Battery Compartment
Insert two 1.5 V AA or AM3 batteries prior
to use.
Use only leak-proof alkaline batteries LR6.
Or save money by using Philips rechargeable batter-
ies LFH 0153
Protect the environment: do not dispose of empty
batteries in household waste!
Note:
Remove the batteries from the Pocket
Memo if you do not intend to use the device for a
long period of time.
How to Dictate
When recording a dictation with your Pocket
Memo, please bear the following recommendations
in mind:
Always dictate punctuation marks such as full stop,
semicolon, hyphen, dash, slash, quotation marks,
brackets, etc.. However, you do not need to dictate
commas.
Clearly spell out special orthography. Example: y4,
say: lowercase y / superscript 4. Another example:
III 0-24B, say: Roman numeral three / space /
naught / hyphen / two four / uppercase B.
Give instructions on how to format the text:
‘indent’ / ‘end indent’, ‘stop/ underline word /
continue’, ‘paragraph’, etc.
Speak clearly and continuously and do not make
unnatural pauses or exaggerate how you pronounce
