You may also purchase a "Universal" type AC adapter that allows you to select the desired output voltage, and normally includes several of the most popular plug sizes. Make sure that the adapter you purchase is "UL Listed". Look for the "UL" mark on the packaging and on the adapter itself. Connect the adapter housing directly to a 120V AC outlet. Connect the appropriate adapter plug to the "DC Input 4.5V" jack on the side of the CD player. Remove the rubber cap from the Input jack before connecting the adapter plug. Replace the rubber cap when the adapter plug is removed from the player. AC/DC ADAPTER (OPTIONAL) 120V/60Hz AC OUTLET 4.5V DC Notes: • The housing of the adapter may become warm during operation. This is normal. • Never insert or remove the adapter housing from the AC outlet while your hands are wet. • The adapter plug must be completely disconnected from the CD player in order to operate the player on batteries.
