INSTALL BATTERIES
Battery Power
1. The amp uses 10 " D " size Alkaline batteries (not included); or
the optional rechargeable AmpliVox NiCad Battery Pack (S-1465)
and (S1460) AC adapter -purchase separately (Fig 3).
2. The removable battery door on the back of the amp is
designed to stay closed until you need to change the batteries.
Slip a finger nail under it and slide it out. (Fig 1)
3. Lift the battery holder out. The plastic dividers between the
batteries help prevent battery corrosion. (Fig 2)
4. Install 10 fresh Alkaline " D" size batteries. Be sure to observe
the polarity when putting batteries in the battery compartment.
The negative (flat) ends go against the springs. (Fig 2) Carefully
replace battery holder. Batteries should look like they are
standing up.
Note: The battery holder cable comes from the factory already
plugged into the connector. If it comes loose, push it in securely.
(Turn the plug over if it doesn’t fit; it only fits one way.)
5. Slide door back into place.
6. If using the S-1465 NiCad Battery Pack (Fig 3), replace battery
holder with the battery pack. Insert the battery pack plug into the connector where the battery holder was plugged
into. Plug AC Adapter/ Recharger power supply (S1460) into the “DC IN” jack on front panel of the amp. Plug into a
working electrical outlet. Charge 24 hours for full charge before using.

PROBLEM SOLVING:
HOWLBACK is the howl or screech often heard in sound reinforcement systems. It is caused by sound from the
loudspeaker returning to the microphone. AmpliVox systems utilize proven acoustical principles to minimize this;
however, there is no way to completely eliminate howl back under conditions of high amplification. If howl back
occurs, check the following:
•User’s hand covering the head of the microphone. [Hold microphone under head slots.] Sound can easily re-
enter microphone.
•Keep loudspeaker turned toward audience. Note: sound can be reflected from a hard surface back through
the microphone. [Turn speaker.]
•User holding microphone in a reflecting position. [Turn microphone.]
•Volume setting too high. [Reduce microphone channel volume; compensate by speaking louder or closer to
the microphone.]
NO SOUND
Make sure amplifier POWER switch is turned on and red LED is lit. If switch is on and LED is not lit, check to see that
batteries are properly connected and at full charge. If using optional power adapter, check to see that front panel
connector is properly seated, and verify that the power source is live.
