Power Supply
Whenever convenient, use the power supply
cord if you want to conserve battery life.
Make sure you remove the plug from the set
and wall outlet before inserting batteries.
Batteries (not included)
1 Open the battery door and insert 6 batteries,
type R20, UM1 or D-cells, (preferably alkaline)
with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+"
and "–" symbols inside the compartment.
2 Close the battery door, making sure the
batteries are firmly and correctly in place. The
set is now ready to operate.
Batteries contain chemical substances, so
they should be disposed of properly.
• Incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte
leakage and will corrode the compartment or
cause the batteries to burst:
• Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with
carbon zinc. Only use batteries of the same
type for the set.
• When inserting new batteries, do not try to
mix old batteries with the new ones.
• Remove the batteries if the set is not to be
used for a long time.
Using AC power
WARNING: Always check you have
completely switched off the set, before
you change or disconnect power supply.
1 Check if the power voltage, as shown on
the type plate located on the bottom
of the set,
corresponds to your local power
supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or
service center.
2 Connect the power cord to the AC
MAINS~ inlet and the wall socket. The set is
now connected and ready for use.
3 To switch the set off completely, withdraw the
power cord from the wall socket.
4 Install the unit near the AC outlet and where
the AC power plug can be easily reached.
• Disconnect the power cord from the wall
socket to protect your set during heavy
thunderstorms. Children could seriously injure
themselves as the free end of the cable may
still be live if only the connector is removed
from the MAINS socket at the back of the
unit.
The type plate is located on the bottom
of the set.
Helpful hints:
– To avoid unnecessary energy consumption,
always adjust the Source selector to OFF
after using the set.
