ERR Message
! When “ERR” appears in the display it indicates
that an operational error has occurred. Please refer to the following codes to diagnose which error you are experiencing.
ERR no01 EEPROM is not being programmed or
internal data error.
ERR no02 For testing only.
ERR no03 The frequency you want to program is
above the switching bandwidth of the transmitter. Use a receiver with an appropriate frequency group. (At this time the microphone is still operating and the frequency remains unchanged. To clear the displayed "ERR" message, switch the handheld transmitter off and on again.)
ERR no04 The frequency you want to program is
below the switching bandwidth of the transmitter. Use a receiver with an appropriate frequency group. (At this time the microphone is still operating and the frequency remains unchanged. To clear the displayed “ERR” message, switch the handheld transmitter off and on again.)
! “Group” & “Channel” : When both the group
and channel numbers are displayed, it means that you are using the pre-programmed frequency of the receiver.
Setting MUTE
! Press MUTE button to enter MUTE mode.
! Under MUTE mode, press MUTE button to exit

Battery Removal and Installation
! Pushing down both snap locks on the sides to
open battery compartment cover. Take out the two batteries. (Figure 3)
! Insert one charged 18500 rechargeable battery
into the battery compartment according to the correct polarity (- and +) as shown in (Figure 4) . Then close the battery compartment cover tightly.
(Figure 4)(Figure 3)
Caution
Note: Transmitter cannot be powered on with
charged battery.
Method 1:
a. Ensure battery is inserted correctly with + top
side.
b. If battery is inserted correctly it could be due
to self battery protection mechanism. Insert the transmitter into the charger to re-charge for 10-20 seconds to wake-up the battery. It should work.
c. If charger cannot be used, reverse the battery
insertion for 10-20 seconds, wake up the battery with correct polarity. It should work.
Method 2:
a. Power off the transmitter before open the
hinged cover. Press battery protection circuitry reset button once to wake-up battery. Power on the transmitter.

Disposal
2005 -08- 13
19
Dispose of any unusable devices or batteries responsibly and in accordance with any applicable regulations.
Disposing of used batteries with domestic waste is to be avoided!
Batteries / NiCad cells often contain heavy metals such as cadmium(Cd), mercury(Hg) and lead(Pb) that makes them unsuitable for disposal with domestic waste. You may return spent batteries/ accumulators free of charge to recycling centres or anywhere else batteries/accumulators are sold.
By doing so, you contribute to the conservation of our environment!
