Installing/Replacing Batteries for Portable Operation
This unit requires 4 “AA” (R6) batteries, not included, for portable operation. We
recommend using a well-known brand of alkaline batteries for longest life and best
performance.

b) Insert 4 “AA” (R6) batteries in the compartment according to the polarity (+/ - )
markings engraved in the compartment. Note: If the batteries are inserted incorrectly
the unit will not work.
c) Replace the battery compartment door.
Replace the batteries when the sound of the unit becomes weak or distorted.
