2. Do not dispose the batteries into a fire. The cells may explode. Check with  
local codes for possible special disposal instructions.  
3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and  
may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.  
4. Be careful when handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting  
materials such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may  
over heat and cause burns.  
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 dis-  
charged batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the batteries.  
8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity (  
and  
) or  
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of some or all of the batteries  
may result in battery electrolyte leakage or explosion.  
9. Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be used for a long  
period of time (several months or more) since during the period the batteries  
could leak, damaging the product.  
10. Discard weak or dead batteries as soon as possible since they are more likely  
to leak in the product. Batteries should be replaced (depending on the product)  
when the display gets dim or if the Low Battery Indicator shows or if the sound  
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.  
12. If this product does not operate normally, see TROUBLE SHOOTING in this  
instruction manual. If you can’t resolve the problem, or if the product is damaged,  
refer to the LENOXX WARRANTY INFORMATION. Opening or removing  
covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect  
reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance is subsequently used.

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

General Information  
1. Usually, you must “write” your own MP3 disc on your computer’s CD writer.  
Or, you may buy pre-recorded MP3 discs from some “on line” sources.  
2. When saving songs (audio files) onto your CD-R (or CD-RW), you must  
save them as “.MP3” (DOT MP3) files. Do not save them as .DOC or  
.TEXT, .PDF etc. when downloading, converting or saving files as MP3 files.  
3. Do not save TEXT files as “.MP3” files because they will not play and they  
may interfere with the set.  
4. Do not attempt to combine normal CD audio tracks and MP3 tracks onto  
one CD because the set will only recognize the audio tracks and play those.

BASIC INTRODUCTION TO MP3  
MP3 files are music files which have been compressed into the MP3 format.  
The player plays MP3 files which have been written onto a CD disc.  
The first thing you will need is an  
IBM compatible PC computer (at  
least Pentium class) or an apple  
computer (at least G3 class) with  
lots of RAM and a CD-R or CD-RW  
writer. Then you will need some  
software. (Either it is in your new  
computer already or you may have to  
buy this from MusicMatch or a similar  
company. You may go to the  
www.nero.com.)  
You will also need blank CD’s that  
are recordable, these are called  
CD-R or CD-RW (CD-R discs can  
be recorded on only once, CD-RW  
can be erased and rewritten but are  
much more expensive).  
Successful recording of a CD needs  
an uninterrupted stream of high  
speed data. For best results, limit or  
close your other programs on the  
computer while recording to prevent  
buffer underruns or empty spots on  
the disc.  
To play MP3 files on this player, you  
will need to make (record) a disc with  
these MP3 files on them.  
(NOTE: You can also learn all about  
MP3 at the mp3.com site)  
We recommend you get some books  
or information from the internet to help  
you learn this exciting new way to  
store & play hundreds of songs in  
MP3 format. Also you may search  
the web for “MP3” and you will  
immediately find a world of information  
and songs.  
You can play MP3 songs on most  
computers of today or you can  
highlight them for downloading &  
“burning” (recording) them onto a  
CD later. Note this player will play  
MP3 songs which end in the extension  
“.MP3” (dot MP3). You can select how  
to save a file, select .MP3 as the  
correct extension on your computer.  
NOTE: Most audio CD players cannot  
play MP3 files. This player can  
play both MP3 and normal  
music files. (It WILL NOT play  
CDs that have BOTH MP3 and  
normal audio files on the same  
CD.)  
If you want to convert your existing  
records or tapes to MP3 discs, you  
will need to record them using a sound  
card with appropriate jacks. You will  
also need software such as  
MusicMatch or RealJukebox and a  
set of audio cables to connect your  
tape player to your sound card.  
To download an MP3 file (song) from  
a search link at the top of the  
homepage that allows you to search  
for MP3 files. Input a key word and  
click on that link and you will find many  
songs by many new artists. To  
download an MP3 file, click on  
software, then get MP3 link or newer  
software, register and click on  
download. We recommend you make  
a new folder for MP3 files.  
If you want to record your favorite  
music CDs as an MP3, you need to  
convert them into MP3 format.  
Ripping is the term used for  
converting audio files into MP3  
format.  
MP3 opens a whole new world of  
music to you. Learn about this  
exciting new format and enjoy.

ABOUT “MP3”  
WHAT IS THE 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. 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  
PLAYABLE “MP3” FILES ON  
THIS PLAYER  
You can only play MP3 files recorded  
by following requirements.  
capacity of your CD-R / CD-RW as  
they come in a different capacity  
ranges.  
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.  
Usable media  
CD-Rs and CD-RWs  
NOTES FOR SAVING FILES  
ON THE MEDIA  
When the disc is inserted, the player  
reads all the files on that disc. If there  
are many folders or non-MP3 files on  
the disc, it may take a long time for play  
to begin or for the next MP3 file to start  
play.  
Usable disc format  
You can use ISO 9660 Level 1/2 and  
Joliet extension format discs. This unit  
can display only 1-byte characters. (2-  
byte characters like those of Japanese  
are displayed as “-.”)  
Do not save unnecessary folders or  
files other than MP3 ones in the disc to  
be used for MP3 listening.  
The major specification of the usable  
disc format is:  
DO NOT record any other files other than  
MP3 files on the CD. If you record non-  
mp3 files onto the CD, the player may  
not operate properly. Please record  
ONLY MP3 files onto the CD.  
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  
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.  
NOTES  
When naming. be sure to add the file  
extension “mp3” to the file name.  
If you put the extension “mp3” to 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.

beam used in the DISC player section  
may be harmful to the eyes, do not  
attempt to disassemble the cabinet.  
Refer servicing to qualified personnel  
only.  
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  
On Placement  
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.  
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  
the back of the cabinet. The ventilation  
holes must not be covered for the  
player to operate properly and prolong  
the life of its components.  
This player has an anti-skip feature,  
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  
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 cause skipping or noise.  
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 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.  
To remove the Disc  
Open the CD DOOR by lifting the CD  
DOOR, hold the disc by the edge while  
slightly pressing on the center spindle  
as illustrated, then lift it from the edge  
to release and remove.  
NOTE  
Never use thinner, benzine, record  
Always press the STOP button and  
wait for the disc to stop rotating before  
opening the CD DOOR to remove the  
disc.
