This product contains a low power laser device.  
Follow the advice below for safe operations.  
ON PROTECTION AGAINST LASER ENERGY EXPOSURE  
·
·
·
·
·
As the laser beam used in this compact disc player is harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing.  
Stop operation immediately if any liquid or solid object should fall into the cabinet.  
Do not touch the lens or poke at it. If you do, you may damage the lens and the player may not operate properly.  
Do not put anything in the safety slot. If you do, the laser diode will be “ON” when the CD door is still open.  
If the unit is not to be used for a long period of time, make sure that all power sources are disconnected from  
the unit. Remove all batteries from the battery compartment, and unplug the AC cord from the wall outlet.  
Make it a practice to remove the AC cord by grasping the main body and not by pulling the cord.  
This unit employs a laser. The use of controls or adjustment or performance of procedures other than those  
specified here may result in exposure to hazardous radiation.  
·
ON PLACEMENT  
·
·
·
Do not use the unit in places which are extremely hot, cold, dusty or humid.  
Place the unit on a flat and even surface.  
Do not restrict the air-flow of the unit by placing it in a place with poor ventilation, by covering it with a cloth or  
by placing it on a carpet.  
ON CONDENSATION  
·
·
·
When left in a heated room where it is warm and damp, water droplets or condensation may form inside the unit.  
When there is condensation inside the unit, the unit may not function normally.  
Let it stand for 1 to 2 hours before turning the power on, or gradually heat the room up and dry the unit before use.  
Should any trouble occur, remove the power source and refer servicing to qualified personnel.

POWER SOURCE  
This AM/FM STEREO CD Cassette Recorder operates on 8 x ‘LR14’ (‘C’) batteries (not included) or  
from AC 120V~ 60Hz line power supply.  
A. BATTERY OPERATION  
1. Remove the Battery Door.  
2. Following the polarity diagram as shown in the battery compartment insert 8 x ‘LR14’ (‘C')  
batteries then replace the Battery Door.  
IMPORTANT : Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly. Wrong polarity may damage the  
unit.  
3. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.  
4. For better performance and longer operating time, we recommend the use of alkaline-type  
batteries.  
5. Do not mix old and new batteries.  
6. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium) batteries.  
7. If the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries. Old or leaking  
batteries can cause damage to the unit and may void the warranty.  
8. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture.  
(Follow battery manufacturer’s directions).  
9. Do not dispose of batteries in fire, batteries may leak or explode.  
B. AC OPERATION  
When the AC power cord (included) is connected to the AC INPUT Socket (# 17) at the back of  
the unit and the other end to a wall outlet with AC 120V ~ 60Hz power supply, the unit will  
disconnect the batteries automatically, and operate from AC power instead.  
Note: plug is used as the disconnect device. The disconnect device shall remain readily operable.  
IMPORTANT :  
This unit has a polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow blade. This plug will only  
fit into a matching polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature to reduce the possibility of electric  
shock. If this plug will not fit in your AC outlet, you probably have an outdated non-polarized  
outlet. You should have your out-dated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do  
not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adaptor to make the plug fit onto your outlet. This  
defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.

CASSETTE TAPE OPERATING TIPS  
1. High quality tapes are recommended to obtain maximum quality reproduction from recordings.  
2. Tapes with playing time of 120 minutes (C-120) are not recommended because they contain  
thinner and longer tape that has a greater chance to malfunction and jam, which may damage  
the cassette mechanism.  
3. To obtain good reproduction, the head should be cleaned after every 10 to 20 hours of use.  
It is also recommended that the cassette be kept away from excessive heat or cold.  
4. If there is slack in the tape, remove the slack prior to inserting the cassette. To remove the slack,  
insert a pencil into the hub and rotate clockwise as shown below:  
Tape Supply Reel  
Tape Take-up Reel  
5. A leader tape is provided at the beginning on each cassette. There is no recording on this area,  
so it is necessary to let the tape run for about five seconds to clear the head.  
6. Keep the tape head clean since a dirty head can cause distorted sound or improper tape speed.  
Depress the Cassette Play Button (# 28) and use a small cotton swab with tape head cleaner or  
alcohol to clean the tape head, capstan and pinch roller as shown below:
