BATTERY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO YOUR
SET, READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1. Use only the type and size of batteries mentioned in the operating instructions
manual (batteries are not included with this set, please buy the proper batteries).
2. Do not dispose the batteries into a fire. The cells may explode. Check with local
codes for possible special disposal instructions.
3. Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is corrosive and may
cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if swallowed.
4. Be careful when handling batteries in order not to short the battery with conducting
materials such as rings, bracelets and keys. The battery or conductor may over
heat and cause burns.
5. Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. The batteries may leak
corrosive electrolyte or explode.
6. Do not attempt to rejuvenate the batteries identified for use with this product by
heating them. Sudden release of the battery electrolyte may cause burns or
irritation to eyes or skin.
7. All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Mixing fresh and discharged
batteries could increase internal cell pressure and rupture the batteries.
8. When inserting batteries into this product, the proper polarity (
and
) or
direction must be observed. Reverse insertion of some or all of the batteries may
result in battery electrolyte leakage or explosion.
9. Remove the batteries from this product if the product will not be used for a long
period of time (several months or more) since during the period the batteries could
leak, damaging the product.
10. Discard weak or dead batteries as soon as possible since they are more likely to
leak in the product. Batteries should be replaced (depending on the product) when
the display gets dim or if the Low Battery Indicator shows or if the sound gets
distorted.
11. Do not store this product in high temperature areas. Batteries that are stored in a
freezer or refrigerator for the purpose of extending shelf life should be protected
from condensation during storage and defrosting. Batteries should be stabilized at
room temperature prior to use after cold storage.
12. If this product does not operate normally, see TROUBLE SHOOTING in this
instruction manual. If you cant resolve the problem, or if the product is damaged, refer to the
LENOXX WARRANTY INFORMATION. Opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when
the appliance is subsequently used.
13. If liquid leaks from the batteries, carefully wipe this liquid. Do not allow it to touch your skin,
and discard the leaking batteries.
14. Do not mix batteries (OLD and NEW or CARBON and ALKALINE, etc.).
15. The use of rechargeable batteries is not recommended for this set because their
voltage and life is lower than standard batteries.
16. Installation of batteries should be done by an adult only.

NOTE 1: When tuning to TV band stations, many times a loud
buzzing will be heard, which results from the video portion
of the TV signal. This is normal for all TV band radios.
NOTE 2: TV band and Weather Band signals are weaker than
normal FM signals. Most TV band signals have a range
of only 50 miles (maximum) from the broadcast station.
NOTE 3: Some noise or 2 way radio conversations may be heard
on the TV band or Weather Band, this is normal and
results from the weaker signals of these broadcasts.
WB may not be received in all areas due to a lack of
transmission coverage for those areas or in some fringe
areas where TV signals can only be received by using

cleaners or anti-static spray intended
for vinyl LPs.
To record on a tape with its tab broken
off, cover the respective tab hole for
side A or B with adhesive tape.
Do not expose the CD to direct
sunlight or heat sources such as hot
air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked
in direct sunlight as there can be a
considerable rise in temperature inside
the car.
Use of a cassette with more than
90 minutes, such as C-120 (120

The extreme thinness of this tape
may damage this set.
Do not stick paper or stickers on the
CD, nor scratch the CD.
To reduce the chances of tape
jamming or tangling, you should check
that there are no loose layers of tape
visible through the cassette center
window. If any, tighten these loose
layers of tape using a pencil before
inserting the cassette into the set.
After playing, store the CD in its case.
If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints

2. Do not store tape for any length of
time in a hot, moist or dusty place.
Cleaning the Tape Heads
Wipe the heads, the pinch roller and
the capstan with a cleaning swab slightly
moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol
