Precautions
• Operate the unit only on the power sources specified in “Specifications.” For battery operation,
use four LR6 (size AA) alkaline batteries. For AC operation, use only the supplied AC adaptor.
Do not use any other type of AC adaptor.
• Failure to use the supplied AC adaptor may cause the unit to malfunction, as
the polarity of the plugs of other manufacturers may be different.
• When operating the unit on batteries, it is recommended that you remove the AC adaptor from
the wall outlet and the DC IN 6 V jack. Disconnect the plug of the external power source before
operating the unit.
• Use the unit within a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C. If it is used in temperatures higher than
this range, numbers may appear in the display which have nothing to do with the frequency
being received. If it is used in temperatures lower than this range, the numbers displayed may
change very slowly. (These irregularities will disappear and there will be no damage to the unit
when the unit is used in the recommended temperature range again.)
• When listening with headphones, use stereo (3-pole) or monaural (2-pole) mini plug
headphones. Sound may not be heard with other types of headphones.
• Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical
shock. Never leave in a car parked in the sun.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, disconnect the AC adaptor and remove the
batteries, and have the unit checked by a qualified personnel before operating it any further.
• Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic
coding or spring-wound watches away from the unit to prevent possible damage from the
magnetism.
• To clean the casing, use a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type of solvent, such as alcohol or
benzine, which may damage the finish.
• Do not operate the unit with wet hands since it may cause a short circuit.
