SUPPLY
Battery
The recorder operates on fi ve 1.5 V torch batteries measuring ab-
out 2" (50 mm) in length and 1" (25 mm) in diameter (HP11 type,
R14 or C cells). It is best to use metal cased high-power batteries;
these last longest and reduce the danger of the recorder being
damaged due to battery leakage.
Batteries remaining under load, exhausted batteries and batteries
unused for a lengthy period may eventually start to leak. Always
switch off the recorder after use, therefore, by pressing the stop
key ® and remove the batteries if exhausted or if the recorder is
not to be used again for a long time. With the recorder connected
to the mains, the batteries need not be removed unless the recor-
der is to be powered only from the mains over a lengthy period.
Inserting the batteries
® With your thumb on the arrow, press the cover on the back of
the recorder as far to the rear as possible and lift it off (Fig. 2).
• Insert the batteries as shown by the scheme in the battery com-
partment (Fig. 3) and replace the cover by fitting the studs into the
recesses of the battery compartment and pushing it to the front.
Battery life
If the recorder is in use for about one hour per day (and depend-
ing to some extent on the playback volume) a set of fresh batteries
will last approximately eighteen hours.
Checking the battery voltage
• Before making a recording, check that the pointer of the indica-
tor ® deflects into the green area (Fig. 4) when the start key ® is
depressed. If the pointer remains in the red area, the batteries are
no longer fi t for use and must be replaced.
• Having completed this check, press the stop key ®.
