IMPORTANT: If the Console has been
exposed to cold temperatures, allow it to

use only a manufacturer-supplied AC
adapter. Remove the battery cover, remove the
batteries, and plug one end of the AC adapter
into the jack inside the battery compartment on
the console; plug the other end into an outlet
installed in accordance with all local codes and
