Precautions

• Operate the unit only on the power sources specified

in “Specifications”. For battery operation, use two
LR6 (size AA) alkaline batteries. For AC operation,
use only the supplied AC power adaptor. Do not use
any other type of AC power adaptor.

• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power

source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

• Disconnect the AC power adaptor from the wall

outlet when the unit is not to be used for a long
period of time.

• Use the unit within a temperature range of 0°C to

40°C (32°F to 104°F). If it is used in temperatures
higher than this range, numbers may appear in the
display which have nothing to do with the frequency
being received. If it is used in temperatures lower
than this range, the numbers displayed may change
very slowly. (These irregularities will disappear and
there will be no damage to the unit when the unit is
used in the recommended temperature range.)

• The nameplate indicating operating voltage, etc. is

located on the rear exterior.

• Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, direct

sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical shock.
Never leave in a car parked in the sun.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit,

disconnect the AC power adaptor and remove the
batteries, and have the unit checked by a qualified
personnel before operating it any further.

• In vehicles or buildings, radio reception may be

difficult or noisy. Try listening near a window.

• This product is not designed to be splash-resistant,

so you should take care to use the unit when raining,
snowing or in a water-splash place.

• To clean the casing, use a soft cloth dampened with

a mild detergent solution.
