To record in better sound quality, select the HQ mode. For switching the recording mode, see Changing the Recording Mode on the reverse side. Before making a long recording, be sure to check the battery indicator. The maximum recording time and the number of messages you can make varies depending on the conditions of use. When you record messages in the mixture of HQ, SP and LP mode, the maximum recording time will be between those for the HQ and LP modes. Due to the limitation of the IC recording system, this unit records in the minimum recording unit of approx. 30 seconds at most, therefore the following symptoms may occur: When a message is shorter than the minimum recording unit, it is still counted as approx. 30 seconds at most so the remaining recording time will decrease by more than the actual length of the message. When the message is longer than the minimum recording unit, the remaining recording time will decrease by more than the actual length of the message if it cannot be divided by the minimum recording unit without a remainder. The sum of the number on the counter (elapsed recording time) and the remaining recording time may be less than the units maximum recording time.

Searching forward/ backward during playback (Cue/Review)
To search forward, keep >+ pressed during playback and release the button at the point you wish to resume playback. To search backward, keep . pressed during playback and release the button at the point you wish to resume playback. If you keep >+ or .pressed, the unit starts to search at higher speed. For the first 10 seconds of cue/ review, fast playback sound can be heard. When searching at a higher speed, playback sound will not be heard. During cue/review, the counter will be displayed, regardless of the display mode setting. 1 Tip
Do not use manganese batteries for this unit. When you replace the batteries, insert the new ones within 3 minutes after you removed the exhausted ones. Otherwise, the display may show the clock setting display or incorrect date and time when you reinsert the batteries. In this case, set the date and time again. The recorded messages and alarm setting, however, will remain. When replacing the batteries, be sure to replace both batteries with new ones. Do not charge dry batteries. When you are not going to use the unit for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from battery leakage and corrosion. The unit is accessing data while ACCESS appears in the display window. While accessing, do not remove the batteries. Doing so may damage the data.
