Inserting and replacing the batteries

For powering the SKM 300 G2 radiomicrophone, you can either use two 1.5 V AA size batteries or the rechargeable Sennheiser BA 2015 accupack.

Unscrew the display section

from the radiomicrophone’s body

by

turning it counterclockwise.

 

 

Slide back the display section

as far as it will go.

 

Open the battery compartment cover .

Insert the two batteries or the BA 2015 accupack as shown in the diagram on the left. Please observe correct polarity when inserting the batteries/ accupack.

Close the battery compartment cover .

Push the battery compartment into the radiomicrophone’s body.

Screw the display section tight.

Note:

For important informations on charging the accupack see “Inserting and replacing the batteries“ on page 15.

Changing the microphone head

First remove the batteries/accupack as described above and leave the radiomicrophone open.

Unscrew the sound inlet basket.

Loosen the screw and put it to one side.

Gently ease the capsule out of the contacts and then pull it out of the housing as shown. Do not touch the contacts and the diaphragm!

Insert the new capsule.

Secure the capsule by tightening the screw.

Note:

The screw mechanically secures the microphone capsule. If the screw is missing, malfunctions may occur during tough use.

Put on the sound inlet basket and identification ring supplied with the new microphone head (NB: do NOT use the old basket, as the different heads use slightly differing internal foam) and screw it tight.

Insert the batteries/accupack.

Close the radiomicrophone and put it into operation.

Note:

Microphone capsule, sound inlet basket and foam insert form an acoustic unit and must therefore always be exchanged all together. Each microphone head comes with a color-coded identification ring to distinguish different microphone heads from each other (green = MD 835, blue = MD 845, red = ME 865).
