Batteries
Expected life for AA batteries is up to 14 hours (total battery life varies depending upon battery
type and manufacturer).
When the LED indicator turns red, it signifies "low battery" with approximately 60 minutes of re-
maining battery life.
For alkaline batteries only. For rechargeable batteries, solid red means the batteries are dead.
To remove batteries from the handheld transmitter, push them out through the opening in the
microphone battery compartment.
WARNING:
Danger of explosion if battery incorrectly
replaced. Operate only with Shure compatible batteries.
WARNING:
Battery packs shall not be exposed to ex-
cessive heat such as sunshine, fire, or the like.
