Preparation
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recom-
mended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of bat-
teries.
1. Press down on the battery compartment cover and slide it
off in the direction of the arrow marked on the cover.
2. Place the batteries into the compartment as indicated by
the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked beside it.
3. Replace the cover.
If the REC/BATT indicator does not light (or is dimly lit) when
you press
PLAY
,
FAST-F/CUE
, or
REWIND/REV
, replace the bat-
teries.
Cautions:
• Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn
or bury them.
• If you do not plan to use the recorder with batteries for a
week or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
