Battery compartment

Install batteries here if you want to operate the R-44 on battery power.

The orientation of the batteries is shown inside the battery compartment.

Be sure to observe the correct polarity when installing the batteries.

If using the AC adaptor, you do not need to install batteries.

When the R-44 has sufficiently charged batteries, the power source automatically switches between battery

and external power when the AC adaptor jack is connected or disconnected.

For details, refer to “Installing batteries and turning on the power” (p. 25).
