CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS

CAUTION:  Do not plug in the power cord until you connect the speakers.
          Operating the CD-3321 without connected speakers could damage
          it.

The connecting wires for the CD-3321's detachable speakers are rolled up
in the recessed area at the back of each speaker.

Follow these steps to connect the speakers to the system.

Note:  The right speaker has the tracks on its left side when viewed from
       the front.  The left speaker has the tracks on its right side when
       viewed from the front.

1.  Align the tracks on the side of the right speaker with the tracks on
    the right end of the main system and slide the speaker down until it
    clicks into place.

2.  Align the tracks on the side of the left speaker with the tracks on
    the left end of the main system and slide the speaker down until it
    clicks into place.

3.  Unwind the wire from each speaker.

4.  Press the pair of terminal tabs marked Speakers 8 Ohms/+R- on the back
    of the CD-3321.  Insert the right speaker's red wire into the red (+)
    terminal and its black wire into the black (-) terminal.  Then release
    the tabs.

    CAUTION:  To avoid damaging your system and speakers, never let the
              speaker wires' bare ends touch each other.

5.  Repeat Step 3 to connect the left speaker's wires to the terminals
    marked SPEAKERS 8 Ohms/-L+.

To disconnect the speakers from the system, first disconnect the speaker
wires from the CD-3321.  Then push in the mounting tabs on the sides of
the main system and slide the speakers upward along the tracks.

CONNECTING POWER

You can power your CD-3321 from any of three power sources:

    Internal batteries.

    Standard AC power (with the supplied power cord).

    Your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket (with an optional DC adapter).

Note:  Connecting the power cord or an optional DC adapter disconnects the
       internal batteries.

Using Batteries

You need eight D batteries (not supplied) to power the CD-3321.  We
recommend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-550.

CAUTIONS:  Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended
           type.

           Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of
           batteries.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1.  Remove the battery compartment cover by pushing the cover's two tabs
    in the direction of the arrows.

2.  Insert eight D batteries as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and
    -) marked inside the battery compartment.

3.  Replace the cover.

When the CD-3321 operates erratically or not at all, replace the
batteries.

CAUTIONS:  Always remove old or weak batteries.  Batteries can leak
           chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.

           Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.  Do not burn or
           bury them.

Note:  If you do not plan to use the system for several days, or if you
       plan to power the system using only AC or DC power, remove the
       batteries.

Using AC Power

To use AC power, plug the supplied power cord into the AC 120V 60 Hz jack
on the back of the CD-3321.  Then plug the cord's other end into a
standard AC outlet.

Note:  The plug's blades are polarized (one blade is wider than the other)
       and it fits only one way.  If the plug will not fit easily, turn it
       over and try again.  Do not force it.

CAUTION:  Always unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before you
          unplug it from the CD-3321.

Using Your Vehicle's Cigarette-Lighter Socket

To power the CD-3321 from your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket, you
need a DC adapter (not supplied), such as Cat. No. 270-1528.

Cautions:  You must use a DC cigarette-lighter adapter that supplies 12
           volts and delivers at least 1 amp.  Its center tip must be set
           to positive, and its plug must correctly fit the CD-3321's DC
           12V jack.  The recommended adapter meets these specifications.
           Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could
           damage the CD-3321 or the adapter.

           Unplug the adapter from your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket
           when you turn off the ignition.  This prevents your vehicle's
           battery from being drained if you leave the CD-3321 on when you
           turn off the ignition.

           Always plug the DC adapter into the CD-3321 before you plug it
           into your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket, and unplug the
           adapter from your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket before you
           unplug its barrel plug from the CD-3321.

Insert the DC adapter's 5.5 outer diameter/2.1 inner diameter barrel plug
into the DC 12V jack on the back of the CD-3321, then plug the DC adapter
into your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket.

Note:  If the CD-3321 does not operate when you turn it on, remove the DC
       adapter from your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket and check the
       socket for debris.  Also, check the fuse in the adapter and your
       vehicle's fuse block.
