POWER SOURCES
Power your CD player by connecting an optional AC ADAPTOR or by inserting 2
size “AA” fresh alkaline batteries.
1.Using with Batteries
BATTERY OPERATION
1. Slide the OPEN button to open the CD DOOR,
then open the BATTERY DOOR.
2. Insert 2 size “AA” fresh alkaline batteries as shown.
NOTE: Player will not work, and batteries will be
drained, if not inserted as shown inside
the Battery Compartment.
3. Close the BATTERY DOOR.
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 about 8 hours of continuous use for CD play.
2.AC Adaptor (optional)
Before you buy an optional AC Adaptor, please note, the only AC ADAPTOR suitable
for this player is DC 4.5V 600mA (or greater), with plus center polarity
.
Others may damage the player. Please check voltage & current (mA) before buying
an AC ADAPTOR. If you can not find the suitable AC Adaptor in the market, please
send a $8.00 money order (included shipping and handling) to our customer service
center to order the adaptor (please also mark the model number of your player):
LENOXX ELECTRONICS CORP., 2 GERMAK DRIVE, CARTERET N.J. 07008
WHEN
SHOWS IN THE DISPLAY
If the alkaline batteries are weak and discharged, this symbol “
” shows or
flashes in the display, then the power automatically turns off. If this occurs, replace
the alkaline batteries (also if the 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.

60 SECOND SKIP PROTECTION SYSTEM
This set is designed with the latest 60 second Electronic Skip Protection - which
allows virtually unlimited gentle skip protection above the normal shock protection.
The 60 second Electronic Skip Protection function prevents the sound from skipping
by using a buffer memory that stores music data. This new 60 second Electronic
Skip Protection system can store more music than normal 60 second anti-skip
systems.
This new design allows gentle swaying of the set (as in walking) without music
skipping. This function may not work during heavy jogging.
The Electronic Skip Protection function will turn on
automatically when the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed.
When the PLAY/PAUSE button is pressed, the “
”
(memory basket) indicator will appear in the display, the
digital data (music) is stored in the “read-ahead” memory
buffer before it is decoded and played. It may take a while
for the basket to fill.
The “
” mark changes to the “
” mark, indicating that the
EMPTY
MEMORY
memory buffer (basket) is full.
If the set is subject to a shock or a bump during play, the
data stored in memory continues to be decoded and
played. This gives the pickup time to stabilize and continue
reading new music. As the data is used from memory, the

If the set is subject to repeated shocks and all the data
stored in memory is used up, the “ ” mark is displayed
and the sound will skip or stop for a brief period until the
memory basket has time to fill up again.

NOTE:
- The music may stop if the player receives continuous
shocking or shaking.
- You may hear noise or skipping if the DISC is dirty or
scratched.
- If you press SKIP/SEARCH buttons, the memory basket
will empty itself temporarily.

A dirty lens will cause sound skipping. If
the lens is very dirty, the player may not

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 CD 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 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 optional DC 4.5V 600mA AC ADAPTOR with plus center polarity
, 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. Discontinue use or lower the volume.
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 weak. Replace both batteries at the same
time (see Using with Batteries).
Your KC-720 is identified by a serial number located on the bottom of the set. Record
this number in the space provided below.
Model KC-720 Serial No.
Date Purchased:
This manual 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 manual 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.
