While the advent of MP3 players have made portable CD players increasingly rare, they do offer mobility and excellent sound quality for your travel and recreational needs. Many Panasonic portable CD players are equipped with an external AC power cord, so the device can be plugged into an electric outlet when possible, saving the batteries for on-the-go usage. These power cords are not wired directly into the players, but must be plugged in when used. If you have lost your original cord, you'll need to get a new one. Fortunately they are available for many Panasonic models. Here's an example of how to replace the cord for a Panasonic model SL-CT470A portable CD player.
Instructions
- 1
Go to the Panasonic website (see Resources). Click "Support" and then "Support for Consumers." A new page will open, asking your to "Enter your model or keyword." The model number of your CD player can be found in the manual or on the data plate on the bottom of the player. Enter the model number and press the arrow button to the right.
2Click the option on the new window that says "SL-CT470A Operating Instructions (English)." Your model number will show up instead of "SL-CT470A" if you've entered a different model number in Step 1. When the new window opens, look under the heading for "Supplied Accessories." Note the item number for the AC adapter. In this case the number is RFEA415C-1S.
3Open a search window on your computer. Type in Panasonic RFEA415C-1S in the search box. You'll find several sources for this part. Follow the website's instructions for ordering the new power cord.
