POWER SUPPLY
Whenever convenient, use the mains supply if you want to conserve
battery life. Make sure you remove the mains plug from the set and wall
socket before inserting batteries.
Batteries (optional)
1. Open the battery compartment and insert as shown six batteries,
type R20, or D-cells.
2. Replace the compartment door, making sure the batteries are firmly
and correctly in place.
3. Remove the batteries if exhausted or if they will not be used again for
a long period.
– The incorrect use of batteries can cause electrolyte leakage and will
corrode the compartment or cause the batteries to burst. Therefore:
– Do not mix battery types, e.g. alkaline with zinc carbonate.
– When inserting new batteries, replace all batteries at the same time.
Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be
disposed of properly
Note:
The battery supply is switched off when the set is connected to
the mains.
1. Check if the mains voltage as shown on the type plate (on the bottom
of the set) corresponds to your local mains voltage. If it does not, con-
sult your dealer or service organisation.
2. If your set is equipped with a voltage selector, set it to the local mains
voltage.
3. Connect the mains lead to the MAINS socket and the wall socket.
– The set is now ready to use.
4. To switch off the mains supply completely, pull the mains plug out of
the wall socket.
– Disconnect the mains lead when you change over to battery supply, or
to protect the set during heavy thunderstorms.
Environmental information
All redundant packaging material has been omitted. We have done our utmost to make the packaging
easily separable into three mono materials: cardboard (box), expandable polystyrene (buffer) and
polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).
Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if dissassembled by a specialized
company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging
materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.
