Precautions
•Operate the unit only on 6V DC with four R6 (size AA) batteries.
For AC operation, use the AC power adaptor recommended for this unit.
Do not use any other type.
For car battery operation, use the car battery cord recommended for this
unit. Do not use any other type.
•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 fumed off.
• Disconnect the AC power adaptor from the wall outlet when the unit is
not to be used for a long period of time.
•The name plate indicating operating voltage, etc., is located at the rear of
the unit.
• Use the unit within a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). If
it is used in temperatures outside this range, an irregular display may
appear on the display window. If it is used in temperatures lower than
this range, the display may change very slowly. These irregularities will
disappear and there will be no damage to the unit when the unit is used
in its recommended temperature range.
• Do not leave the unit near heat sources, such as radiators or air ducts, or in
a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, moisture, rain, mechani­
cal vibration or shock.
•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, remove the batteries,
and have the unit checked by qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
•Since a strong magnet is used for the speaker, keep personal credit cards
using magnetic coding or spring-wound watches away from the unit to
prevent them from possible damage caused by the magnet.
• When the casing becomes soiled, clean it with a soft dry cloth dampened
with mild detergent solution. Never use abrasive cleansers or chemical
solvents, as they may mar the casing.
•When there is lightning and you are using an external antenira, immedi­
ately disconnect the AC power adaptor (if connected) from the wall
outlet. Never touch the antenna wire when there is a lightning storm.
• Never connect a ground wire to a gas pipe.
•Reception of 3.6 MHz may be difficult because of internal spurious
signals generated by the built-in oscilators.
•In vehicles or buildings, radio reception may be difficult or noisy. Try
listening near a window.
