AC Plug
AC Outlet

NOTE:

This unit has a polarized AC plug with one

wide blade and one narrow blade. This plug

will only fit into a matching polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature to reduce

the possibility of electric shock. If this plug will not fit in your AC outlet, you probably

have an outdated non-polarized outlet. You

should have your outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to make the plug fit into your outlet. This defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.

Battery Operation

1.) Remove the battery compartment door on the back of the cabinet by pressing down on the two tabs directly below the “ ” marks.

2.) Insert 8 pcs “C” size batteries into the battery compartment according to the polarity diagram engraved inside the compartment. If the batteries are inserted incorrectly the unit will not work.

3.) Replace the battery compartment door.

NOTE: In order to operate the unit on battery power the AC cord must be disconnected from the AC socket on the back cabinet.
