About Batteries
If you’re operating the Lucina AX-09 on batteries, you’ll need eight Ni-MH AA rechargeable batteries. The battery
life will di er depending on the conditions of use, but for continuous usage, it is approximately 4 hours.
About rechargeable batteries
When using rechargeable batteries, the battery lifespan will normally become shorter with each recharge cycle. If
the batteries run down soon after being recharged, it’s time to replace them.
Installing Batteries
1. Switch o the Lucina AX-09’s power (p. 8).
2. Remove the cover of the battery compartment
located on the Lucina AX-09’s bottom panel.
While pressing the tabs of the cover, lift the cover up and
remove it.
3. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment.
Make sure to observe the correct polarity (+/– orientation)
for each battery when inserting it.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover.
* When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of newspapers
or magazines, and place them under the four corners or at both
ends to prevent damage to the buttons and controls. Also,
you should try to orient the unit so no buttons or controls get
damaged.
* When turning the unit upside-down, handle with care to avoid
dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over.

If used improperly, batteries may explode or leak and cause damage or injury. In the interest of safety, please read and observe the following precautions.
Carefully follow the installation instructions for batteries, and make sure you observe the correct polarity.
Avoid using new batteries together with used ones. In addition, avoid mixing di erent types of batteries.
