HANDLING CDS

Always hold the CD by the edges and always keep it in its protective case
or sleeve when it is not in use.  Fingerprints and scratches on the CD's
surface can prevent the laser beam from correctly reading the digital
information.

PLAYING A CD

The CD player can play standard or 3-inch CDs.  Follow these steps to play
a CD.

1.  Select a power source.

2.  Set VOLUME to the minimum level.

3.  Plug a pair of stereo headphones with a 1/8-inch plug (not included)
    into the CD player's headphones jack.

    Your local Radio Shack store sells a wide variety of stereo headphones.

4.  Set POWER ON/OFF to ON.

5.  Press OPEN and lift open the disc cover.

    CAUTION:  Remove the sticker and plastic laser track protector before
              you operate the CD player.  Trying to play a CD with the
              protector in place could damage the player.

6.  Carefully place the CD label side up over the disc compartment's
    center hub.  Be sure to lay the disc flat in the compartment.

7.  Close the disc cover.  The display shows the total number of tracks.
    Then, 0 appears on the display.

8.  Put on the headphones.  Then, press PLAY/PAUSE.  Track 1 begins to
    play and the display shows the current track number.

    Adjust VOLUME for a comfortable listening level.

    To enhance the bass sound, set E-BASS OUT/IN to IN.

    When the last track finishes playing, the CD player automatically
    stops and displays 0.

    To stop playing the CD before it ends, press STOP/CLEAR.

Hearing Comfort and Your Health

Do not listen at extremely high volume levels, especially when using
headphones.  Extended high-volume listening can lead to permanent hearing
loss.

Traffic Safety

Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle.
This can create a traffic hazard and is illegal in some areas.

Even though some headphones are designed to let you hear some outside
sounds when listening at normal volume levels, they still present a traffic
hazard.

SPECIAL FEATURES

The CD player includes the following special features:

    Automatic Search Music System (ASMS)

    Audible Search

    Sequence Programming

    Intro Scan

locate a specific section of a track.  During audible search, the CD plays
at a lower volume and a higher speed.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

You can use the supplied remote control to operate the VOLUME, PLAY/PAUSE,

case.  To connect the remote control, follow these steps:

1.  Plug the remote control's smaller plug into the CD player's REMOTE
    jack.

2.  Plug the remote control's other plug into the CD player's headphones
    jack.

3.  Set the remote control's VOL control to the minimum position.

    NOTE:  If the CD player's main volume control is set to minimum, the
           remote control's volume control has no effect.

4.  Connect a pair of stereo headphones with a 1/8-inch plug into the
    remote control's headphones jack.

NOTE:  The remote control's volume control is secondary to the CD player's
       volume control.  To prevent distortion, never set the CD player's
       volume control above the maximum intended volume level.

USING THE CD PLAYER WITH YOUR HOME AUDIO SYSTEM

You can use your CD player with your home audio system so that you can
benefit from the system's amplifier and full-size speakers.

Connect the supplied Y-cable's 1/8-inch plug to the CD player's LINE OUT
jack.  Then, connect the phono plugs on the other end of the cable to the
CD, AUX, or TV audio input jacks on your amplifier/receiver.  If the jacks
on your equipment do not match the plugs on the cable, check your local
Radio Shack store for the proper adapter.

NOTE:  The CD player's and remote control's VOL control affects the volume
       level only when you connect headphones.

CAUTION:  To avoid speaker damage, set your amplifier/receiver's volume
          control to the minimum level before you play a CD.  After the CD
          player begins to play, slowly increase the volume.

Other Connection Options

You can connect amplified speakers to your CD player.  Your local Radio
Shack store sells a selection of these speakers.

You can also listen to the CD player through your car's stereo, using a
CD-to-cassette adapter (Cat. No. 12-1951).
