Connecting Power

You can power your CD-3330 from either:

  standard AC power (with the supplied power cord)

  six D batteries (not supplied)

Note:  Connecting the power cord disconnects internal batteries.

Using AC Power

To use AC power, plug the supplied power cord into the AC IN ~ jack on the back of the CD-3330.  Then plug the other end into a standard AC outlet.

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

           Always unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before you
           unplug it from the CD-3330.

Using Batteries

You can use six D batteries (not supplied) to power the CD-3330.  For the best performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-550.

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

           Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries
           (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable
           batteries of different capacities.

HINT:  For the easiest battery installation, turn the CD-3330 face down on
       a flat surface.

1.  Press down on the two tabs above the battery compartment cover and
    pull out the cover to remove it.

2.  Install the batteries in the compartment and on top of the attached
    ribbon, as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked on the
    lower left corner of the back of the CD-3330.

3.  Replace the cover.

When the CD-3330's sound weakens or distorts, replace the batteries.

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

           If you do not plan to use the CD-3330 with batteries for a
           month or more, or if you plan to use only AC power, remove the
           batteries.  Batteries can leak chemicals that can destroy
           electronic parts.

Using Headphones

For listening privately, you can connect a pair of stereo headphones (not supplied) with a 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) plug into the PHONES jack.  Your local RadioShack store carries a wide selection of stereo headphones.

Note:  Connecting headphones automatically disconnects the built-in
       speaker.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use headphones.

  Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin listening.  After
  you begin listening, adjust the volume to a comfortable level.

  Do not listen at extremely high volume levels.  Extended high-volume
  listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.

  Once you set the volume, do not increase it.  Over time, your ears adapt
  to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort
  might still damage your hearing.
