Cautions:

• If you do not plan to use the Listener for a week or more, or if you plan to

use only an AC adapter, remove the battery. Batteries can leak chemicals
that can destroy electronic parts.

• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.

Using AC Power

To power the Listener from a standard AC outlet, you need an AC adapter such
as Cat. No. 273-1431.
