Connecting to Anothe r
Digital Audio Product You can connect the CD changer to another digital audio product such as a d ig
-
ital recorder. You need an optical cable (Cat. No. 42-2466, available by special
order through your local RadioShack store) for this connection. To make the
connection, remove the protective dust cap from the digital jacks, and connect
the optical cable to the jacks.
Connecting Power After you have connected the CD changer to your receiver or amplifier, plug the
CD changer’s power cord into a standard AC outlet.
Caution: To prevent electric shock, the plug’s blades are polarized and fit only
one way. If the plug does not fit easily, turn it over and try again. Do not force the
plug into any AC outlet.

have a cassette deck that has a CD-DECK SYNCHRO jack (such as many Opti

mus Professional Series cassette decks), the CD changer can automatically
start and stop with the cassette deck. Connect the CD-deck synchro-cord, sup-
plied with the cassette deck, to the CD changer’s and cassette deck’s CD-DECK
SYNCHRO jacks.
For details on connection and operation, refer to the cassette deck’s owner ’s
manual.
Note: If you place the CD changer too
near other audio components or their
wires, you might hear a hum when you
play a CD. Move the components or
their wires to eliminate the hum.
