BASIC OPERATIONS

Power on/off
To power on, press the 'Play/Pause/Power On' button (Ref.4). Press the 'STOP' button twice (Ref.5) to turn off the player. If the player will not be used for an extended period of time, ensure that it is switched off.

Hold
While the player is in use, you can switch the Hold button to the 'Hold' position (Ref.11). This will place the unit in 'Hold' mode. In 'Hold' mode, the buttons will be inactive. If any button is pressed while the unit is in 'Hold' mode, the screen will display a lock icon in the top right hand side.

Battery Use
Slide open the battery cover (Ref.10) and insert 2 x AA batteries (included) into the battery compartment. Ensure that the polarities are correct and the negative (-) side is aligned with the smooth end of the battery, and the positive side (+) is aligned with the opposite end of the battery. 2 new AA batteries will provide for approximately 7 hours of battery life.

AC Adapter Use
To use the CD10 connected to a wired power source, connect the USB charging cable (included) from any standard USB 2.0 connection (such as a laptop or mains USB adapter) to the charging port on the device (Ref.13).

Inserting a Disc
Slide the 'OPEN' switch (Ref.2) to the 'OPEN' position to open the device door. Insert the disc into the CD player, label side up, pressing it gently until it snaps into place on the spindle.
Close the disc door gently. Ensure that the disc door is completely closed, otherwise the player will not read the disc.
Compatible disc format support: CD, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3, WMA

Using headphones or external speakers
Listen to your audio CD through headphones by inserting wired headphones (with a standard 3.5mm connector) into the headphone socket of the player (Ref.14). Ensure that the headphone connector is fully inserted into the device.
To listen to your audio CD through external speakers, connect a standard 3.5mm AUX cable from the CD player to your external speakers or output device. Control the playback using the controls on the CD player. You will now be able to hear audio through your external speakers or other output device.

My CD Player displays 'ESP' on the screen. What does this mean?
ESP stands for 'Electronic Shock Protection'. When you see this on the display, it indicates that the ESP is functioning to prevent shocks or bumps to the unit causing the track you are playing to skip.
