CONNECTIONS AND CONTROLS Power Supply
Whenever convenient, use the mains supply cord if you want to conserve battery life. Make sure you remove the plug from the set and wall outlet before inserting batteries. Batteries (not included) Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type R14, UM-2 or C-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+" and "�" symbols inside the compartment. (See 1) Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are firmly and correctly in place. The set is now ready to operate. Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly. Incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage and will corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to burst: Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with carbon zinc. Only use batteries of the same type for the set. When inserting new batteries, do not try to mix old batteries with the new ones. Remove the batteries if the set is not to be used for a long time. Using AC Mains Check if the power/mains voltage, as shown on the type plate located on the bottom of the set, corresponds to your local power supply. If it does not, consult your dealer or service center. Connect the power cord to the AC POWER/MAINS inlet and the wall socket. The mains lead is now connected and ready for use. To switch the set off completely, withdraw the power cord from the wall socket. Disconnect the mains lead from the wall socket to protect your set during heavy thunderstorms. The type plate is located on the bottom of the set. Switching POWER on/off: Save energy To avoid unnecessary energy consumption, always adjust the source selector to TAPE/POWER OFF after using the set. Also check that the tape deck keys are released.
