5. NOMENCLATURE AND FUNCTIONS

Step 1. Rotate the battery cover counterclockwise to remove it.

Note
Detach the microphone from the hanger in advance.

Step 2. Insert six C batteries referring to the polarity diagram on

the inside of the battery compartment.

Step 3. Insert the tab on the inside of the battery cover into the

slot in the battery compartment as shown and turn the
battery cover clockwise until tight.

6. REPLACING THE BATTERIES

Step 1. Detach the microphone from the microphone hanger.

Note
Use the talk switch on the handle to activate the
megaphone for use, even when the microphone is
attached to the hanger. The hanger can rotate 360° to
allow easy microphone positioning.

Step 2. Using the volume control, adjust the volume to an

appropriate level that does not generate feedback when
holding down the talk switch.

Howling is more likely to occur when using the
megaphone indoors or in other reverberant places.
Particularly when the batteries are new, it may be
impossible to adjust the volume to maximum without
causing howling. In such cases, set the volume to about
mid-level.

Step 3. Speak into the microphone while holding it about 1 cm

away from the mouth.

Note
Speaking too far from the microphone or in too soft
voice may result in insufficient volume.

[When Attaching the Microphone]
Reduce the volume to its lowest setting, then press the
microphone onto the hanger. Leaving the volume set higher can
cause howling if the talk switch is accidentally pressed when
attaching or removing the microphone.
