Safety instructions

Never open electronic devices! This must only be done by
authorised personnel and is all the more important for current-
carrying units.

As far as possible, use your SKM 3072-U in dry rooms only. When
you are using the SKM 3072-U outside, it must be protected against
direct moisture. In outdoor applications, always use a windshield.

Use a damp cloth for cleaning your SKM 3072-U. Do not use any
solvents.

Error checklist

Transmitter does not work:

Battery is flat, replace the battery! (

 chapter 8), battery is not

inserted or inserted the wrong way round. Transmitter is defective
(=> send transmitter to a Sennheiser service department!).

No transmission:

Receiver or transmitter are not switched on or transmission
frequency does not agree with receiving frequency.

Short hissing noise or short interruption:

Position of receiving antennæ is unfavourable. Make sure that there
is a “free line of sight” between the transmitter and the antennæ.

Microphone gain too low / microphone overmodulated :

Sensitivity adjusted too low / too high
(=> adjust sensitivity! 

 chapter 15).

After switch-on, the display first indicates “3072-U“ and then
“LoBAt”,the transmitter switches off:

Remaining battery capacity is not sufficient for operation
(=> replace battery! 

 chapter 8).

Transmitter switches off during operation:

After “

LoBAt

” – alternating with the display for frequency/channel

number – has been shown for a certain amount of time, the battery
has become completely flat, the transmitter has switched off
(=> replace battery! 

 chapter 8).

Transmitter cannot be switched off:

“Lock mode” function is activated. “

Loc

” is briefly indicated on

the display (=> deactivate “lock mode“ function! 

 chapter 18).

Transmitter cannot be switched to “CHxxx”:

No channel number is entered, “

CH---

” is briefly indicated,

transmitter switches back to frequency display (=> enter a channel
number! 

 chapter 17).

Strong twittering:

Two transmitters operate on the same frequency, the preselected
frequency is subject to interference (=> change the transmission
and receiving frequency! 

 chapter 16).
