POWER SUPPLY
Batteries (optional)

English
Open the battery compartment of the set and insert 6 batteries,
type R20, UM-1 or D-cells (preferably alkaline).

Remove batteries if they are flat or if the set is not going to be

used for a long time.

Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be

disposed of properly.

Mains
1 Check whether the mains voltage as shown on the type plate
corresponds to your local mains voltage. If it does not, consult
A
your dealer or service organisation. The type plate is located
on the bottom of the set.

2 If the set is equipped with a VOLTAGE selector A, set this

selector to the local mains voltage.

3 Connect the mains cable to the AC MAINS socket and the wall
socket. This switches on the mains supply. The mains cable is
inside the battery compartment.

The battery supply will be switched off when the set is connected
to the mains. To change over to battery supply, pull out the plug
from the unit’s AC MAINS socket.

To disconnect the set from the mains completely, remove the

mains plug from the wall socket.

For users in the U.K.: please follow the instructions on page 2.

Environmental information
All redundant packing material has been omitted. We have done our utmost to make the
packaging easily separable into three mono materials: cardboard (box), polystyrene foam (buffer)
and polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).
Your set consists of materials which can be recycled if disassembled by a specialized company.
Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packing materials, exhausted
batteries and old equipment.
