POWER SUPPLY

English

6 x D-cells - R20 - UM4
Whenever convenient, use the power supply if you want to conserve battery life. Make sure you remove the plug from the set and wall socket before inserting batteries. BATTERIES (OPTIONAL)
1. Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type R-20, UM-4 or D-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct polarity as indicated by the "+" and "-" symbols inside the compartment.

Remote control (supplied) Open the battery compartment and insert two batteries, type AAA, R03 or UM1 (preferably alkaline).
2. Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are firmly and correctly in place. The set is now ready to operate. If BATT LOW lights up, battery power is running low. The BATT LOW indicator eventually goes out if the batteries are too weak. Incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage and will corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to burst. Therefore: 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. Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed of properly For users in the U.K.: please follow the instructions on page 2.

USING AC POWER

1. Check if the 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 centre. 2. If your set is equipped with a voltage selector, adjust the selector so that it matches with the local mains. 3. Connect the mains lead to the wall socket and the set is now ready for use. 4. To disconnect the set from the mains completely, remove the plug from the wall socket.
