OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT: If Alkaline (non­rechargeable) batteries are being
installed, slide the battery selection
switch in the battery compartment to
the “Alkaline” position. See FIG. A
below. If installing NiMH (or recharge­able) batteries, slide the battery selec­tion switch to the “NiMH” position.

1. Install AA batteries: Open the battery
compartment by pressing and lifting
the tab on the back of the transmitter
with your finger. To remove depleted
batteries, pull up on the fabric strip.

Press the batteries into place over the
fabric strip. Be sure to observe proper
polarity (+/-). Damage due to
improper battery installation may

2. Plug the microphone cord (sold separate­ly) into the “Mic Jack” on top of the
transmitter (FIG. B).

3. Optionally, plug in a desired audio
source such as a CD or MP3 player
using the “Auxiliary Input” jack (WCA
087 stereo auxiliary input cable includ­ed). If mic and auxiliary sources are
used together, the audio will be mixed.
If only auxiliary source is desired, the
mic can be muted. Do not remove the

mic from the “Mic Jack” as the cable
is also the transmitting antenna!

4. Turn the unit on: press and hold the
“ON/OFF/MUTE” button for three sec­onds. The “Power On” indicator should
illuminate green.

5. Select the desired operating frequency.
Use the “Channel Selector” knob to
select any of the 16 available channels
on 72-76 MHz. Refer to the channel
selection chart, FIG C.

Make sure the receiver being used is
operating on the same frequency as
the T36 transmitter!
