1. Unscrew the BATTERY COMPARTMENT COVER (17) and remove, exposing the
BATTERY HOLDER (18). Insert a fresh 9V ALKALINE BATTERY (19), observing the
correct polarity as marked, and screw the cover back on to the microphone. Make
sure the cover is screwed on completely. A fresh alkaline battery can last up to 16
hours in use, but in order to ensure optimum performance, it is recommended that
you replace the battery after every 10 hours of use.
2. Turn on the WHT by sliding the OFF/STANDBY/ON SWITCH (20) to the STAND-
BY position (transmitter on, audio muted) or the ON position (transmitter
and audio both on). The BATTERY INDICATOR LED (21) will give a single quick flash,
indicating usable battery strength. In the case of a dead or low battery, the LED will
either not go on at all or will stay on continuously, indicating that the battery should
be replaced with a fresh one. To preserve battery life, turn the transmitter off when
not in use.
3. The microphone is now ready to use. Most or all of the RF LEVEL DISPLAY
LEDs (4) on the Encore Duet receiver should now be lit, indicating a received signal
from the transmitter. When ready to speak, slide the transmitter switch to the ON
position. Adjust the volume of the receiver as per the Audio Output Microphone
Connection section of the above Encore Duet receiver instructions. The AF LEVEL
LED DISPLAY (5) on the Encore Duet receiver will light up to 5 LEDs (4 green and 1
red) for all input signals. Occasional flickering on and off during use of the top red
LED indicator in this display is normal, however if the red LED stays on continuously,
it means the signal is too loud and there is the possibility of overload distortion. Back
off from the microphone until the red LED indicator only flickers on peaks.
[Note: Observe care in selecting P.A. volume, transmitter location and speaker
placement so that acoustic feedback (howling or screeching) will be avoided.]
[Note: Microphone elements can easily be destroyed by the buildup of salts
and minerals from perspiration and saliva. It is good practice to put a wind-
screen on the mic element at all times to protect it.]
