolyte or explode.  
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with this product by  
heating them. Sudden release of the battery electrolyte may cause burns or  
irritation to eyes or skin.  
7. All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh and discharged  
batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the batteries.

gets distorted.  
11. Do not store this product in high temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in  
a freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of extending shelf life should  
be protected from condensation during storage and defrosting. Batteries should  
be stabilized at room temperature prior to use after cold storage.

CHOOSING THE POWER SOURCES  
You can use the AC power or batteries as a power source.  
To a wall outlet  
NOTE: One blade of  
plug and outlet is wider.  
BATTERY DOOR  
AC SOCKET  
(on the bottom of the set)  
TIP:  
1. Connecting the AC power  
If the plug of the AC power  
cord does not match your  
outlet, do not force it.  
Reverse it and try again.  
The plug is polarized and  
only fits one way into the  
wall outlet and rear of the  
set.  
Insert one end of the supplied AC power cord into the  
socket located at the rear of the set, and the other  
end into the 120V, 60 Hz standard household outlet.  
2. Using the player on batteries  
Insert 8 size Cbatteries (not supplied) into the  
battery compartment as shown. Observe (+) and  
(-) polarities.  
To use the player on batteries, disconnect the AC  
power cord from both the outlet and the back of the  
player.  
Replace all the batteries  
with new ones when the  
LCD display dims or the  
player stops operating.  
Before you replace all the  
batteries, be sure to take  
out the disc from the player  
and remember to check the  
Battery Safety Instructions  
on Page 3.  
If the discs do not play on  
batteries, this means the  
batteries are almost used  
up. But the radio may  
continue to play on these  
weak batteries because it  
uses less power than the  
disc player.

them as .MP3(DOT MP3) or .WMA(DOT WMA) files. Do not save them as  
.DOC or .TXT, .PDF etc. when downloading, converting or saving files as MP3

ABOUT MP3”  
WHAT IS MP3?  
SETTINGS FOR COMPRESSION  
SOFTWARE AND WRITING  
SOFTWARE  
MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer-3) is  
a
standard technology and format for  
compressing a sound sequence or song.  
The file is compressed to about 1/10 of its  
original size. Sounds outside the range of  
human hearing are compressed while the  
sounds we can hear are not compressed.  
To compress a source for an MP3 file,  
we recommend setting the transfer bit  
rate of the compression software to  
44.1 kHz, 128kbps, and Constant  
Bit Rate.  
Please check the maximum capacity  
PLAYABLE MP3FILES ON  
of your CD-R / CD-RW as they come  
in a different capacity ranges.  
THIS PLAYER  
You can only play MP3 files recorded by  
following requirements.  
To record at one time up to the  
maximum capacity on media that has  
nothing recorded it, set to Disc at  
Once.  
NOTE: While this player can play most  
MP3 files it cannot play all files  
and may not play all MP3  
formats.  
NOTES FOR SAVING FILES ON  
THE MEDIA  
Usable media  
When the disc is inserted, the player reads  
all the files on that disc. If there are many  
folders or non-MP3/WMA files on the disc,  
it may take a long time for play to begin or  
for the next MP3/WMA file to start play.  
CD-Rs and CD-RWs  
Usable disc format  
You can use ISO 9660 Level 1/2 and  
Joliet extension format discs.  
Do not save unnecessary folders or files  
other than MP3 or WMA ones in the disc to  
be used for MP3 listening.  
DO NOT record any other files other than  
MP3 or WMA files on the CD disc. If you  
record non-mp3 files onto the CD disc, the  
player may not operate properly. Please  
record only MP3 or WMA files onto the CD  
disc.  
NOTE: CD-Rs or CD-RWs playback  
capability at this CD/MP3 player  
may vary depending on quality of  
media, CD-Burner, speed of  
burning and application software.  
The major specification of the usable disc  
format is:  
Maximum directory steps: 8  
Usable characters for a file/folder  
name: A - Z, 0 - 9, _ (underscore)  
Maximum number of characters for  
a file name: 64 and a 3-character  
extension code  
NOTES  
When naming, be sure to add the file  
extension mp3or wmato the file  
name.  
If you put the extension mp3to a file  
other than an MP3 file, the player  
cannot recognize the file properly.  
NOTE: For best results and for the best  
reading ability, try to make your  
MP3 recordings at lower speeds.  
The most accurate speed that we  
tested for playability is 4X.  
The file name does not correspond  
to the ID tag.

