PREPARATION
Caution: Do not use the receiver/
amplifier’s PHONO inputs. Doing
so could damage the receiver/am-
plifier.
CONNECTING THE CD
CHANGER
Follow these steps to connect the CD
changer to your audio system and to
power.
4. Plug the CD changer’s power cord
into a standard AC outlet.
USING THE REMOTE
CONTROL
Installing Batteries
Your CD changer’s remote control re-
quires two AA batteries (not supplied)
for power. We recommend alkaline
batteries, such as RadioShack Cat.
No. 23-552, for the best performance
and longest life.
1. Select a location for your CD
changer that is near your receiver/
amplifier and a standard AC out-
let.
Caution: Do not place the CD
changer on top of the receiver/am-
plifier or any other component that
gets hot.
Cautions:
• Always use fresh batteries of the
required size and recommended
type.
Note: If you place the CD changer
near other audio components or
their wires, you might hear a hum
when you play a CD. To eliminate
the hum, move the components or
their wires.
• Do not mix old and new batteries,
different types of batteries (stan-
dard, alkaline, or rechargeable),
or rechargeable batteries of differ-
ent capacities.
2. Plug one end of the supplied au-
dio cable into the CD changer’s
LINE OUT L (left) and R (right) out-
put jacks, matching the red plug to
the red R jack and the white plug
to the white L jack.
1. Pull the latch on the battery com-
partment cover and lift it off.
illustration
3. Plug the other end of the cable
into the receiver/amplifier’s left
and right CD, AUX, or TAPE input
jacks.
8
42-5072.fm Page 9 Thursday, August 12, 1999 10:55 AM
2. Install the batteries in the com-
partment as indicated by the po-
larity symbols (+ and –) marked
inside.
Using the Remote
You can use the remote control for
any of the CD changer’s functions ex-
cept turning power on/off and opening/
closing the CD compartment.
For the best results, point the remote
control toward REMOTE SENSOR on
the front of the CD changer.
illustration
3. Replace the cover.
You can use the remote control up to
a distance of about 20 feet. If the re-
mote control operates erratically or
does not work, replace both batteries.
Cautions:
• Never leave dead or weak batter-
ies in the remote control. Batteries
can leak chemicals that can cor-
rode the control.
• If you will not be using the remote
control for a month or more, re-
move the batteries.

TROUBLESHOOTING
With proper care and handling, your CD changer should give you years of trouble-
free service. However, if your CD-8250 is not working properly, follow these sug-
gestions to see if you can eliminate the problem. If you still have a problem, take

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Optimus CD-8250 5-Disc Compact Disc Changer is an example of superior
design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for the CD
changer so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the CD changer dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq-
uids might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the CD changer only in normal temperature environ-
ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic de-
vices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Handle the CD changer gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cases and can cause the CD changer to work im-
properly.
Keep the CD changer away from dust and dirt, which can cause pre-
mature wear of parts.
Wipe the CD changer with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it look-
ing new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong de-
tergents to clean the CD changer.
Modifying or tampering with the your CD changer’s internal components can cause
a malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to
operate it. If your CD changer is not performing as it should, take it to your local Ra-
dioShack store for assistance.

CD CARE TIPS
THE FCC WANTS YOU
TO KNOW
Even though a compact disc is very
durable, treat the CD surface with
care. Here are some tips:
This system complies with the limits
for a Class B digital device as speci-
fied in Part 15 of FCC Rules. These
limits provide reasonable protection
against TV or radio interference in a
residential area. However, your sys-
tem might cause TV or radio interfer-
ence even when it is operating
properly.
• Do not place anything but a CD in
the disc tray. This can damage the
drive mechanism.
• Do not write on either side of the
CD, particularly the non-label side
(signals are read from the non-la-
bel side).
To eliminate interference, you can try
one or more of the following corrective
measures.
• Do not store CDs in high-
temperature, high-humidity loca-
tions. The CDs might warp.
• Reorient or relocate the TV or ra-
dio’s receiving antenna.
• Keep CDs dry. A water drop can
act as a lens and affect the laser
beam’s focus.
• Increase the distance between the
system and the TV or radio.
• Always handle a CD by the edges
to avoid fingerprints and always
keep it in its protective case or
sleeve when not in use. Finger-
prints and scratches on the CD’s
surface can prevent the laser
beam from correctly reading the
digital information. To clean the
CD surface, use a CD cleaner kit
(such as Cat. No. 42-225). If the
CD gets scratched, use Scratch ’n
Fix (RadioShack Cat. No. 42-
127).
• Use outlets on different electrical
circuits for the system and the TV
or radio.
Consult your local RadioShack store if
the problem still exists.

This product is warranted by RadioShack against manufacturing defects in material and workman-
ship under normal use for one (1) year from the date of purchase from RadioShack company-owned
stores and authorized RadioShack franchisees and dealers. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, Ra-
dioShack MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING
THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED
IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THE WRITTEN LIMITED WARRANTIES CONTAINED
HEREIN. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED HEREIN, RadioShack SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY OR RE-
SPONSIBILITY TO CUSTOMER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY
LIABILITY, LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BY USE OR PERFOR-

CLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM INCONVENIENCE, LOSS
OF TIME, DATA, PROPERTY, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDEN-
TAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF RadioShack HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Some states do not allow the limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion of in-
cidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
In the event of a product defect during the warranty period, take the product and the RadioShack
sales receipt as proof of purchase date to any RadioShack store. RadioShack will, at its option, un-
less otherwise provided by law: (a) correct the defect by product repair without charge for parts and
labor; (b) replace the product with one of the same or similar design; or (c) refund the purchase
price. All replaced parts and products, and products on which a refund is made, become the prop-
erty of RadioShack. New or reconditioned parts and products may be used in the performance of
warranty service. Repaired or replaced parts and products are warranted for the remainder of the
original warranty period. You will be charged for repair or replacement of the product made after the
expiration of the warranty period.
This warranty does not cover: (a) damage or failure caused by or attributable to acts of God, abuse,
accident, misuse, improper or abnormal usage, failure to follow instructions, improper installation or
maintenance, alteration, lightning or other incidence of excess voltage or current; (b) any repairs
other than those provided by a RadioShack Authorized Service Facility; (c) consumables such as
fuses or batteries; (d) cosmetic damage; (e) transportation, shipping or insurance costs; or (f) costs
of product removal, installation, set-up service adjustment or reinstallation.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
