    QUICK OPERATING GUIDE Since the FX3 is shipped from the factory with no batteries installed, the first step is to install 8 “AA” batteries. These may be alkaline or rechargeable types. We strongly recommend high capacity NiMH rechargeable batteries over alkaline types for maximum performance, particularly when using loud volume levels.
