POWER SUPPLY
Whenever convenient, use the mains 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 compartment and insert six batteries, type R-14, UM-2 or
C-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+"
and "–" symbols inside the compartment. (See 1)
2
Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are firmly and cor-
rectly in place. The set is now ready to operate.
– Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be dis-
posed of properly.
– Perchlorate Material-special handling may apply. See
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
•
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 Mains
1
Check if the power/mains 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.
