NOTE: Standby central position allows the unit to transmit without audio. This option is important to prevent interference in the receiver due to the absence of a radio transmitting signal. It is, therefore, suggested to ALWAYS use this standby position when you temporarily don’t sing or play but the wireless microphone is connected to an audio system
(e.g. during a pause in a show). You can move the switch to OFF position (all down) only when you are sure that the sound system volume is low.
11. Power LED: It briey lights up when the transmitter is on. In case of battery low,
it keeps on lighting, warning that you need to replace the batteries as soon as possible.
