FEATURES
Your Optimus SCP-87 Digital AM/FM Stereo Cas-
sette Player delivers excellent stereo sound through
your headphones or amplified speaker system. Be-
cause the SCP-87 is portable, you can listen to cas-
sette tapes or the AM/FM radio indoors or out.
Important: To listen to your SCP-87, you need a pair
of headphones or amplified speakers (not supplied)
with a 1/8-inch mini-plug. Your local RadioShack
store sells many headphones and speakers.
This player’s features include:
PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) Tuning — gives you
precise tuning and drift-free reception.
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 to play the other side at any time
without having to eject the tape and turn it over.
Display — shows the currently tuned station.

PREPARATION
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
To protect the playback head
during shipment, a protective
sleeve is attached. Remove it
before you use the SCP-87’s
cassette player.
CONNECTING TO POWER
You can power your SCP-87 from:
• Internal batteries
• AC power (using an AC adapter)
• Your vehicle’s battery (using a DC adapter)
Using Battery Power
The SCP-87 can use two AA batteries for power. For
the best performance and longest life, we recom-
mend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat.
No. 23-557.
You can also use rechargeable nickel-cadmium bat-
teries (Cat. No. 23-125). These batteries (and a bat-
tery 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 capaci-
ties.
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 compartment.
3. Close the cover.

If the BATT indicator becomes dim during operation
or does not light when you turn on the SCP-87, re-
place (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: mu-
nicipal curbside collection, drop-off boxes at retailers
such as your local RadioShack store, recycling col-
lection centers, and mail-back programs.

Using AC Power
To power the SCP-87 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 300 milli-
amps. Its center tip must be set to negative, and
its plug must properly fit the SCP-87’s DC 3V
jack. The recommended adapter meets these
requirements. Using an adapter that does not
meet these requirements could damage the
SCP-87 or the adapter.
• Be sure you connect the adapter to the SCP-87
before you plug it into the AC outlet and that you
unplug the adapter from the AC outlet before you
unplug it from the SCP-87, to prevent damage to
the SCP-87 or the adapter.

Follow these steps to connect the SCP-87 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 tip into the adapter’s cord, so
it reads –TIP.
3. Insert the plug into the SCP-87’s DC 3V jack.
4. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
Note: Connecting the AC adapter automatically
disconnects internal batteries.
