POWER SOURCES

This unit is designed to operate on 8 pcs “C” batteries, not included, or on normal
120V 60Hz AC house current. Operating this unit from any other power source

NOTE: This unit has a polarized AC plug

AC Outlet

110V 230V

with one wide blade and one narrow blade.
This plug will only fit into a matching
polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature
to reduce the possibility of electric shock.
If this plug will not fit in your AC outlet, you
probably have an outdated non-polarized
outlet. You should have your outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed
electrician. Do not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to make the
plug fit into your outlet. This defeats the safety feature and could expose you to
electric shock.

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE

This model is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from
moving when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating
rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your
furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives,
or c leaning sprays may cause the rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a
rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly
recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware
stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the
bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.
