Use of batteries
•Align the poles (+ and –) properly when inserting the batteries.
•Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries.
•Do not recharge ordinary dry cell batteries.
•Do not heat or disassemble the batteries. Do not allow them to contact flame or water.
•If the unit is not going to be used for a long time or if the unit is to be powered exclusively by AC power, remove the batteries and store them in a cool, dark place.
•Do not keep together with metallic objects such as necklaces.
•Do not use rechargeable type batteries.
•Do not use batteries if the covering has been peeled off.
Mishandling of batteries can damage other items, cause damage to the unit, and may cause a fire through short-circuiting or electrolyte leakage. If electrolyte leaks from the batteries, consult your dealer.
Wash thoroughly with water if electrolyte comes in contact with any part of your body.
Listening caution
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.
This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
We recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
•Start your volume control at a low setting.
•Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

When to change the batteries
When the battery indicator begins flashing, replace all 6 of the batteries. It is also a good idea to replace all the batteries before recording.
Note
Before playing starts the battery indicator may flash although the batteries are not drained. It appears correctly once you start play.
Memory back-up
Insert batteries (not included) to save the current time, timer settings and radio stations you have set. If memory batteries are not used, memory items are erased in the following situations:
•Power failures,
•The AC power supply cord is disconnected from the power outlet,
•The AC power supply cord is connected to the
unit while the unit is being powered by batteries. These batteries do not power the unit.
(R6/LR6, AA, UM-3)
When to change the batteries
The batteries last about a year.
Connect the unit to AC power before replacing the batteries.
Before connecting or disconnecting the AC power supply cord, press [TAPE/OFF] and stop the tape to turn the unit off. The memory batteries are worn out faster if the cord is disconnected with the power still on.
