POWER SOURCES
Power your CD player by connecting an optional AC ADAPTOR or by inserting 4 size
AA fresh alkaline batteries.
NOTE: The only AC ADAPTOR suitable for this player is DC 4.5V 600mA, with polarity
, others may damage your player. Please check voltage + current (mA)
before buying an AC ADAPTOR.
Using with batteries
Insert 4 size AA alkaline batteries
according to the + and - markings on
the back cabinet near the BATTERY
COMPARTMENT DOOR.
Tips on battery use
Reversing polarities will damage the batteries and possibly your set. Be sure to
follow polarity ( + and - ) as indicated.
Do not mix different types together (Alkaline, Carbon-Zinc, Nickel-Cadmium etc.),
or old batteries with new ones.
When not in use for an extended period of time, or while internal batteries will not
be used, remove them to prevent possible acid leakage or corrosion resulting in
damage to your player.
When the batteries have become discharged, they must be disposed of in a safe
manner that complies with all applicable laws.
Installation of batteries should only be done by an adult (for safety).
Alkaline battery life
Bear in mind that battery life expectancy is based upon volume listening levels.
Maximum battery power consumption happens at maximum settings. Typical life
for 4 size AA alkaline batteries is about 16 hours of continuous use.
When
shows or flashes in the display
If the alkaline batteries are weak and discharged, this symbol
shows or
flashes in the display, then the power automatically turns off. If this occurs, replace
the alkaline batteries (also if display does not show anything, the batteries are
dead).

MAINTENANCE
Handling Compact Discs
Cleaning the lens
Dirty, scratched or warped discs may
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 the instructions
below.

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.

dust, etc. Prolonged exposure to
extreme temperatures can warp the disc
(such as leaving the discs in your car
during summertime).
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 either
side of disc. Sharp writing instruments,
or the inks used in some felt-tip pens, may
damage its surface.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not take the set apart. The laser beam used in the set may harm your eyes. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel only.
Do not insert pins or coins, clips, or any objects inside the set.
This set is equipped with a safety device which automatically turns the laser beam off
when the disc door is opened.
Do not drop the set or subject it to strong shocks. Doing so could result in damage.
Do not place the set in locations where the temperature is high, or in humid or dusty
locations, or locations with long heavy vibrations, or tilted surfaces.
The sets cabinet may warp or the set may otherwise be damaged if it is placed in direct
sunlight, near heaters (where the temperature is 1400F/600C or higher) or in cars with
the windows closed.
In the summer, the temperature may get as high as 2120F /1000C or more.
Use the set within a temperature range of 410F/ 50C to 950F / 350C.
Use ONLY the DC 4.5V 600mA AC Adaptor with polarity
, others may damage
your set. Disconnect the Adaptor from the wall outlet when the set is not to be used for
an extended period of time (3 days or more).
When cleaning your set, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use solvents or commercially
available cleaners, as they may damage or discolor the finish.
Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle. This could create a traffic
hazard and is illegal in many areas. Do not use this set when bicycling or running.
The headphones supplied with your set provide superb stereo listening while allowing
you to hear some outside sounds when listening at normally low volume levels. Listening
at extremely high volume levels minimizes the intrusion of outside noise/sounds. In the
interest of safety, it is strongly advised against the use while engaging in activities
where the exclusion of external sounds (whistles, horns, sirens, traffic, etc.) could be
hazardous. Also loud volume can hurt your ears. If you notice that the sound has
become weak or distorted or if tracks do not change, this is an indication that your
batteries are low. Replace both batteries at the same time (see BATTERY OPERATION).
Your CD-50 is identified by a serial number located in the Battery Compartment. Record
this number in the space provided below.
Model CD-50 Serial No.
Date Purchased:
This booklet contains detailed information on its safety and use. Please read it carefully
so that you may take full advantage of its many features, and ensure a safe reliable
operation. Keep this booklet for future reference.
CONDENSATION
If cold water is poured into a glass, water droplets form on the outside of the glass.
This is called condensation. Condensation may occur on internal operating parts of the
lens.
Condensation occurs:
When the set is brought from the cold outdoors into a warm room, or if it is in a cold
room to a room which is heated, or in the summer, if the set is moved from an air-
conditioned room or car to a hot or humid location.
Should condensation occur, the set may not operate properly. Open the CD Door and
wait for about 20 minutes (to allow the internal parts to adjust to the surrounding
temperature) before using the set.
