Powering the Recorder

Battery Installation
EN
1. Open hinged battery door by pressing down just above the arrow,
sliding it as indicated and lifting up. Note that to avoid damage to the
battery door, do not attempt to force door beyond its normal
stopping point.
2. Insert 2 "AA" alkaline batteries into the battery compartment. Be sure
each battery is installed as shown on the battery diagram in the
battery compartment.
3. Close the battery door by lowering and sliding door into the closed
position.
NOTE: If the recording sounds distorted, or if the tape moves very slowly
or not at all, check the batteries, try AC power or a fresh set of batteries
before seeking service (See Record/Battery Indicator).
AC/DC Converter (not included)
To save batteries you can use the AC Converter to operate your recorder.
The cord plugs into the DC 3V jack on the recorder and the AC end plugs
into a household outlet. When the AC/DC Converter is used, batteries are
automatically disconnected.
Record/ Battery Indicator
• Recording Indicator—Light will remain on when in continuous record
mode.
• Battery Condition Indicator—When in the record mode, the brightness
level of the light indicates battery condition. When the indicator is
dim or does not light, batteries are weak and need replacing. Note
that the optional AC/DC Converter (5-1751) must be disconnected
from DC 3V jack to check batteries.
