CHOOSING A POWER SOURCE
You can power your CD player from:
Installing Batteries
• Two AA alkaline batteries (not
supplied) or one special-order
rechargeable nickel-cadmium
battery pack (not supplied)
1. Slide the battery compartment
cover in the direction of the
arrow, then lift it open.
• Standard AC power, using an
AC adapter (not supplied)
• A vehicle’s battery power, using
a DC adapter (not supplied)
USING BATTERIES
2. Place two AA batteries or the
special-order nickel cadmium
battery pack in the compartment
as indicated by the polarity sym-
bols (+ and –) marked inside the
compartment.
You can power your CD player from
two AA alkaline batteries, such as
RadioShack Cat. No. 23-552, or one
special-order rechargeable nickel-
cadmium battery pack (Cat. No.
RSU 11649035, available through
your local RadioShack store). The
CD player can recharge the special-
order nickel-cadmium battery pack
while it is in the CD player.

Cautions:
Cautions:
•
Use only batteries of the
required size and type.
• Always dispose of old batteries
promptly and properly.
•
Never mix fresh and old bat-
teries, alkaline and nickel-
cadmium batteries, or nickel-
cadmium batteries of differ-
ent capacities.
• Never heat, disassemble, or
throw batteries into a fire.
• Never leave dead, old, or weak
batteries in the CD player. Bat-
teries can leak chemicals that
corrode or damage electronic
circuits.
•
If you do not plan to use the
CD player for a month or
more, or you plan to power it
only from an optional AC or
DC adapter, remove and
store the batteries.
Charging a Nickel-
Cadmium Battery Pack
3. Close the battery compartment
cover.
The nickel-cadmium battery pack
comes fully discharged. You can
charge the special-order battery
pack while it is in the battery com-
partment using an AC adapter (such
as Cat. No. 273-1664, not supplied)
or DC adapter (such as Cat. No.
273-1801, not supplied). See “Using
AC Power” on Page 10 and “Using
Vehicle Battery Power” on Page 11.
When the batteries become weak,
flashes, then the CD player
automatically turns off. Replace al-
kaline batteries or recharge the
nickel-cadmium battery pack when
this happens.

Follow these steps to recharge a
nickel-cadmium battery pack while it
is in the battery compartment.
Notes:
• It takes about 10 hours for the
CD-3580 to charge a fully dis-
charged nickel-cadmium battery
pack.
EXT DC 6V
• You can play
a
CD while
recharging the battery pack;
however, this could cause the
battery pack to recharge more
slowly.
1. Set the tip polarity on the
adapter to positive (+), and set
the adapter’s voltage switch to
6V.
Charging Tips
2. Insert the adapter’s 4.0 mm
outer diameter/1.7 mm inner
diameter barrel plug into the CD
player’s EXT DC 6V jack.
• Always keep the charging termi-
nals clean. Use a cotton swab
dipped in alcohol to clean the
terminals.
3. Plug the adapter’s other end
into your vehicle’s cigarette
lighter socket or a standard AC
outlet.
4. When the nickel-cadmium bat-
tery pack fully charges, unplug
the adapter, then disconnect the
adapter from the CD player.
• Under normal usage condi-
tions, the nickel-cadmium bat-
tery pack can be recharged
about 500 times.

