PREPARATION

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

To protect the playback head during shipment, a protective
foam piece is attached to it. Remove the foam piece before
you use the SCP-105’s cassette player.

CONNECTING POWER

You can power your SCP-105 from:

• internal batteries (not supplied)

• AC power (using an optional AC adapter)

• your vehicle’s battery (using an optional DC adapter)
Connecting an adapter automatic all y di sc onn ec ts inter-

Note:

nal batteries.

Using Batteries

Your SCP-105 can use two AA batteries (not supplied) for
power. For the best performance and longest life, we recom­mend RadioShack alkaline batteries.

You can also use rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries to
power your SCP-105. U se a batte ry cha rger (av ailable at your
local RadioShack store) to charge nickel-cadmium batteries.

6

14-1246.fm Page 7 Thursday, January 13, 2000 1:04 PM

Cautions:

• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recom­mended type.

• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of bat­teries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or recharge­able batteries of different capacities.

While you replace the batteries, the SCP-105 retains

Note:

erased, replace the batteries within 1 minute.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1. Press down and pull the battery compartment cover as
shown above to open it.

2. Place the batteries in the compartment as indicated by
the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked beside the com­part ment.

3. Replace the cover.

14-1246.fm Page 8 Thursday, January 13, 2000 1:04 PM

The SCP-105’s battery indicator shows the amount of battery
power remaining. The indicator consists of three sections —
the more sections that appear, the higher the battery power.

Medium LowHigh

When appears or the SCP-105 stops operating proper­ly, replace or recharge the batteries.

Warning:

Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do

not burn or bury them.

Caution:

If you do not plan to use the SC P-105 with batte rie s

for a month or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.

14-1246.fm Page 9 Thursday, January 13, 2000 1:04 PM

Important:

Your SCP-105 can use nickel­cadmium rechargeable batteries. At the end
of a nickel-cadmium battery's useful life, it
must be recycled or disposed of properly.

Using AC Power

You can power the SCP-105 using a 3V, 200-mA AC ad apt er

CONNECTING HEADPHONES OR
SPEAKERS

To connect your headphones or amplified speaker system
(not supplied) to the SCP-105, insert the headphones’ or am­plified speaker system’s 1/8-inch (3.5-mm) mini-plug into the
SCP-105’s jack.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearin g, follow thes e guideli nes whe n you use
headphones.

• Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin lis­tening. After you begin listening, adjust the volume to a
comfortable level.

• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended
high-volume listening can lead to permanent hearing
loss.

14

14-1246.fm Page 15 Thursday, January 13, 2000 1:04 PM

• Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over time,
your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level
that does not cause discomfort might still damage your
hearing.

Traffic Safety

Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle or
riding a bicy cl e. T h is can cr e ate a t ra f fi c ha zar d an d co ul d be
illegal in some areas.

Even though some headphones let you hear some outside
sounds when listening at normal volume levels, they still can
present a traffic hazard.

USING THE BELT CLIP

SETTING THE FREQUENCY RANGES
AND STEPS

The SCP-105 is pre set to tune frequ encies in increments of 10
kHz (AM) and 0.2 MHz (FM), which are standard increments
in the United States.

In Europe and some other parts of the world, AM and FM fre­quencies are broad cast in increments of 9 k H z (AM ) an d 0.0 5
MHz (FM). In Japan, AM and FM freq uencies are b roadca st in
increments of 9 kHz (AM) and 0.1 MHz (FM). For proper tun­ing, set the frequency steps for AM and FM based on your lo­cation.

TAPE TIPS

Tape quality greatly affects the quality of the recording. We
recommend extended-range or low noise Type 1 regular
length (60- or 90-minute) normal-bias cassette tapes. We do
not recommend long-play cassette tapes such as C-120s be­cause they are thin and can easily tangle.

Restoring Tape Tension and Sound Quality

After you play a cassette tape several times, the tape might
become tigh tly wo und o n the reels . This c an c ause pl ayback
sound quality to deteriorate.

To restore the sound quality, fast-forward the tape from the
beginning to the end of one side, then completely rewind it.
Then loosen the tape reels by gently tapping each side of the
cassette’s outer shell on a flat surface.

Caution:

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Your Optimus SCP-105 Digital AM/FM Stereo Cassette
Player is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.
The following suggestions will help you care for your SCP­105 so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the SCP-105 dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry im ­mediately. Liquids might contain minerals that can
corrode the electronic circuits.

Use and store the SCP-105 only in normal temper­ature environments. Temperature extremes can
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage bat­teries, and distort or melt plastic parts.

Keep the SCP-105 away from dust and dirt, which
can cause premature wear of parts.

Handle the SCP-105 gently and carefully. Drop­ping it can damage circuit boards and cases and
can cause the SCP-105 to work improperly.

Use only fresh batteries of the required size and
recommended type. Batteries can leak chemicals
that damage your SCP-105’s electr onic parts.

Wipe the SCP-105 with a damp cloth occasionally
to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemi­cals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the SCP-105.

31

14-1246.fm Page 32 Thursday, January 13, 2000 1:04 PM

Modifying or tampering with the SCP-105’s internal compo­nents can cause a malfunction and might invalidate its war­ranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. If your
SCP-105 is not performing as it should, take it to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.

CLEANING THE TAPE-HANDLING
PARTS

Dirt, dust or partic les of the tape's coating ca n ac cumulate on
the tape heads and other p arts that the tape touches . This can
greatly reduce the performance of the cassette player. After
every 20 hours of tape pl ay er op eration, follow these step s to
clean the tape-handling parts or use a RadioShack cassette
deck cleaning kit.

1. Remove the batteries and disconnect any other power
source.

2. Open the cassette compartment door.

3. Press

4. Use a cotton swab dipped in denatured alcohol or tape
head cleaning solution to clean the tape guides, play

cassette compartment door. Then reconnect power.

RESETTING THE SCP-105

If the SCP-105’s display locks up or stops operating properly
after you connect power, first replace the batteries with new
ones. If the SCP-105 still d oes not o perate pro perly, you must
reset it. To reset the SCP-105, use a poi nted o bje ct s uc h a s a

Important:

Resetting the SCP-105 clears all the settings you
have stored. Reset th e SCP- 105 on ly w hen you ar e sure it is

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

This equipment complies with the limits for a Class B digital
device as specif ied in Part 15 of
vide reasonable protection against radio and TV interference
in a residential area. However, your equipment might cause
TV or radio interference ev en when it i s operatin g properly. To
eliminate interfe rence, you c an try one o r more of the following
corrective measures:

• reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

• increase the distance between the equipment and the
