USING AC POWER

You can power the CD player from standard AC power using an AC adapter, such as Cat. No. 273-1664 (not supplied).

Cautions:

•You must use an AC adapter that supplies 6 volts and deliv- ers at least 550 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to posi- tive, and its plug must correctly fit the CD player’s EXT DC 6V jack. The recommended AC adapter meets these specifica- tions. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifica- tions could damage the CD player or the adapter.

•When you finish using the AC adapter, disconnect it from the AC outlet first, then unplug it from the CD player.

Follow these steps to use an AC adapter.

EXT DC 6V

1.Attach the 4.0 mm outer diame- ter/1.7 mm inner diameter barrel plug to the adapter cord, match- ing positive (+) on the plug with TIP on the cord.

2.Set the adapter’s voltage switch to 6V.

3.Insert the adapter’s barrel plug into the CD player’s EXT DC 6V jack.

Note: Battery power discon- nects when you connect an AC adapter to the CD player (unless you are using a special- order nickel-cadmium battery pack).

4.Plug the other end of the adapter into a standard AC out- let.
