One of a kind!

We’ve added a momentary, latch, and timer circuit to this high quality
compact and portable boom box for using with your capability switch. No
other Boom Box on the market has this unique circuit. It also features a CD
player, cassette player and recorder, AM/FM radio with 30 station pre-sets,
and a Mega bass sound system. It runs on batteries or an AC adapter which
is included. The timer can be set from 0 to 120 seconds. Size: 14"L x 5
1/2"W x 9 1/2"H. Requires Capability Switch and 6 C Batteries.

Operation:

1. The CD boom box requires 6 C batteries (not included) or the supplied
AC power adapter to operate. Install the batteries, with careful attention
to the battery polarity. Be sure the + and - poles are facing in the
correct directions as shown in the battery compartment. When using
batteries use alkaline batteries only (e.g. Duracell or Energizer). Do not
use heavy duty or rechargeable batteries as they will not work.

2. The CD Boom Box can also be run on AC power with the included
wall transformer. Simply plug the pin at one end of the transformer
cord into the jack directly in the back of the Boom Box. Plug the other
end into an AC wall outlet.

Note:

 Do not mix new batteries with old ones.

 Remove the batteries when you do not plan to use the unit for a month

or more.
