GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

•Use only Stanley STZ or Brother TZ tapes with this machine. Do not use any other tapes.

•Tapes are available in three different widths: 1/4” (6 mm), 3/8” (9 mm) and 1/2” (12 mm).

•Do not pull the tape since this may damage the tape cassette.

•Do not attempt to cut the tape while printing or feeding since this will damage the tape.

•Do not clean the machine with alcohol or other organic solvents. Use only a soft, dry cloth.

•Remove the batteries and disconnect the AC adapter if you do not intend to use the machine for an extended period of time.

Note: If power is disconnected for more than three minutes, all text shown in the display and any text files stored in the memory will be lost.

•Do not put any foreign objects into or anything on the machine.

•Do not expose the machine to high temperatures or high humidity. Never leave it on the dashboard or in the back of your car.

•Do not use the machine in dusty places, and keep it out of both direct sunlight and rain.

•Do not leave any rubber or vinyl on the machine for an extended period of time. Doing so may cause staining.

•After inserting a new tape cassette, advance the tape by holding down and

pressing once.

•Do not touch the print head mechanism. If the head is touched, clean it immediately with a soft wipe (e.g., a cotton swab) to avoid permanent damage.

•To avoid injuries, do not touch the cutter’s edge.

•Use only the AC adapter designed exclusively for this machine. Use of any other adapter will void the warranty.

Please contact a Brother dealer for details.

POWER SUPPLY

Batteries

Since this machine is compact and portable, it can be used anywhere by installing six

AAAalkaline batteries (LR03). When changing the batteries, always replace all six at the same time.

1Press in on the rough area at the top end of the machine and fold open the back cover.

2 If batteries are already installed, remove the tape cassette (if one is installed) by pulling it straight out, and then remove the batteries.

3Insert the batteries into the battery compartment with the positive end of the bottom three batteries pointing toward the top end of the machine, and the positive end of the top three batteries pointing in the opposite direction.

Note: When replacing the batteries, insert the new ones within three minutes of removing the old ones, otherwise all text shown in the display and any text files stored in the memory will be lost (unless the machine is plugged into an outlet with the AC adapter).

4Securely close the back cover, making sure that it snaps into place.

Optional AC adapter

The AC adapter allows you to use this machine wherever an electrical outlet is available. Use Brother’s AD-30 adapter for your new ST-1150/1150DX.

machine.

Note: If you are using a new tape cassette provided with a stopper, be sure to remove the stopper.

4Insert the tape cassette firmly into the compartment, making sure that the entire back of the cassette contacts the bottom of the compartment.

Note: When inserting a tape cassette, make sure that the inner ribbon does not catch on the corner of the metal guide.
