extended periods.

Caution: Do not use this product with headphones when

operating a motor vehicle on a public road, or where the
inability to hear outside sounds may present a danger.

Caution: If you hear no sound when playing a disc, DO

NOT turn the volume up high because music could suddenly
start at high volume. Turn the volume control to the lowest
level before starting playback and slowly increase volume to
the desired level.

Note: If the CD player is brought from a cold to a warm

location, moisture may condense inside, causing it to stop
working. Should this occur, remove the disc and leave the
player in a warm location for several hours to allow the
moisture to evaporate.

Note: Use the player with 2 AA batteries (LR06 alkaline).

The CD Player is not supplied with an AC adapter. Use only a
safety agency approved 6V DC 350mA AC adapter. Plus
pole (+) to the center pin of the 3.5mm socket. When the unit
is not used, be sure to disconnect the AC power adapter.
