Power Sources; Battery Installation; Headphones Jack - Memorex MP3142 User Manual

This unit is designed to operate on AC household current or DC (batteries).
AC
Use the AC polarized line cord included with the unit for operation on AC power. Insert
one end of the AC line cord into the AC jack on the rear of the unit and the other end
(with the 2 blades) into a conveniently located AC
outlet having 120V, 60Hz. When the AC cord is
plugged in, the batteries will be disconnected.
NOTE: The AC plug supplied with the unit is polar-
ized to help minimize the possibility of electric shock.
If the AC plug does not fit into a nonpolarized AC out-
let, do not file or cut the wide blade. It is the user's
responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.
