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.
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.
– Batteries with the same shape may have different
voltages. Do not use different batteries together.
– When disposing of used batteries, please comply
with governmental regulations or environmental
public instruction’s rules that apply in your country
or area.
– Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight 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
The
STANDBY/ON switch on this unit will not
completely shut off all power from the AC outlet.
Since the power cord serves as the main disconnect
device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from the
AC outlet to shut down all power. Therefore, make
sure the unit has been installed so that the power
cord can be easily unplugged from the AC outlet in
case of an accident. To avoid fire hazard, the power
cord should also be unplugged from the AC outlet
when left unused for a long period of time (for
example, when on vacation).
