LOADING THE CASSETTE

1.   Turn the supplied cassetteÆs hub with a pencil to take up any tape
     slack.

2.   Lift open the cassette compartment door.  Then load the cassette with
     its full reel to the right and its open edge toward the front of the
     TAD.

NOTES:  Replace the tape at least once a year, or more often if used
        heavily.  Your local Radio Shack store has replacement tapes of
        varying lengths.

        When the TAD is plugged into AC power, if the tape is broken or if
        the cassette is not inserted properly, the TAD beeps continuously,
        the LED lights, and Er appears on the display.  To stop the beep,
        unplug the adapter from AC power and then plug it back in.

CHOOSING A LOCATION

Choose a location for the TAD that is:

    Out of the way of normal activities

    Near a telephone jack

    Near an AC outlet

CONNECTING TO THE TELEPHONE LINE

The TAD comes with a modular plug installed on the end of the phone cable.
Connect the TAD directly to the phone line by plugging it into a standard
modular telephone jack.

If you do not have a modular telephone jack, you can:

    Update the wiring yourself.  Radio Shack stores sell the jacks and
    adapters necessary to convert from older wiring methods to modular
    wiring.

    Have the telephone company update the telephone wiring for you.  The
    telephone company will charge you for the jack installation.  They also
    will ask you for the USOC number of the jack to be installed.  This
    number is RJ11C.

NOTE:  The TAD has a modular telephone jack labeled PHONE in back.  You can
       connect a telephone with a modular plug to this jack.

CONNECTING THE AC ADAPTER

CAUTION:  You must use a Class II, 120V AC/9V AC adapter that delivers at
          least 500 milliamps, and its plug must correctly fit the TADÆs AC
          jack. The supplied adapter meets these requirements.  Using an
          adapter that does not meet these requirements could damage the
          TAD or the adapter.

1.   Plug the small end of the supplied AC adapter into the TADÆs AC jack.

2.   Plug the other end of the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
