„ Using Battery Power, „ AC adapter | Akai Ewi4000s instruction

POWER

Before operating the EWI4000s, please be careful of the following:

yDo not bite the MOUTHPIECE too hard as this may damage the vibrato sensor. Use the mouthpiece cover after using or while carrying the EWI4000s.

yAlways touch the GROUNDING PLATE and OCTAVE SHIFT ROLLERS when playing and editing sounds. Each of touch sensors uses the performer’s body as the ground.

yKeep the MOUTHPIECE clean before, during, and after using the EWI4000s. You can clean its outer surface with disinfectant alcohol.

Using Battery Power

yPlease use four (4) AA batteries (alkaline or rechargeable) only. Be sure to install them with their poles (+/–) at the proper ends. Refer to the drawing for correct battery installation.

ySelect “BATT” on the POWER SWITCH when using batteries. To prolong battery life, select the “OFF” position on the Power Switch when you’re finished playing.

yWhen the battery power is low, an LED on the PROGRAM / DATA DISPLAY will start blinking at which point you should change the batteries.

yRemove the batteries when you are not going to be using your EWI4000s for an extended period time. Don’t use different types of batteries at the same time.

AC adapter

You can use an AC adapter (MP-9) instead of batteries. Connect adapter to the DC IN jack of the EWI4000s and select DC on the Power Switch.
