OPERATION

Installing Batteries

Power is furnished with sixteen alkaline ‘D’ cell batteries. With

normal operation, each set will last for approximately 1,000 hours

of ON time. Install the batteries end-to-end with the negative

terminals toward the large spring. Orient them as shown in the

photo. If they are installed incorrectly, no damage will be done.

Low Battery Indication

It is unlikely battery voltage will drop significantly within a year of

listening time. However, if batteries do need replacement, the

front panel power light will dim and then extinguish. When it is

fully

extinguished, battery voltage is down about 15%.

Power Control

Move the momentary toggle switch to the right to turn on power. The green light will then illuminate

to show power is ON (if batteries are low it will dim, or become fully extinguished). The Hubble will

remain ON for one hour and then automatically power down. If you wish to add more operating time,

each time the toggle switch is moved to the right, another hour will be added. Yellow lights indicate

how many additional hours have been added. After initial setting, they also indicate how many hours

of ON time remain. Additional hours can

be added at any time. The yellow lights

will blink when there are fewer than 10

minutes of ON time remaining.

Move the momentary toggle switch to

left to remove ON time. Each time it is

moved, one hour will be subtracted from

the remaining .

operating time.
