BATTERY OPERATION AND INSTALLATION

The SATELLIT 800 MILLENNIUM receiver is designed to operate from either the supplied AC ADAPTER or from six "D" cell batteries (not supplied). NOTE: Check the batteries periodically for leakage. IF UNIT IS TO

BE STORED OR OTHERWISE NOT USED FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, REMOVE THE BAT TERIES TO PREVENT CORROSION AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE RECEIVER.

Battery Installation

(1)Position receiver with the back panel towards you.

(2)Remove battery access cover by pressing on the corrugated area in the center of the cover and sliding it to your left as far as it will go. Then gently pull it straight out from the rear panel.

(3)Place 6 "D" cell alkaline type batteries into holder. Make sure the batteries are in the proper polarity posi tion as illustrated in Figure 1.

(4)Replace access cover by placing it over the left side of the opening and then sliding it to the right.

NOTE:

The SATELLIT 800 MILLENNIUM does not rely on the batteries for retention of memory channels. To ensure that clocks and timers are maintained following the loss of AC power or battery removal, the receiver must first be connected to a source of AC power or have batteries installed for a minimum of 10 minutes. If power is lost after this minimum 'charge' time, clocks and timer settings are maintained for a time period of approxi mately 30 minutes.
