POWER SOURCES
Your CD player requires 2 size “AA” alkaline batteries (not included), or use the AC Adaptor (included),
or in a car you may use the Car Cigarette Lighter Adaptor.
BATTERY OPERATION
1.Apply slight downward thumb pressure on Battery Door (marked “OPEN” ), and gently slide it in an
outward direction to open the door.
2.Insert 2 size “AA” fresh alkaline batteries according to + and - polarity markings inside the battery
compartment. For longer operating life, heavy duty alkaline batteries are recommended (also see
TIPS ON BATTERY USE as listed below).
3.Close the Battery Door, make sure it is snapped into place.
NOTE: If you will not use your set for one week or more, remove the batteries and unplug the AC
Adaptor from the wall outlet.
TIPS ON BATTERY USE
Reversing polarities will damage the batteries and possibly your
set. Be sure to follow + and - markings as indicated.
•
Do not mix different types together (Alkaline, Carbon-Zinc,
Nickel-Cadmium etc.), or old batteries with new ones.
•
When not in use for an extended period of time, or while internal
batteries will not be used, remove them to prevent possible acid
leakage or corrosion resulting in damage to your player.
•
Bear in mind that battery life expectancy is based upon volume
•
and bass listening levels and if anti-skip circuitry is used. Using
the anti-skip feature consumes more power. Maximum battery power
consumption happens at maximum settings. Typical life for 2 size
“AA” alkaline batteries is about 8 hours of continuous use. If the set
fails to switch tracks, or if it shuts off, your batteries are weak.
Replace both batteries, or use the AC Adaptor (or Car Adaptor).
When the batteries have become discharged, they must be disposed
of in a safe manner that complies with all applicable laws.
•
Installation of batteries should only be done by an adult (for safety).
•
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the alkaline batteries are weak and discharged, this symbol “
” shows in the display, then the
power automatically turns off. If this occurs, replace the alkaline batteries (also if display does not
show anything, the batteries are dead).
This set can be used without batteries as long as the AC Adaptor (or Car Adaptor) is used.
•
TECHNICAL NOTE:Because of the special integrated circuits and servomotor in this set,
this set will not work with weak batteries, it will automatically shut off if the
batteries get too weak for proper operation.
BATTERY RECOVERY
When batteries get weak and cause the set to stop, if you wait about 30 minutes, the batteries will
regain a small amount of capacity and play for a few more minutes. This does not mean the set is
defective. Replace the weak batteries or use the AC Adaptor (or Car Adaptor).

CONNECTIONS
LISTENING WITH HEADPHONES
Connect the plug of the stereo headphones into the Phones Jack (on the left
side of the set).
DO NOT PLUG THE HEADPHONES INTO THE LINE OUT JACK!
CAUTION:
Hearing experts advise against exposure to continuous extended play at
loud volume levels while using headphones, possible hearing loss may
result. If you experience a ringing in the ears, reduce volume or discontinue

HANDLING COMPACT DISCS
This set is designed to play only compact discs bearing this identification
logo
(logo must say DIGITAL AUDIO).
Other discs may not conform to the CD standard and may not play properly.
Dirty, scratched or warped discs may cause skipping or noise.
•
Handle the disc only by the edges. To keep clean, do not touch its surface.
•
Discs should be stored in their cases after use to avoid scratches.
•
•
Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, high temperatures,
or dust, etc. Prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can warp
the disc (such as leaving the discs in your car during summertime).
Do not stick or write anything on either side of disc. Sharp writing
instruments, or the inks used in some felt-tip pens, may damage its surface.
•
CLEANING DISCS
Fingerprints should be carefully wiped from the surface of disc with a
•
soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves
to collect dust and microscopic dirt, so gently wiping them with a soft
cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight motion from the
center to the edge.
Never use thinner, benzine, record cleaner or antistatic spray on a
compact disc. Such chemicals can damage its plastic surface.
•
TO REMOVE THE DISC
Open the CD Door by pressing the Door Open Button, hold the disc by
the edge while slightly pressing on the center spindle as illustrated, then
lift it from the edge to release and remove.
NOTE
Always press Stop Button and wait for the disc to stop rotating before
pressing the Door Open Button to remove the disc.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not take the set apart. The laser beam used in the set may harm your eyes. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel only.
Do not insert pins or coins, clips, or any objects inside the set.
This set is equipped with a safety device which automatically turns the laser beam off when the
disc door is opened.
Do not drop the set or subject it to strong shocks. Doing so could result in damage.
Do not place the set in locations where the temperature is high, or in humid or dusty locations, or
locations with long heavy vibrations, or tilted surfaces. The anti-skip feature prevents short duration
skipping or stopping of music.
The set’s cabinet may warp or the set may otherwise be damaged if it is placed in direct sunlight,
near heaters (where the temperature is 1400F/600C or higher) or in cars with the windows closed.
In the summer, the temperature may get as high as 2120F /1000C or more.
Use the set within a temperature range of 410F/ 50C to 950F / 350C.
Use ONLY the AC Adaptor provided, others may damage your set. Disconnect the Adaptor from
the wall outlet when the set is not to be used for an extended period of time (3 days or more).
When cleaning your set, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use solvents or commercially available
cleaners, as they may damage or discolor the finish.
Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle. This could create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in many areas. Do not use this set when bicycling or running.
The headphones supplied with your set provide superb stereo listening while allowing you to hear
some outside sounds when listening at normally low volume levels. Listening at extremely high
volume levels minimizes the intrusion of outside noise/sounds. In the interest of safety, it is
strongly advised against the use while engaging in activities where the exclusion of external
sounds (whistles, horns, sirens, traffic, etc.) could be hazardous. Also loud volume can hurt your
ears. If you notice that the sound has become weak or distorted or if tracks do not change, this is
an indication that your batteries are low. Replace both batteries at the same time (see BATTERY
OPERATION).
Your CD-78 is identified by a serial number located in the Battery Compartment. Record this
number in the space provided below.
Model CD-78
Serial No.
Date Purchased:
This booklet contains detailed information on its safety and use. Please read it carefully so that
you may take full advantage of its many features, and ensure a safe reliable operation. Keep this
booklet for future reference.
CONDENSATION
If cold water is poured into a glass, water droplets form on the outside of the glass. This is called
condensation. Condensation may occur on internal operating parts of the lens.
Condensation occurs:
When the set is brought from the cold outdoors into a warm room, or if it is in a cold room to a room
which is heated, or in the summer, if the set is moved from an air-conditioned room or car to a hot or
humid location. Should condensation occur, the set may not operate properly.
Open the CD Door and wait for about 20 minutes (to allow the internal parts to adjust to the surrounding
temperature) before using the set.

product designs and specifications without notice and without incurring any obligation.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT BATTERIES
Fresh alkaline batteries will work for about 8 hours of continuous play.
If your set does not switch tracks or shuts down by itself, this means your batteries are weak and
cannot supply enough current.
Either replace both batteries with fresh alkaline batteries or use the AC Adaptor (or car cord).
This set has a built-in Low Battery indicator. When this symbol “
” shows in your Display, both
batteries need to be replaced (the batteries may still have some life in them, but too low for use by
a CD player).
NOTE:
You may use rechargeable batteries on this set. However, because rechargeable batteries
generally have lower voltage (1.2 volts instead of 1.5 volts). Your playing time will be
much less than normal fresh alkaline batteries.
