Instructions for Personal Digital Talking Memo – LIV 091 349 0000
Getting to know your new recorder:
This recorder retains 2 messages, each of which can be 10 seconds
long.
The recorder is approximately the size of a credit card, although it is
much thicker in cross-section. The front of the recorder has a textured
speaker grille in the lower right corner, and 2 small sliding switches at
the top that are 6mm from the top edge and approximately 15mm in
from each side. The battery compartment lid is a vertical panel on the
back, measuring 52mm by 18mm.
Hold the recorder so that the two raised function buttons on the front
are at the top of the unit and the textured speaker grille is in the lower
right corner. In the top, far right hand corner of the unit,
approximately 8mm from both the top and side, is a small, red LED
indicator light that is recessed and lights up when a message is
recording or playing.
Directly to the left of the recessed light, there is a two-way
PLAY/RECORD slide switch, that when positioned to the far right, is
used to record a message and when positioned to the far left is used
to play a message.
To the left of the play/record sliding switch there is a CHANNEL
SELECTOR switch marked CH1/CH2 that switches between
recording channels 1 and 2 while recording or in playback mode.
Fifteen millimeters directly below the play and record slide switch, you
will find a small hole which acts as the unit’s microphone.
Twenty millimeters to the right of the microphone, on the right-hand
edge of the recorder, is the record/playback button. It is 15mm high
and flat on its outer edge; its left edge is semi-circular. You record or
play back a message by pushing this button in towards the centre of
the unit. This switch’s function depends on how the PLAY/REC button is
positioned.
The recorder’s speaker grille is situated in the lower, right corner when
viewed from the front with the sliding function buttons at the top.
Recording a message:
To record a message, move the PLAY/RECORD slide switch to the
right side. This switch is located towards the top right hand corner of
the unit, 5mm to the left of the round, recessed LED light. Select
Channel 1 by sliding to the left the selector switch marked CH1/CH2
switch, which is located 5mm to the left of the PLAY/REC switch.
Press and hold down the record/playback button push button on
the right edge of the unit and speak into the unit, holding it
approximately three inches away from your mouth. You have 10
seconds of recording time. After finishing the recording, release the
push button. To make another 10 second message without erasing
the previous message on Channel 1, slide the CH1/CH2 selector switch
to the right and follow the same recording process.
The red LED indicator light located to the right of the PLAY/RECORD
slide switch will illuminate while you are recording your message and
will turn off when you are finished or when the recording time limit has
been exceeded.
Listening to your recorded message:
To listen to your recorded message, move the PLAY/RECORD slide
switch located at the right hand corner of the unit to the left. Press
and hold down the record/playback push button located at the top,
right edge of the unit. The recorded message will then play back. You
can stop the playback at any time by releasing the push button.
Erasing a message:
To replace an existing message, select either Channel 1 or 2 and move
to the right the PLAY/RECORD slide switch located at the top right
hand corner of the unit. Press the record/playback button on the
side once.
To create a new message have the PLAY/RECORD slide switch in the
right position and follow the “Recording message” section noted
above.
Inserting/Replacing Batteries:
The unit is fitted with 2 AG13 batteries. The recorder’s sound level will
drop if the batteries need replacement.
Position the digital recording unit such that the raised function
buttons are facing you and at the top of the unit. Turn the unit over
so that the smooth rear side of the unit is facing you. The rectangular
battery compartment lid is located down the right edge of the unit,
equidistant from the top and bottom edges. It has a tactile area
marked “OPEN” and a corresponding triangle in the centre of the lid to
indicate the direction of opening.
Slide the cover to the right to open the battery compartment; you may
need to start the lid moving with your thumbnail. Keep the lid safely
nearby. One of the batteries is at the top of the compartment and the
other is at the bottom end. Remove the existing AG13-type batteries
and insert 2 new batteries into their sockets, ensuring that the positive
or flat ends of the batteries are facing upwards when they are
inserted.
After inserting the new batteries, replace the back cover by sliding the
tab on its leading edge back into the battery compartment until the lid
clicks into place.
