This document describes a CD Boombox, model ATA22AA001A, designed for playing Compact Discs and receiving FM radio. The device is branded "ASDA tech" and comes with a product guide that outlines its operation and safety instructions.
The primary function of this device is to play audio from Compact Discs and to tune into FM radio frequencies. As a CD player, it supports standard audio CDs and offers various playback modes. For radio, it features both scanning and fine-tuning capabilities for FM frequencies, along with the option to save preferred stations as presets. The boombox is designed for portability, featuring a carry handle and the option to be powered by batteries, making it suitable for use in various locations. Alternatively, it can be powered via an AC/DC adapter for stationary use.
To play a CD, the user first opens the disc door, places a CD with the label side facing up, and then closes the door. After powering on the unit, the user selects CD mode using the CD/FM button. Playback begins by pressing the Play/Pause button. The device allows users to skip tracks forward or backward using dedicated buttons. For more precise navigation, holding these buttons down enables searching through a track. The boombox supports different playback modes, including Shuffle, Repeat (repeating the current track or the entire CD), and Standard Play. These modes can be selected using the dedicated playback mode button, with the display indicating the active mode.
The device offers a programming feature, allowing users to create a custom playlist of up to 20 tracks from a CD. While a CD is playing, the user can initiate programming by pressing and holding the program button. The display will show "00" flashing, prompting the user to select tracks using the track skip buttons. Each selected track is added to the program by pressing the Play/Pause button. Once all desired tracks are added, pressing the Play/Pause button again starts the programmed sequence. The Stop button can be pressed twice to end the program.
For radio listening, the user powers on the unit and switches to Radio mode using the CD/FM button. The device offers two ways to tune into FM frequencies:
Users can save up to 10 preferred FM radio stations as presets (P01 to P10). After tuning to a desired frequency, the user presses and holds the preset button. The display will show "Preset" and a flashing preset number. The user can then use the track skip buttons to select the desired preset slot and press the Play/Pause button to save the station. Once saved, users can cycle through the stored radio presets using the track skip buttons when the radio is on.
The device includes a Power button to turn the unit ON or OFF. A Volume control allows adjustment of the audio output level. A Headphone Jack (3.5mm audio output) is provided for private listening. The display shows relevant information such as current mode, track number, frequency, and preset number.
The boombox can be powered by plugging an AC/DC adapter into a standard power outlet. For portable use, it requires six C batteries (not included). The battery compartment is located on the underside of the unit, with clear polarity indicators for correct battery insertion.
The device should only be cleaned with a dry cloth. No liquids or sprays should be used directly on the unit.
When using batteries, it is important to replace all old batteries with new ones simultaneously. Mixing old and new batteries, or different types of batteries (alkaline, standard carbon-zinc, or rechargeable NiMH/NiCd), is not recommended. The device is designed to use standard C-size batteries. If rechargeable batteries are used, they should be NiMH type, as attempting to charge standard alkaline batteries in the unit poses an explosion risk. Batteries should be recycled or disposed of according to state and local guidelines.
The product incorporates double insulation for safety. It is equipped with safety switches to prevent laser exposure when the CD door is open. Users are warned against attempting to defeat or bypass these safety switches. Servicing should only be performed by qualified personnel, especially if the unit has been damaged, exposed to moisture, or is not operating normally. The power cord should be protected from being walked on or pinched. The mains plug serves as the disconnect device and should remain easily accessible. The device should not be exposed to rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and objects filled with liquids should not be placed on it. Batteries should be kept away from children, and immediate medical attention should be sought if batteries are swallowed.
