Power Supply

Whenever convenient, use the mains supply cord if you want to
conserve battery life. Make sure you remove the plug from the
set and wall outlet before inserting batteries.
Batteries (not included)
1 Open the battery compartment and insert six batteries, type R-
14, UM-2 or C-cells, (preferably alkaline) with the correct
polarity as indicated by the "+" and "–" symbols inside the
compartment. (See 1)
2 Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are
firmly and correctly in place. The set is now ready to operate.
Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be
disposed of properly.
Incorrect use of batteries can cause
electrolyte leakage and will corrode the
compartment or cause the batteries to burst:
• Do not mix battery types: e.g. alkaline with carbon zinc. Only use
batteries of the same type for the set.
• When inserting new batteries, do not try to mix old batteries
with the new ones.
• Remove the batteries if the set is not to be used for a long time.

the wall socket. The mains lead is now connected and ready for
use.
