MR-8mkII Owner’s Manual (Preparation)
The MR-8mkII can run on the supplied AC adaptor (Model AD-12A) or alkaline batteries. When
preparing power supply, make sure that the MR-8mkII [POWER] switch is set to off.
The battery compartment is located on the bot-
tom of the MR-8mkII. Install batteries correctly
by following the procedure below.
<Note>: No battery is supplied with the MR-8mkII.
Purchase 6 size AA alkaline batteries. Do not use
manganese batteries.
1) Place the MR-8mkII upside-down on a soft
surface (such as on a soft cloth).
2) Remove the battery compartment cover on the
bottom by pushing the tab in the direction of the
arrow in the figure below and lifting up the cover.
<Notes on batteries>
* Do not leave exhausted batteries in the battery
compartment. Old batteries may leak caustic
chemicals, which causes trouble of the unit.
We recommend removing batteries even if they
are new when you do not use the MR-8mkII for
a long period of time.
* Do not mix old and new batteries together.
3) Install batteries as shown below.
Make sure to install batteries in the correct
direction.
4) Place back the battery compartment cover to the
original position.