PRECAUTIONS  
On Safety  
On Power Sources  
Do not open the cabinet. As the laser

may be harmful to the eyes, do not  
attempt to disassemble the cabinet.  
Refer servicing to qualified personnel  
only.  
batteries. We recommend alkaline  
batteries for longer life.  
When the batteries will not be used for a  
few weeks or more, remove them to  
avoid damage that can be caused by  
battery leakage or corrosion.  
Should any solid object or liquid fall  
into the player, unplug the player, and  
have it checked by qualified personnel  
before operating it any further.  
On Operation  
If the player is brought directly from a  
cold to a warm location, or is placed  
in a very damp room, moisture may  
condense on the lens inside the DISC  
player section. Should this occur, the  
player will not operate properly. In  
this case, remove the DISC and wait  
about an hour for the moisture to  
evaporate.  
On Placement  
Do not leave the player in a location near  
a heat source, or in a place subject to  
direct sunlight, excessive dust or  
mechanical shock.  
Do not place the player on an inclined or  
unstable place.  
Do not place anything within 1 inch of  
This player has an anti-skip feature,

holes must not be covered for the player  
to operate properly and prolong the life  
of its components.  
small bumps will not stop the music.  
However this set must play a few  
minutes for the anti-skip feature to  
become active.  
If the player is left in a car parked in the  
sun, be sure to choose a location in the  
car where the player will not be  
subjected to the direct rays of the sun.  
Since a strong magnet is used for the  
speakers, keep personal credit cards  
using magnetic coding or springwound  
watches away from the player to prevent  
possible damage from the magnets.

MAINTENANCE  
Cleaning the lens  
Handling Discs  
cause skipping or noise.  
A dirty lens will cause sound skipping. If  
the lens is very dirty, the player may not  
work. We suggest using a special cleaning  
disk (not included) available in most music  
and Hi-Fi stores. However, if you do not  
have one, you may use a cotton swab very  
slightly dampened with alcohol to clean the  
lens.  
Dirty, scratched or warped discs may  
Handle the disc only by the edges. To  
keep clean, do not touch its surface.  
Discs should be stored in their cases  
after use to avoid scratches.  
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight,  
high humidity, high temperatures, or  
dust, etc. Prolonged exposure to  
extreme temperatures can warp the  
disc (such as leaving the discs in  
your car during summer time).  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Wipe with a soft cloth. If the cabinet is  
very dirty, dampen (not dripping wet) the  
cloth with a weak solution of soapy water,  
and then wipe clean.  
Do not stick or write anything on the  
music side of disc. Sharp writing  
instruments, or the inks used in some  
felt-tip pens, may damage its surface.  
Cleaning the Discs  
Fingerprints should be carefully wiped  
To remove the Disc  
from the surface of disc with a soft  
cloth. Unlike conventional records,  
compact discs have no grooves to  
collect dust and microscopic dirt, so  
gently wiping them with a soft cloth  
should remove most particles. Wipe in  
a straight motion from the center to  
the edge.  
Open the CD DOOR by lifting the CD  
DOOR, hold the disc by the edge while  
slightly pressing on the center spindle,  
then lift it from the edge to release and  
remove.  
NOTE  
Always press the STOP button and wait  
for the disc to stop rotating before  
opening the CD DOOR to remove the  
disc.  
Never use thinner, benzine, record  
cleaner or antistatic spray on a compact  
disc. Such chemicals can damage its  
plastic surface.
