Power Sources
This unit is designed to operate on 8 “C” batteries, not included, or on normal 120V 60Hz
AC house current. Operating this unit from any other power source may cause damage
to the unit, and such damage is not covered by your warranty.
AC Operation
Connect the small end of the AC Power Cord to the AC socket on the back cabinet, then
insert the plug in any convenient household 120V 60Hz AC outlet.
NOTE: This unit has a polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow
blade. This plug will only fit into a matching polarized AC outlet. This is a safety
feature to reduce the possibility of electric shock.
If this plug will not fit in your AC outlet, you
probably have an outdated non-polarized outlet.
You should have your outdated outlet changed
by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do not file
the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to
make the plug fit into your outlet. This defeats the
safety feature and could expose you to electric
shock.
