General safety instructions
To avoid the risk of fi re or an electric shock, you should
not expose the device to rain or moisture. Consequently,
do not use the device in the immediate vicinity of water
- for example near a bath tub, a swimming pool or in a
damp cellar.
Use the device only for the intended purpose.
Only connect the device at a properly installed plug
socket. Pay attention that the specifi ed voltage corres-
ponds to the voltage of the plug socket.
When using external mains supply, pay attention to the
correct polarity and voltage. Always place the batteries
in the correct direction.
Assemble the device in such a way that the available
ventilation openings are not covered.
Never open the housing of the device. Incorrect repairs
can constitute a considerable risk for the user. Should
the device become damaged, in particular the mains
supply cable, do not operate the device any longer, but
rather have it repaired by an expert. Check the mains
supply cable regularly for damage.
For safety reasons a broken or damaged mains lead may
only be replaced by an equivalent lead from the manuf-
acturer, our customer service department or a similary
qualifi ed person.
If the device is not used for a longer period, remove the
plug connector from the plug socket or take out the
batteries.
These symbols may be found on the machine and are
intended to indicate the following:
The lightning symbol should advise the user
of parts in the inside of the device which carry
dangerously high voltage levels.
The symbol with an exclamation mark should
advise the user of important operation or
maintenance instructions in the accompa-
nying documentation.
Devices bearing this symbol work with a
„class 1 laser“ for tracing the CD. The built-in
safety switches should prevent the user being
exposed to dangerous laser light, which is
invisible to the human eye, when the CD compartment
is opened.
Under no circumstances should these safety switches
be bypassed or manipulated, as this could result in a
danger of exposure to the laser light.
Commissioning the device
Battery Mode (not supplied)
• Open the battery compartment on the inside of the
machine
• Insert 2 1.5V AA type batteries. Match the polarities
correctly (see the inside of the battery compartment).
•
If the device is not used for a long period of time, remo-
ve the batteries to avoid the „spilling“ of battery acid.
• A battery symbol in the display indicates that the bat-
teries need changing. Always change the complete
set of batteries, do not replace only one battery.
Warning: batteries are not to be disposed of together
with domestic wastes. Dispose of the used batteries at
the relevant collection bin or at your dealer’s.
Never throw batteries into the fi re.
AC Adapter Mode (not supplied)
You can also use the device with an adapter.
1. Insert the AC adapter into a duly installed 230V/50Hz
protective contact outlet.
2. Connect the CD player to the AC adapter by connec-
ting the jack of the adapter into the 4.5V/DC socket.
3. When using an adapter match the polarities correctly
as indicated on the CD player.
