The
LEVEL/BATTERY
meter
shows
the
condition
of
the batteries
whenever
you
press
PLAY
button.
As
long
as
the
pointer
stays
in
the
black
area,
the batteries
are
OK.
If
the
pointer
falls
into
the
green
area,
replace
the
batteries.

Never
leave weak

dead
batteries
in
your
unit
—
they
may
leak,
causing
permanent
damage.
