Aerial assembly  
1. Before using your radio, screw the telescopic aerial on to the protruding aerial stud by  
rotating the body of the aerial in a clockwise direction (as viewed from above). Only  
rotate the aerial by hand. Do not use pliers or any other tools as this may damage  
the aerial.  
2. When it is fully screwed in place, pull the body of the aerial upwards slightly to lift the  
aerial stud and reveal its hinge. Then lay the aerial flat and rotate it further to tighten  
it fully. The hinge will also allow the aerial to be positioned at an angle or collapsed  
and laid flat when not in use.  
3. For best radio reception the aerial should be restored to a vertical orientation and  
fully extended.  
4. The aerial may be removed for storage if necessary by collapsing the aerial and then  
rotating the aerial body in an anti-clockwise direction (as viewed from above).

Battery operation  
1. Slide the battery cover catch in the direction of the arrow. Open the  
battery cover.  
2. Fit six LR14 (C size) batteries into the spaces in the compartment.  
Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity  
as shown on the outside of the battery compartment. Replace the  
battery cover.  
1
3. Reduced power, distortion and a 'stutturing' sound are all signs that  
the batteries may need replacing. If your DAB/FM CD player is not to  
be used for a prolonged period of time, remove the batteries to avoid  
damage by battery leakage.  
We would recommend for economy that the ZoomBox is used on  
the mains whenever possible with battery operation for occasional or  
stand-by use only.  
IMPORTANT: The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat  
suchassunshine,reorthelike.Afteruse,disposablebatteriesshould  
if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no account  
should batteries be disposed of by incineration.  
Mains operation  
1. Place your CD player on a flat surface.  
2. Plug the mains lead into the Socket located on the left hand side of  
your cd player ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the socket.  
3. Plug the other end of the mains lead into a wall socket and switch on  
the wall socket.  
IMPORTANT: The mains plug is used as the means of connecting the  
radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the radio must  
remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the radio  
from the mains, the mains plug should be removed from the mains  
socket outlet completely.  
4. The On Indicator will light when the CD player is switched on.

Compact discs  
Use only Digital Audio CDs which have the  
symbol.  
Never write on a CD or attach any sticker to the CD. Always hold the CD  
at the edge and store it in its box after use with the label facing up.  
To remove dust and dirt, breathe on the CD and wipe it with a soft, lint free  
cloth in a straight line from the centre towards the edge.  
Cleaning agents may damage the CD.  
Do not expose the CD to rain, moisture, sand or to excessive heat. (e.g  
from heating equipment or in motor cars parked in the sun).  
CD-R/CD-RW discs  
Your CD player can playback CD-DA format audio CD-R/CD-RW discs  
that have been finalised* upon completion of recording.  
Your CD player may fail to playback some CD-R/CD-RW discs due to poor  
recording and wide variation in quality of the CD-R/CD-RW disc.  
*Finalising enables a CD-R/CD-RW disc to playback on audio players  
such as your ZoomBox.  
17  
WARNING  
MP3 / WMA CD Mode  
The ZoomBox is able to play CD-R and CD-RW discs containing MP3 /  
WMA files.  
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT means that the laser's construction makes  
it inherently safe so that the legally prescribed maximum permissible  
radiation values can never be exceeded.  
In MP3 / WMA mode the terms “album” and “file” are very important.  
“Album” typically corresponds to a folder on a PC, “File” to a PC or a  
CD-DA track. The device reads MP3 or WMA files with a maximum  
of 255 files per album or folder. An MP3 / WMA CD may not contain  
more than a combined total of 511 files and folders. MP3 and WMA files  
must be created with an audio sample rate of 44.1kHz (this is normal  
for files created from CD audio content). Folders may be nested but to  
a maximum of 8 levels. Folder and file names should be less than 30  
characters (longer names are possible but reduce the above maximum  
limits). ID3 tags for title / artist / album should be less than 30 characters  
(longer tags are possible, but are truncated when displayed). Within any  
one folder, files or folders written earlier will have higher priority than  
those written later. Within any one folder, files have higher priority than  
nested folders. The priority of folders when playing is based on the level  
in the directory tree. The higher level the higher priority.  
Caution: Using any equipment or devices other than those described and  
specified in these operating instructions, or tampering with the unit in any  
way, can result in dangerous exposure to radiation.  
When burning CD-R and CD-RW discs with audio files, various problems  
may arise which could lead to interference in playback. This can be  
caused by faulty software or hardware settings or by the CD being used.  
Should such problems arise, contact the customer services of your CD  
burner or software manufacturer or look for relevant information, for  
example on the internet. When you are making audio CDs, observe  
all legal guidelines and ensure that the copyright of third parties is not  
infringed.
