Cautions
Listening caution
EST. 1924
Do not play your headphones or earphones at a high
volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous ex-
tended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume
or discontinue use.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle. It may
create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily discon-
tinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
Even if your headphones or earphones are the open-air
type designed to let you hear outside sounds, don't turn
up the volume so high that you can't hear what's around
you.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "com-
fort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what
sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to
your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe
level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥Start your volume control at a low setting.
≥Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it com-
fortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
≥Leave it there.
Discontinue use if you experience discomfort with
the headphones or any other parts that directly con-
tact your skin. Continued use may cause rashes or
other allergic reactions.

Selection and care of rechargeable/dry cell batteries
∫ Selection
As a safety precaution, the portable CD players made
by Panasonic are constructed so it is impossible to
recharge ordinary batteries.
Only batteries especially designed for this unit can be
recharged.
Special rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries:
P-3GAVA/2B (set of 2)

Special rechargeable
batteries
≥If rechargeable battery play time is short after recharg-
ing, the batteries have reached the end of their service
life. Replace them with the recommended replace-
ments.
≥Play time may be shorter than usual after recharging
batteries for the first time or after they have been un-
used for a long time. Repeatedly recharge and dis-
charge the batteries if this occurs to restore them to
normal.
∫ Care
To prevent battery damage, electrolyte leakage and
short-circuiting, heed the following points.
≥Do not peel off the covering on batteries and do not
use if the covering has been peeled off.
≥Align the poles + and - correctly when inserting the
batteries.
≥Do not mix different types of batteries or old and new
batteries.

≥Is the disc properly secured in place?
≥Is there condensation on the lens?
≥(Wait for about an hour and then try again.)
≥Is the disc dirty or scratched or the lens dirty?
(Wipe the disc clean and clean the lens. If it is an
MP3 disc and it is badly scratched, rerecord the
files onto a fresh disc.)
≥Is the random play mode on?
≥Did you stop play in the middle of the disc last
time?
≥Are the headphone and wired remote control plugs

≥Are the plugs dirty? (Wipe away dirt on plug.)
≥Separate the unit from mobile phones.
Are you using the unit too near a TV or tuner?
(Keep the unit away from the TV or tuner.)
≥The title exceeds the 30-character limit of this unit.
≥This unit cannot display some characters entered
with computers and other equipment (e.g., 2-byte
code).
≥Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the
unit for a long time.
≥Do not throw into fire, short-circuit, disassemble, or
subject to excessive heat.
≥Do not attempt to recharge dry cell batteries.
≥Do not allow metal objects to touch the battery termi-
nals as this may cause short-circuiting which is dan-
gerous.
≥When carrying batteries in a pocket or bag, ensure no
metal objects such as necklaces are placed together
with them. Contact with metal may cause short-circuit-
ing which can cause a fire.
When driving a car
