POWER SUPPLY

Operation on household AC

1Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC IN Ó jack on the rear panel of the unit.

2Plug the AC power cord into an AC power outlet.

Cautions

•Use only the JVC power cord provided with this unit to avoid malfunction or damage to the unit.

•Even when you turn off the unit by pressing the

STANDBY/ON button, a very small current continues to flow. To save power and for safety when not using the unit for an extended period of time, disconnect the power cord from the household AC outlet.

Operation on batteries

Installing batteries

Battery replacement

When the tape speed or output sound level decreases, or CD playback becomes intermittent, replace all batteries with fresh ones.

For better battery usage

•When making an important recording, use of new batteries (preferably alkaline batteries with a longer service life) is recommended to avoid any possible failure.

•To prevent the power from being accidentally turned on, remove the batteries when carrying the unit by hand or in the trunk of a car, thus avoiding wasteful battery consumption.

•Continuous operation of the unit causes the battery power to be consumed quicker than non-continuous operation.

•Operation of the unit in a cold place causes the battery power to be consumed more quickly than in a warm place.

Cautions

If batteries are used incorrectly, it may result in electrolyte leakage or they may explode.

•Make sure that the batteries are installed with the positive ª and negative · terminals positioned correctly.

•Do not mix new and old batteries together, or mix different types of batteries.

•Do not try to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.

•Remove the batteries when the unit is not to be used for an extended period of time.

•Remove the batteries when operating the unit on the household AC; though the power supply is automatically switched from the batteries to the household AC when the AC power cord is connected.

•If chemicals leaking from batteries come in contact with your skin, wash them off immediately with water. If chemicals leak on the surface of the unit, clean the unit completely.
