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.

bass sound.

ization for normal or CrO2/metal cassette tapes.

Three Power Sources — let you power your SCP-

86 from internal batteries (not supplied), standard AC

power (with an optional AC adapter), or your

vehicle’s battery (with an optional DC adapter) so

you can listen to music almost anywhere.

Belt Clip — lets you attach the SCP-86 to your belt

for hands-free carrying when you are on the go.

Take a few minutes to read this manual so you can

enjoy all the features of your SCP-86.

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.

14-1227.fm Page 5 Friday, July 2, 1999 4:20 PM

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.

14-1227.fm Page 6 Friday, July 2, 1999 4:20 PM

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.

14-1227.fm Page 7 Friday, July 2, 1999 4:20 PM

• 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.

14-1227.fm Page 9 Friday, July 2, 1999 4:20 PM

Follow these steps to power the SCP-86 from your

vehicle’s battery.

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 other end of the adapter into the vehi-

cle’s cigarette-lighter socket.
