CAR KIT
DC CAR ADAPTER/CORD
The supplied DC car adapter/cord is designed for
use with vehicles equipped with a 12 volt nega-
tive ground electrical system only. The equip-
ment is compatible if the negative (-) terminal of
the battery is connected to the vehicle’s metal
body/chassis. If unsure, contact the vehicles’s
dealer.
Plug the small end of the car adapter into the DC
6V jack and then plug the other end into the
cigarette lighter socket. The indicator light will
illuminate red when powered on.
PRECAUTIONS
! USE ONLY THE SUPPLIED DC CAR ADAPTER/CORD. OTHER ADAPT-
ERS COULD DAMAGE THE PLAYER.
! IF THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE’S CIGARETTE LIGHTER SOCKET IS
DIRTY, THE PLUG MAY BECOME HOT AS A RESULT OF POOR ELECTRI-
CAL CONTACT. BE SURE IT IS CLEAN BEFORE USE.
! AFTER USE, DISCONNECT THE CORD’S PLUGS FROM THE PLAYER
AND THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER.
! SHOULD THE PLAYER CAUSE INTERFERENCE TO NEARBY RADIO,
INCREASE THE DISTANCE BETWEEN PLAYER AND RECEIVER.
FUSE REPLACEMENT
Should the player fail to operate with the DC car
adapter/cord, check the fuse (1-Amp). If blown,
check all connections and inspect the cord for
any damage. Always replace the fuse with same
type and rating.
If the fuse blows again after replacement, this
indicates a potential problem. DO NOT replace
the fuse with a higher rating. Doing so may cause
damage to the player.
