on a level and stable surface.

— near a cassette deck (or close to a device that

gives off a magnetic field). This may interfere
with the sound.

could cause burns.

Loading the batteries

The batteries included with the unit are to check
initial operations; they may not last over a long
period. We recommend using alkaline batteries
that have a longer life.

or other excessively hot place, such as inside a
car or near a heater. This can cause batteries
to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire. It
can also reduce the life or performance of
batteries.

CAUTION

Incorrect use of batteries may result in such
hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the
following precautions:
! Never use new and old batteries together.
! Insert the plus and minus sides of the

batteries properly according to the marks in
the battery case.

different voltages. Do not use different
batteries together.
