4 Setting into Operation
The megaphone can either be operated with batteries
or be supplied with power externally, e. g. via the 12 V
electric system of a car or a 12 V power supply unit.
When connecting an external power supply, the
inserted batteries are switched off.
4.1 Inserting Batteries
1) Open the latch (4) and unfold the battery compart-
ment cover (8).
2) Insert eight 1.5 V batteries of C size into the battery
compartment. Observe the correct polarity (see
imprint in the battery compartment).
3) Close the battery compartment; fold the cover (8)
upwards and lock it with the latch.
If the unit is not used for a longer period (e. g. more
than a week), the batteries should be removed to pre-
vent damage to the unit due to battery leakage.
4.2 External power supply
For connection to the power supply jack DC 12 V (7) a
low voltage plug
∅
2.1 / 5.5 mm (inside/outside diame-
ter) with positive polarity at the inside contact is
required. A connection cable with a plug for the socket
of the carʼs electric system (cigarette lighter socket,
centre contact positive) is supplied with the mega-
phone. When using the cigarette lighter socket, for a
good electric contact ensure that this socket is not con-
taminated with ash. If necessary, clean it with a soft,
dry cloth.
5 Operation
1) For talking, set the switch (9) to position SPEAK.
The microphone can be hand-held or put onto the
hook on the rear side of the megaphone. Talk into
the front side of the microphone (2) while keeping
one of the two talk switches (1) pressed. The switch
at the hand-held microphone can be engaged by
sliding it in the direction of the arrow. Then the
microphone remains switched on. Hold the micro-
phone as close to your mouth as possible.
2) Adjust the desired volume with the control (3). In
case of howlback, turn back the control accordingly.
3) To switch on the siren or the whistling sound, set the
switch (9) to position SIREN or WHISTLE and press
one talk switch (1).
