Notes on batteries
Incorrect battery usage may lead to
leakage of battery fluid or bursting
batteries. To prevent such accidents,
observe the following precautions:
• Install the + and – poles of the batteries
correctly.
• Do not install new and used batteries
or different kinds of batteries together.
• Do not try to recharge dry batteries.
• When the recorder is not to be used for
a long time, be sure to remove the
batteries.
• If a battery leak should develop,
carefully and thoroughly wipe away
battery fluid from the battery
compartment before inserting new
ones.
Note on mechanical noise
The recorder gives off mechanical noise
while operating, which is caused by the
power-saving system of the recorder and
it is not a problem.
To protect a recorded MD
To record-protect an MD, slide open the
tab at the side of the MD. In this position,
the MD cannot be recorded. To record
again, slide the tab back so the tab is
visible.
