To set the voltage selector
Before attempting to use this unit, check the voltage
selector on the rear panel of this unit to determine if
the selected voltage is appropriate for the power
supply in your area. If you need to change the setting
to match your local power supply, use a screwdriver
to turn the arrow mark until it is pointed at the
appropriate voltage setting.

Loading batteries
1. Open the battery cover by pulling it toward you
while pressing down on the tabs marked by the
arrows.

CAUTIONS WHEN USING BATTERIES:
When batteries are used incorrectly, it may result in
the leakage of chemicals from the batteries or they
may explode. If chemicals from the batteries come in
contact with your skin, wash them off immediately
with water. If chemicals leak onto the unit, clean the
unit completely.
The following care should be taken;
• Check that the positive ª and negative · terminals of the
batteries are oriented correctly and load them as shown in
the diagram.
• Do not mix old and new batteries together, or mix
different types of batteries.
• Do not try to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
• Remove the batteries when the unit is not to be used for
an extended period of time.
