3 – Preparation

Using AA batteries

Install 2 AA batteries in the included battery holder, and attach 

it to the unit.

1. 

Slide the cover from the battery holder (

f

) to remove it. 

Install 2 AA batteries with their 

¥

 and 

^

 marks as shown 

in the holder. Then reattach the cover.

2. 

Remove the battery holder connector cover.

3. 

Remove the bottom connector cover from the unit and 

attach the battery holder to the unit.

ATTENTION

If the BATTERY POWERED switch (

g

) on the battery holder 

was set to “ON” when it was connected to the unit, the switch 

must be set to “OFF” once and then back to “ON” in order to 

use battery power.

4. 

Set the battery type switch (

h

) according to the type of 

batteries being used.

5. 

Set the BATTERY POWERED switch (

g

) to “ON” to supply 

power from the batteries.

ATTENTION

 

i

Manganese dry cell batteries cannot be used with this unit.

 

i

This unit cannot recharge Ni-MH batteries. Use a 

commercially available recharger.

 

i

When not using the battery holder, attach the bottom 

connector cover to the unit. Using without this cover could 

result in this unit malfunctioning due to the ingress of foreign 

matter or connector damage, for example.

NOTE

A great amount of power is required to provide phantom 

power to condenser mics. If condenser mics are used while 

powering the unit with AA batteries, operation time will be 

shortened due to mic power consumption.
