IB-CD163(TA)-FREDS-E-042602

1. Use only the type and size of batteries mentioned in the operating instructions booklet (batteries are not included with this set, please buy the proper batteries).

2. Do not dispose the batteries into a fire. The cells may explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.

3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.

4. Be careful when handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting materials such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may over heat and cause burns.

5. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. The batteries may leak corrosive electrolyte or explode.

6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with this product by heating them. Sudden release of the battery electrolyte may cause burns or irritation to eyes or skin.

7. All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh and discharged batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the batteries.

8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity (

and ) or direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of some or all of the batteries may result in battery electrolyte leakage or explosion.

9. Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be used for a long period of time (several months or more) since during the period the batteries could leak, damaging the product.

10. Discard weak or dead batteries as soon as possible since they are more likely to leak in the product. Batteries should be replaced (depending on the product) when the display gets dim or if the Low Battery Indicator shows or if the sound gets distorted.

11. Do not store this product in high temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in a freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of extending shelf life should be protected from condensation during storage and defrosting. Batteries should be stabilized at room temperature prior to use after cold storage.

12. If this product does not operate normally, see TROUBLE SHOOTING in this instruction manual. If you cant resolve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the LENOXX WARRANTY INFORMATION. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance is subsequently used.

13. If liquid leaks from the batteries, carefully wipe this liquid. Do not allow it to touch your skin, and discard the leaking batteries.

14. Do not mix batteries (OLD and NEW or CARBON and ALKALINE, etc.).

15. The use of rechargeable batteries is not recommended for this set because their voltage and life is lower than standard batteries.

16. Installation of batteries should be done by an adult only.

PRECAUTIONS On Safety



As the laser beam used in the CD player section may be harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.



Should any solid object or liquid fall into the set, unplug the player, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

On Power Sources



For battery operation, use 8 size D batteries. We recommend alkaline batteries for longer life.



If the batteries will not be used for a few weeks or more, remove them to avoid damage that can be caused by battery leakage.

On Operation



If the set is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player section. Should this occur, the set will not operate properly. In this case, remove the CD and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate. If the set has not been used for a long time, set it in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before inserting a cassette.



This set is designed to be played on a stable no vibration position. If you

bump the set during CD play, the music will stop or skip for a few seconds. This is normal for this type of player.

On Placement



Do not leave the set in a location near a heat source, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock.



Do not place the set on an inclined or unstable place.



Do not place anything within 1 inch of the back of the cabinet. The ventilation holes must not be covered for the set to operate properly and prolong the life of its components.



If the set is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to choose a location in the car where the set will not be subjected to the direct rays of the sun.



Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or springwound watches away from the speakers to prevent possible damage from the magnets.



If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please contact our customer service department at 1-800-315-5885.

(Monday - Thursday 09:00 AM - 05:00 PM, Friday 09:00 AM - 01:00 PM EST)

PRECAUTIONS (continued)

Notes on CDs



Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the center out.



Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.



Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car and result in a damaged CD.



Do not stick paper or stickers on the CD, nor scratch the CD.



After playing, store the CD in its case.

If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on the CD, it may cause a tracking

error or skipping.



To record on a tape with its tab broken

off, cover the respective tab hole for side A or B with adhesive tape.



The use of a cassette with more than

90 minutes of play time is not recommended except for long continuous recording or playback.



To reduce the chances of tape

jamming or tangling, you should check

that there are no loose layers of tape

visible through the cassette center

window. If any, tighten these loose

layers of tape using a pencil before

inserting the cassette into the set.

Side A

Tab for side A

Tab for side B

Notes on Cassettes



Break off the cassette recording tabs

from side A or B to prevent accidental recording.

IB-CD163(TA)-FREDS-E-042602

MAINTENANCE Cleaning the Lens

If the lens becomes dirty, it may cause a skipping of sound during CD operation. Clean with a commercially available lens cleaner and blower.

Cleaning the Tape Heads

Wipe the heads, the pinch roller and the capstan with a cleaning swab slightly moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol after every 10 hours of operation for optimum playback and recording quality. After cleaning, insert a tape when the areas cleaned are completely dry.

Cleaning the Cabinet

Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water or a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzene.

Notes for Storing Cassette Tapes

1. Do not put a tape near a magnetic field, such as a TV, or speaker. Magnetic fields may reduce the tape sensitivity or even erase the recording.

2. Do not store tape for any length of time in a hot, moist or dusty place.

NOTE: In order to see and clean the

head, you may have to press PLAY first.
