PREPARATION
CONNECTING POWER
Using Batteries
You can power your recorder with two AA bat-
teries (not supplied). For the best perfor-
mance and longest life, we recommend
RadioShack alkaline batteries.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly;
do not bury or burn them.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required
size and recommended type.
• Never leave dead or weak batteries in the
Micro-40. Batteries can leak chemicals
that can destroy electronic circuits.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, differ-
ent types of batteries (standard, alkaline,
or rechargeable), or rechargeable batter-
ies of different capacities.
