Battery life:
●
The continuous recording time is for
analogue inputs when the volume level
is set to “VOL 0”.
●
The continuous play time shows the
value when the volume level is set to
“VOL 15”.
●
The above values are the standard val-
ues when the unit is used at an ambient
temperature of 20
°
C (68
°
F).
●
The operating time when using alkaline
batteries may be different, depending on
the type and manufacturer of the bat-
tery, and on the operating temperature.
