About the power

You can use the MR-8 either with the supplied AC adaptor (Model AD-12A) or alkaline
batteries (AA-type x 6, not supplied with the MR-8). When preparing the power source,
make sure that the [POWER] switch of the MR-8 is set to off.

See the illustration below.
Connect the plug of the supplied AC adaptor to
the [DC IN] jack firmly, then connect the AC adap-
tor to the AC main outlet. Make sure that the
voltage of your AC outlet matches the supplied
AC adaptor's specification.

The battery compartment is located at the bot-
tom of the MR-8.
To insert batteries, follow the procedure below.

<Important!>

No battery is supplied with the unit.

Purchase AA-type alkaline batteries. Do not use
manganese batteries.

1. Put the MR-8 with the bottom panel up on soft

material such as cloth.

2. Push the tab on the battery compartment cover to

the direction shown by arrow in the illustration
below, and remove the cover.

3. Insert six batteries in the right direction as shown

below.

4. Place the compartment cover to the original

position.

<Notes for changing batteries>

• Do not leave the exhausted batteries in the bat-
tery compartment.
• When batteries are exhausted, remove them from
the battery compartment. If you leave them, chemi-
cal liquid in the batteries may leak out and damage
the unit. If you do not use the unit with batteries for
a long time, remove the batteries even though they
are new.
• Never mix old and new batteries.

The first time you turn on the power, the LCD
display shows the startup screen, followed by the
screen below showing that the demo song is
loaded. See page 27 for details about screens.

When the AC adaptor is connected while batter-
ies are installed, the power is supplied to the MR-
8 from the AC adaptor. If the AC adaptor is un-
plugged, the batteries supply the power to the
MR-8.
