Care

Battery Replacement

The CD player uses two AA (LR06 alkaline) batteries. Do
not mix old and new batteries.

Insert the batteries into the player with the positive and
negative battery terminals aligned with + and – symbols
shown on the case next to the battery compartment

Note: You can use rechargeable batteries (NiMH,

composed of nickel metal hydride, are recommended).
They average half the life of alkaline batteries. However,
the low battery symbol is not set for such batteries and will
not be a reliable indicator of their remaining battery life.
Do not mix alkaline and rechargeable batteries.

Cleaning the CD Player

Cleaning is not necessary. However, you can simply wipe the
outside surfaces with a soft cloth, as needed.
