tures, such as in strong direct sunlight, in

a sun-heated car, by the fire, or in front of

a stove.

• Do not touch the battery poles or con-

tacts inside the battery cover with dirty

hands. Otherwise poor contact or noise

may result. If dirty, wipe off with a dry soft

cloth.

The contacts inside the battery cover

tend to get dirty. Clean them regularly

(about once a month) with ethyl alcohol.

Do not use solvents, such as benzine or

thinner, or a metal polish. Otherwise the

contacts may become deformed or dis-

colored, or the brass plating may come

off.

• Do not use a deteriorated or short-circuit-

ed battery. A battery in this condition

may leak fluid, overheat and cause dam-

age.

• The product is not made to drip-proof

specification.

Do not use the product with the wet

hands in a place where it is directly

exposed to water.

• Do not cover the infrared emitter with

hands, clothes, or labels, etc. Otherwise

the sound will be blocked or interrupted.

• Do not swing the product around on the

neck strap. To prevent strangling, the

closure of the strap provided for hanging

the product around the neck is designed

to give way under pressure. If swung

around on the neck strap, the closure will

open and the product will fly away,

resulting in personal injury or damage to

the product.

• Maintain a distance of 50 cm {19-11/16"}

• Walls or people located between the

infrared wireless microphone and the

infrared sensor will block infrared radia-

tion, so that no sound will be heard.

• The product is high-precision adjusted;

exposing it to strong impact or dropping

it on the floor may change its characteris-

tics. Handle the product with due care.

Do not expose the product to shock or

impact as this will cause the audio output

of the infrared receiver to give off noise

on impact.

Product care

• Clean the power source with a dry cloth.

• Do not clean with volatile liquids such as

benzine and thinner.

• When using a chemical cloth for clean-

ing, observe the cautions provided with

that product.

Useful hints

• Noise prevention

Turn off the power of this product, and

turn down the volume of a powered

amplifier, mixer, etc. before replacing,

removing or inserting the battery, as this

might produce a large noise from these

devices.

• For a clear sound without noise content,

use the product at a distance of up to

8 m {26'} from the infrared sensor. When

you get a lot of noise, use the product as

close as possible to the infrared sensor,

within a range of 2 m to 8 m {7' - 26'}.

Using the product within a distance of

2 m {7'} from the infrared sensor may

cause crossover to unused channels and

interference.

• Volume control

When the volume control from this prod-

uct goes wrong, move closer to the

infrared sensor or change positions and

then try again to adjust the volume.

Preface

The product is a pendant type PLL infrared wireless microphone.

It can be used in combination with the following infrared products (hereinafter, receiver). (as of

June 2009)

U.S. and Canadian fields: Infrared Receiver (WX-LR100), Infrared Receiver/Amplifier (WX-

LA20, WX-LA50), Infrared Wireless Powered Speaker (WX-LP100)

European and Asian fields: Infrared Receiver (WX-LR100/A, WX-LR100/B), Infrared Receiver/

Amplifier (WX-LA20, WX-LA50), Infrared Wireless Powered Speaker (WX-LP100)

• The use of a PLL synthesized system allows selecting one out of four available frequencies

(1 of 4 channels).

• The transmitting channel is changed by operating a channel selector.

• The product can derive its power supply from a rechargeable battery (AA size), a dry cell

(AA/LR6 size) or a charger (option). (☞page 30)

• Connection of the charger (WX-LZ150) to this product allows our nickel metal hydride bat-

tery to be charged.

• Connecting an external microphone or any other external sound source to the product’s

microphone input terminal or external input terminal will allow you to transmit audio to the

receiver.

• The audio level (volume) output to the receiver can be adjusted on the microphone.

Caution about interception of transmission

This product is a wireless system using infrared, and the transmission and reception of audio

signals are possible within the range that the infrared can reach.

If any third party is within the range of the infrared, the audio signals can reach anywhere

unless there are obstacles (such as walls). Therefore, if there is no action taken to prevent

interception, malicious third parties may listen to content by intercepting the infrared

intentionally.

In order to handle this problem, you may set up infrared shielding materials such as shade cur-

tains to close the transmitting and receiving range to reduce the interception.

We would like you to fully understand the risks of using this product without taking precautions

for interception, and we recommend you take your own preventative measures.

If interception occurs due to negligence or the specifications of the infrared wireless, we shall

not take any responsibility for the damages that are caused thereby.

This function allows you to use an external microphone instead of the microphone opening of

this microphone. Connect an external microphone (for example, an electret condenser micro-

phone) to the microphone input terminal of the microphone, and transmit the audio to the

receiver.

1Turn off the power of the microphone.

2Using the ø3.5 mini-plug, connect the external microphone (for example, a commer-

cially available electret condenser microphone) to the microphone input terminal.

3Turn on the power of the microphone.

Important:

• Do not connect external devices (CD players or MD players) to the microphone input termi-

nal. Loud noises may damage your hearing. When an external device is mistakenly con-

nected, turn off the power of the microphone and the external device, disconnect the plug,

and connect the device to external input terminal.

Note:

• Once the ø3.5 mini-plug is plugged into the microphone input terminal, priority is given to

this audio transmission from an external microphone and the audio from the microphone

opening will not be transmitted.

• The microphone input terminal of the microphone is a monaural terminal. If a stereo exter-

nal microphone is plugged into the microphone input terminal, either the right or the left

channel audio will be transmitted.

• When fine-tuning the volume of external microphone using this microphone, select [OWN]

by pressing the selector button. For fine tuning, refer to "Adjusting the volume" (☞page 16,

17).

• Use a unidirectional microphone. The use of an omnidirectional microphone may cause

feedback.

• In addition to this manual, refer to the operating instructions of the external microphone to

be connected.
