POWER SOURCES
1.Using Battery Power
Insert two size AA alkaline batteries
according to the + and - markings in
the battery compartment.

TIPS ON BATTERY USE
Reversing polarities will damage the batteries and possibly your set. Be sure to
follow polarity ( + and - ) 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.
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).
ALKALINE BATTERY LIFE
Bear in mind that battery life expectancy is based upon volume and bass listening
levels.
Maximum battery power consumption happens at maximum settings. Typical life
for 2 size “AA” alkaline batteries is above 8 hours of continuous use.
WHEN THIS SYMBOL
SHOWS IN THE DISPLAY
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).
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.

2.Using AC Wall Outlet Power
Your player may be powered from any household 120V AC outlet, using the AC
adaptor included. Insert the adaptor’s small connector plug into the DC 4.5V Jack
marked
on player (on the rear of the set), and plug the adaptor into
an AC outlet.
NOTE: If the AC Adaptor is connected, and regular batteries are installed, the
player automatically switches to the AC Adaptor power and the batteries
are not used.
CAUTION:
To prevent electric shock, do not use this AC Adaptor with an extension cord or outlet,
unless it can be fully inserted without exposing any part of the blades. Do not use any
other adaptor to power this set or you may damage your set.
CONNECTING TO HOME STEREO SYSTEMS
The LINE OUT jack is made to accept a stereo mini plug (3.5mm). Simply connect the
cable’s mini plug to the LINE OUT jack on your player, and the other appropriate end
usually RCA JACKS to the CD/AUX INPUTS of your home stereo.

20 SECOND ESP PLUSTM SYSTEM
9
This set is designed with 20 second ESP (Electronic Shock Protection) PLUSTM - which
allows virtually unlimited gentle skip protection, and 20 second normal shock protection.
The ESP PLUSTM function prevents the sound from skipping by using a buffer memory
that stores music data. The new ESP PLUSTM system can store more music than
normal anti-skip systems.
This new design allows gentle swaying of the set without music skipping as in walking.
This set will not work during jogging.
Press the ESP button to turn on the ESP PLUSTM system. Press
it again to turn it off.
When the ESP PLUSTM function is switched ON or OFF during
play, the sound will be interrupted for a few seconds. This is
normal.
When the ESP button is pressed during play, the “
” (memory
basket) indicator will appear in the display, the digital data
equivalent to approximately 20 seconds of music is stored in the
“read-ahead” memory buffer before it is decoded and played.

When the set is subject to a shock or a bump during play, the
data stored in memory continues to be decoded and played.

new music. As the data is used from memory, the indicator
changes from “ ” to “ ”. Once the pickup returns to its

To turn off the 20 second ESP PLUSTM function, press the ESP

Keep the digital ESP function off when using the set in a stable,
no vibration area, where it will not receive shocks. The batteries
will last longer when the ESP function is off.
•
•
ALL MEMORY USED UP
NOTE:
- The music may stop if the player receives continuous shocking.
- You may hear noise or skipping if the CD is dirty or scratched.
- If during ESP play, you press PLAY/PAUSE, or SEARCH buttons,
the memory basket will empty itself temporarily.

MAINTENANCE
Handling Compact Discs
Cleaning the Lens
Dirty, scratched or warped discs may
cause skipping or noise.
•
A dirty lens will cause sound skipping. If
the lens is very dirty, the player may not
work. We suggest using a special
cleaning disk (not included) available in
most music and Hi-Fi stores. However, if
you do not have one, you may use the
instructions below.
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).
Use a cotton swab very slightly dampened
with alcohol to clean the lens.
Cleaning the Cabinet
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.
•
Wipe with a soft cloth. If the cabinet is
very dirty, dampen (not dripping wet) the
cloth with a weak solution of soapy water,
and then wipe clean.

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 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-90 is identified by a serial number located in the Battery Compartment. Record
this number in the space provided below.
Model CD-90 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.
