Using Batteries....................................................................................

1. Open the battery compartment cover

located on the instrument’s bottom panel.

2. Insert the six new alkaline batteries, being

careful to follow the polarity markings on

the side of the compartment.

3. Replace the compartment cover, making

sure that it locks ﬁrmly in place.

For battery operation the instrument requires six 1.5V

“AA” size, LR6 or equivalent batteries. (Alkaline batter-

ies are recommended.) When battery power becomes

too low for proper operation, the volume may be

reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other prob-

lems may occur. When this happens, make sure to

replace all batteries, following the precautions listed

below.

CAUTION

Use alkaline batteries for this instrument. Other types of batteries

(including rechargeable batteries) may have sudden drops of power

when battery power becomes low.

Make sure to install the batteries with the proper orientation, main-

taining the correct polarity (as shown). Incorrect battery installation

may result in heat, ﬁre and/or leaking of corrosive chemicals.

When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six

new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries. Do not use different

kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time.

If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time, remove the bat-

teries from it, in order to prevent possible ﬂuid leakage from the bat-

tery.

Tur ning the Power On

Press the [STANDBY/ON] switch to turn on the power.

The power indicator located to the left of the [STANDBY/ON] switch

lights up.

Pressing the switch again turns the power off.

CAUTION

When using a power adaptor, even when the power is off, a small amount of

electricity is still being consumed by the instrument. When you are not using

the instrument for a long time, make sure to unplug the AC power adaptor

from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument.

Never connect or disconnect the AC power adaptor when the

power is on and the batteries are installed. Doing so will turn

the power off.
