Headphones
You may listen to your Delphi CD Audio System
through headphones. Plug the headphones into the
headphone jack on the back of the right speaker
enclosure. Many popular styles and types of head-
phones or ear buds can be used as long as their
plugs and/or adaptors fit the industry standard 3.5
mm diameter stereo jack.
You may also use the headphone jack as your line
output jack to play through your home stereo sys-
tem. Note: Most home stereo systems will work
with the Delphi CD Audio System. Due to Delphi’s
effort to maintain a distortion-free signal, some
home systems may exhibit a lower volume output
when connected to the Delphi CD Audio System
compared to other sources (e.g., CD players).
CAUTION: Hearing damage from loud
noise is almost undetectable until it is too
late. Your hearing can adapt to higher volumes
of sound. Sound that seems normal can be loud
and harmful to your hearing. Take precautions
by adjusting the volume control on your audio
system to a safe sound level before your hearing
adapts to it. To help avoid hearing loss or dam-
age, do the following:
1. Adjust the volume control to the lowest setting.
2. Increase volume slowly until you hear com-
fortably and clearly.
BATTERY OPERATION OF THE DELPHI CD
AUDIO SYSTEM
You can operate your Delphi CD Audio System with
six D-cell batteries (not supplied) outdoors or in
other locations without access to an A/C power
source. Alkaline or rechargeable NiCD or NiMH bat-
teries are recommended. Battery life will vary
depending on how the system is operated and the
type of batteries used.
Note: Rechargeable batteries are available in several
different capacities; the larger the “mAh” rating, the
longer the Delphi CD Audio System should play.
Some rechargeable batteries may provide sufficient
power for only 2 to 3 hours of playing time before
requiring recharging. To preserve battery life, the
A/C adaptor is recommended as the primary power
source for the Delphi CD Audio System. A 12V D/C
adaptor (Delphi model number SA10033) is also
available for use with 12V D/C portable power
sources or from a parked vehicle.
To insert batteries:
1. Disconnect the power adaptor from the back of
the Delphi CD Audio System.
2. Remove the left-side end cap from the lower
tube by unscrewing the cap counterclockwise
(Figure 24).
3. Insert six D-size (R20) batteries into the battery
compartment (lower tube). Make sure the
batteries face in the correct direction by verifying
that the positive (+) and negative (-) symbols in
the battery compartment match the same
symbols on the batteries.
4. Removing batteries is recommended when your
Delphi CD Audio System will not be in use for
an extended period of time. Batteries will dis-
charge slowly (approximately 30 days) even
when the Delphi CD Audio System is not in use.
