4 • Do not try to disassemble the AC adapter . • When the machine is not being used for a long period of time and it is not necessary to keep the text files stored in the memory , disconnect the AC adapter , and remove the bat- teries to prevent them from leaking and damaging the machine.
5 The AC adapter (model AD-30) allows you to use this machine wherever there is an electri- cal outlet. T o connect the optional AC adapter: 1 Insert the plug on the adapter cord into the connector marked DC IN 7.0V on the right side of the machine. 2 Insert the plug on the adapter into the near- est standard electrical outlet.
6 4 Insert the tape cassette firmly into the tape compartment, making sure that the entire back of the cassette touches the bottom of the compartment. ☞ When inserting the tape cassette, make sure that the inner ribbon does not catch on the corner of the metal guide.

8 Occasionally, specks of dust or dirt become attached to the machine’s print head and rollers. This is particularly likely when you are using the unit outdoors or in a very dusty environ- ment. If a section of the print head is covered with dust, a blank horizontal streak may appear through the label text.
