FEATURES
Your Optimus SCP-86 AM/FM Stereo Cassette Play-
er delivers high-fidelity stereo sound through your
headphones or amplified speaker system. Because
the SCP-86 is portable, you can listen to cassette
tapes or the AM/FM radio indoors or out.
Important: To listen to your SCP-86, you need a pair
of headphones or amplified speakers (not supplied)
with a 1/8-inch mini-plug. Your local RadioShack
store sells a wide variety of headphones and speak-
ers.
Its features include:
Automatic Reverse — automatically changes the
tape direction at the end of a tape side so you can
continuously play both sides of a cassette tape.
Tape Direction Control — lets you change the
tape’s direction at any time without having to eject
the tape and turn it over.
Dolby B Noise Reduction — reduces background
and tape noise to improve the sound of your tapes.

PREPARATION
CONNECTING TO POWER
You can power your SCP-86 from:
• Internal batteries
• AC power (using an AC adapter)
• Your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket (using a
DC adapter)
Using Battery Power
To power the SCP-86 from internal batteries, you
need two AA batteries. For the best performance and
longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such
as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557.
You can also use rechargeable nickel-cadmium
batteries (Cat. No. 23-125). These batteries (and a
battery charger, Cat. No. 23-133) are available at
your local RadioShack store.
Caution: Do not mix old and new batteries, different
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or recharge-
able), or rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.

Follow these steps to install batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment cover by press-
ing down and sliding it in the direction of the
arrow on the cover, then lifting open the cover.
Caution: The battery compartment cover is
hinged. Do not try to remove it.
2. Insert the batteries into the compartment as indi-
cated by the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked
outside the battery compartment.
3. Close the cover.
If the OPE/BATT indicator becomes dim during oper-
ation or does not light when you turn on the SCP-86,
replace (alkaline) or recharge (nickel-cadmium) both
batteries.
Caution: Always dispose of old batteries promptly
and properly.

Important: This product is capable of using re-
chargeable nickel-cadmium batteries. At the end of
the batteries’ useful life, they must be recycled or dis-
posed of properly. Contact your local, county, or
state hazardous waste management authorities for
information on recycling or disposal programs in your
area. Some options that might be available are:
municipal curbside collection, drop-off boxes at re-
tailers, such as your local RadioShack store,
recycling collection centers, and mail-back programs.
Using AC Power
To power the SCP-86 from a standard AC outlet, you
need an AC adapter such as Cat. No. 273-1654.
Cautions:
• You must use an AC adapter that supplies 3
volts DC power and delivers at least 200 milli-
amps. Its center tip must be set to negative, and
its plug must properly fit the SCP-86’s DC 3V
jack. The recommended adapter meets these
requirements. Using an adapter that does not
meet these requirements could damage the
SCP-86 or the adapter.

• Be sure you connect the adapter to the SCP-86
before you plug it into the AC outlet and that you
unplug the adapter from the AC outletbefore you
unplug it from the SCP-86, to prevent damage to
the SCP-86 or the adapter.
Follow these steps to connect the SCP-86 to AC
power.
1. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to 3V.
2. Insert the adapter’s 3.4 mm outer diameter/1.3
mm inner diameter barrel plug into the adapter’s
cord, with the tip set to negative.
3. Insert the plug into the SCP-86’s DC 3V jack.
4. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
Note: Connecting the AC adapter automatically dis-
connects the internal batteries.

Using Vehicle Battery Power
To power the SCP-86 from your vehicle’s battery,
you need a DC adapter, such as Cat. No. 270-1560.
Cautions:
• You must use a DC adapter that supplies 3 volts
DC power and delivers at least 200 milliamps. Its
center tip must be set to negative, and its plug
must properly fit the SCP-86’s DC 3V jack. The
recommended adapter meets these require-
ments. Using an adapter that does not meet
these requirements could damage the SCP-86.
• Be sure you plug the adapter into the SCP-86
before you plug it into the cigarette-lighter
socket, and that you unplug the adapter from the
cigarette-lighter socket before you unplug it from
the SCP-86, to prevent damage to the SCP-86
or the adapter.
