PREPARATION

POWER SOURCES

You can operate the CTR-110 using:

•Internal battery power (using four C batteries)

•AC power (using an optional AC adapter)

•Vehicle battery power (using an optional DC adapter)

Note: Internal batteries automatically disconnect when you connect an adapter.

Using Batteries

You can power the CTR-110 from four C batteries (not supplied). For the best performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline batter- ies, such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23- 551.

1.Turn the CTR-110 on its face, pull the tabs on the battery com- partment’s cover and remove the cover.

2.Put four C batteries in the com- partment, as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked inside.

Cautions:

•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recom- mended type.

•Do not mix old and new bat- teries, different types of bat- teries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or recharge- able batteries of different capacities.

3.Replace the cover and snap it shut.

If the CTR-110 does not operate properly or if the sound weakens or distorts, replace the batteries.

Cautions:

Illustration

• Dispose of the old batteries promptly and properly. Do not bury or burn them.

• Never leave dead, old, or weak batteries in the CTR-110. Batter- ies can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
