IMPORTANT INFORMATION  
• Playing CD’s at higher volume levels increases the battery drain and shortens  
the battery life. Try to use AC power whenever it is available.  
You must remove the AC Power Cord from the AC Cord Socket on the back  
cabinet in order to operate the unit on batteries.  
• We recommend using alkaline batteries for the longest possible life.  
• Change the batteries when the output of the unit becomes weak or the sound  
becomes distorted. Always change all six (6) batteries at the same time.  
• If the unit will be stored and not used for 30 days or more it is recommended to  
remove the batteries from the battery compartment to reduce the possibility of  
damage from battery leakage or corrosion.

1. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.  
2. Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the battery  
compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.  
3. Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g. Alkaline and Carbon-Zinc) or old batteries  
with fresh ones.  
4. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent  
damage or injury from possible battery leakage.  
5. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture.
