Precautions
• Operate the unit only on 4.5 V DC. For battery operation, use three size AA (R6) batteries. For AC
operation, use only the recommended AC power adaptor.
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to a wall outlet,
even if the unit itself has been turned off.
• The nameplate indicating operating voltage, etc. is located on the bottom exterior.
• Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical shock.
Never leave in a car parked under the sun.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, disconnect the AC power adaptor and remove the
batteries, and have the unit checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. Make sure
that no liquid or foreign material enters the DC IN 4.5 V jack of the unit. This may lead to the malfunc-
tion of the unit.
• In vehicles or buildings, radio reception may be difficult or subject to interference. Try listening near a
window.
• Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep away personal credit cards using magnetic coding or
spring-wound watches from the unit to prevent possible damage from the magnet.
• When the casing becomes soiled, clean it with a soft dry cloth moistened with mild detergent solution.
Never use abrasive cleansers or chemical solvents, as they may deform the casing.
