Notes

• If you want to record clear or noise-free dictation, select DICT mode and place the microphone 3 to 4 inches from the source.

• If the ambient (background) noise is too loud to get a clear recording even in DICT mode, we recommend that you use an ME12 single directional microphone (sold separately).
