• Back up your data and recordings. The manufacturer cannot be held

responsible for any loss of data.

• Do not perform any maintenance operations that are not

described in this user manual. Do not disassemble the device into

its component parts to carry out repairs. The device may only be

repaired in authorised service centres.

1.1.1 Batteries and rechargeable batteries

• Only use AAA batteries with the device.

• Never try to recharge alkaline or non-rechargeable batteries.

• Remove batteries or rechargeable batteries from the device if it

will not be used for an extended period of time. The device can be

damaged by leaking batteries or rechargeable batteries.

1.1.3 Hearing protection

Observe the following guidelines when using headphones:

• Set the volume to a moderate level and do not use headphones to