• Fully discharge the battery pack
occasionally by playing the CD
player until it no longer plays.
Then fully recharge the battery
pack. This helps restore the bat-
tery pack’s full charging capac-
ity.
recycling or disposal programs in
your area. Some options that might
be available are: municipal curb-side
collection, drop-off boxes at retail-
ers, recycling collection centers, and
mail-back programs.
• Avoid charging the battery pack
in a hot environment (more than
113°F) as this can permanently
reduce the battery pack’s charg-
ing capacity.
USING AC POWER
You can power the CD player from
standard AC power using an AC
adapter, such as Cat. No. 273-1664
(not supplied).
• Do not overcharge the battery
pack. Overcharging can se-
verely reduce a battery pack’s
useful life.
Cautions:
• You must use an AC adapter
that supplies 6 volts and deliv-
ers at least 550 milliamps. Its
center tip must be set to posi-
tive, and its plug must correctly
fit the CD player’s EXT DC 6V
jack. The recommended AC
adapter meets these specifica-
tions. Using an adapter that
does not meet these specifica-
tions could damage the CD
player or the adapter.
• Do not short-circuit the battery
pack’s terminals (+ and –).
Important: This portable CD player
is capable of using a rechargeable
nickel-cadmium battery pack. At the
end of its useful life, the battery pack
must be recycled or disposed of
properly. Contact your local, county,
or state hazardous waste manage-
ment authorities for information on

You can power your CD player from
your vehicle’s battery using an op-
tional DC adapter, such as Cat. No.
273-1801.
1. Attach the 4.0 mm outer diame-
ter/1.7 mm inner diameter barrel
plug to the adapter cord, match-
ing the positive (+) on the plug
with TIP on the cord.
Cautions:
• You must use a DC adapter that
supplies 6 volts and delivers at
least 550 milliamps. Its center
tip must be set to positive, and
its plug must correctly fit the CD
player’s EXT DC 6V jack. The
recommended adapter meets

• Disconnect the adapter from the
cigarette-lighter socket after you
turn off the vehicle to prevent
the vehicle’s battery from being
drained.
1. Attach the 4.0 mm outer diame-
ter/1.7 mm inner diameter barrel
plug to the adapter cord, match-
ing positive (+) on the plug with
TIP on the cord.
• Always disconnect the adapter
from the cigarette-lighter socket
before you unplug it from the
CD player.
2. Set the adapter’s voltage switch
to 6V.
3. Insert the adapter’s barrel plug
into the CD player’s EXT DC 6V
jack.
• If you park your vehicle in the
sun, temperatures inside can
easily reach levels that could
damage your CD player and
your CDs. To prevent heat dam-
age, avoid leaving your CD
player or CDs in your vehicle.
Note: Battery power discon-
nects when you connect a DC
adapter to the CD player

Traffic Safety
Do not wear earphones while oper-

Even though some earphones let
you hear some outside sounds when

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CARING FOR THE CD-3580
Your Optimus CD-3580 Portable Compact Disc Player is an example of supe-
rior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for
the CD player so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the CD player dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
Liquids can contain minerals that corrode the electronic cir-
cuits.
Handle the CD player gently and carefully. Dropping it can
damage the circuit board and case, and can cause the player
to work improperly.
Keep the CD player away from dust and dirt, which can cause
premature wear of parts.
Wipe the CD player with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it
CLEANER
looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents,
or strong detergents to clean the CD player.
Use and store the CD player only in normal temperature envi-
ronments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of elec-
tronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic
parts.

Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type. Always
remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals
that destroy electronic circuits.
Modifying or tampering with the CD player’s internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate the CD player’s warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it. If your CD player is not performing as it should,
take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.

• A scratch on the CD’s surface
can make the CD skip or stop
playing. If the CD gets
scratched, use Scratch ’n Fix
(RadioShack Cat. No. 42-127)
to repair the scratch.
CD CARE TIPS
• If you move the player from a
very cold room to a warmer one,
moisture can condense on the
pickup lens, preventing proper
CD play. If this happens, wait 30
minutes before resuming play.
• Keep CDs dry. A water drop can
act as a lens and affect the laser
beam focus.
• Do not place anything but a CD
in the disc tray. This can dam-
age the drive mechanism.
LASER SAFETY
• During play, a severe shock or
jolt could make the CD’s rota-
tion speed change suddenly
and produce some noise. This
is not a malfunction.
This unit employs a laser. Only qual-
ified service persons should remove
the cover or attempt to service this
device, due to possible eye injury.
• Always handle a CD by the
