Preparation
Using Optional Adapters
You can power the recorder using an AC or DC adapter that
supplies 3V and delivers at least 300 mA, and a size A Adapta-
plug™
(neither supplied). Both are available at your local
RadioShack store.
Cautions:
• You must use a power source (Class 2 for AC) that sup-
plies 3V DC and delivers at least 300 mA. Its center tip
must be set to positive, and its plug must fit the recorder’s
DC 3V
jack. Using an adapter that does not meet these
specifications could damage the recorder or the adapter.
• Be sure you connect the adapter to the recorder before you
plug it into the AC outlet or cigarette-lighter socket, and
unplug the adapter from the AC outlet or cigarette-lighter
socket before you unplug it from the recorder.
1. If necessary, set the adapter’s voltage switch to 3V.
2. Insert the Adaptaplug into the adapter’s cord, with the tip
set to positive.
3. Insert the barrel plug into the recorder’s
DC 3V
jack.
4. Plug the other end of the adapter into the power source.
Note: If the recorder does not operate properly when connected
to a cigarette-lighter socket, unplug the adapter and clean any
ashes and other debris from the socket.
