touched, clean it immediately with a soft wipe (e.g. a cotton
swab) to avoid permanent damage.

POWER SUPPLY
Since this machine is compact and
portable, it can be used anywhere by
installing six AAA alkaline batteries.
When changing the batteries, always
replace all six at the same time.

and pull off the back cover. At the same time, the cassette
release lever on the back of the machine is lifted.
(2) Insert the batteries in the direction shown by the illustration
on the bottom of the battery compartment. The positive end
of the three batteries in the bottom row point toward the
right, while the positive end of the top three point in the
opposite direction.
Note: When replacing the batteries, insert the new ones within
three minutes of removing the old ones, otherwise any message
in the working area or Phrase Memory will be lost unless the
machine is plugged into an outlet with the AC adapter.
(3) Replace the back cover by inserting the tab on the bottom
end of the cover into the slot on the bottom end of the
machine, then securely fitting it into place. Lock the back
cover by pushing the release lever back into place.
