Inspecting & Unpacking
Although the shipping carton and packaging materials are designed to prevent damage during shipment, you
should inspect the carton for any signs of mishandling or damage immediately upon receiving your new unit.
Carefully lift the unit from the carton and inspect it for any signs of damage. Save all packaging materials for
possible later use.
Note: Any shipping damage or loss claims must be submitted to the freight agent.
Your carton and packaging should contain the following:
• CD/Cassette/AM/FM Radio
• Owner’s Manual
• Califone Warranty Registration Mail-In Card
• Project Intercept Tag
Initial Set-Up
AC Line Operation
1. The power cord is located at the rear of the unit. Release the cord retainer tab and uncoil the cord.
2. Plug the cord into a standard 120 volt 50-60 Hz AC outlet. Be sure the plug blades are fully inserted. THE
UNIT IS ON STANDBY WHEN PLUGGED IN.
Battery Operation
1. The battery compartment is located at the rear of the unit. Push the lever at the center of the door toward
the rear of the unit, then lift the door free.
2. Eight “D” or UM-1 size batteries are required. When installing refer to the orientation diagram shown
inside the battery compartment. Place the batteries on top of the nylon ribbon. This helps to “pop” old
batteries out when you need to replace them.
3. Replace the battery cover.
IMPORTANT: Remove all batteries from your cassette unit if it will not be used for an extended period of time.
DO NOT LEAVE DISCHARGED BATTERIES IN THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT. DAMAGE TO THE UNIT DUE TO
BATTERY CORROSION IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
NOTE: Califone cassette recorders are designed for use only with Type 1 Normal Bias
recording tape.
