FEATURES
Your Optimus Micro-35 Auto-Reverse Mi-
crocassette Tape Recorder is ideal for
quick note-taking. Its ultra-small size
makes it easy to slip into a pocket or brief-
case. You can use it at school, at business
conferences, for dictation in the office, or
anywhere on the go! You can turn on re-
cording manually or set the recorder so
sound activates recording.
Your recorder includes these features:
Voice-Activation Circuitry (VOX) — be-
gins recording when the recorder picks up
sound and stops a few seconds after the
sound stops.
Tape Counter with Reset Button — lets
you mark the locations of certain sections
of tape so you can easily return to them.
Built-In Microphone and Speaker — let
you record and play back notes anywhere.

External Microphone Jack — lets you
use an external microphone, so you can
extend your recording range.
Earphone Jack — lets you use an optional
earphone to listen to a tape in privacy.
Quick Record — lets you instantly change
from playback to record.
Tape Speed Switch — lets you record at
normal or slow speed. Slow speed gives
you twice the normal recording time.
Fast Play — lets you play a tape back
about 30% faster than normal speed, to
save time when listening to a tape.
Auto Reverse — automatically changes
tape sides when the front side of the tape
reaches the end during recording and play-
back.
Auto Shut-Off — stops automatically
when the tape reaches the end after play-
ing both sides.

er).

serial number here. The number is inside
the recorder’s battery compartment.

PREPARATION
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
To protect the tape deck mechanism dur-
ing shipment, a protective sleeve is insert-
ed in the cassette compartment. Remove it
before you use the Micro-35.
To protect the Micro-35’s front panel during
shipment, a piece of blue film covers the
panel. Peel off this film before you use the
Micro-35.
CONNECTING TO POWER
You can power your Micro-35 from any of
the following:
• Internal battery power
• AC power (with an optional AC
adapter)
• Your vehicle’s battery (with an optional
DC adapter)

Using Batteries
You can use two AA batteries (not sup-
plied) to power your Micro-35. We recom-
mend alkaline batteries, such as
RadioShack Cat. No. 23-552.
You can also use rechargeable nickel-cad-
mium batteries (Cat. No. 23-125) and a
battery charger (Cat. No. 23-133), avail-
able at your local RadioShack store.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the
required size and type.
• Never leave dead or weak batteries in
the Micro-35. Batteries can leak chem-
icals that can destroy electronic cir-
cuits.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, dif-
ferent types of batteries (standard,
alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.
• Dispose of old batteries promptly; do
not bury or burn them.

Follow these steps to install batteries.
1. Slide the battery compartment cover in
the direction of the arrow until it stops,
then lift up the cover.
Caution: The battery compartment
cover is attached to the recorder. Do
not try to remove it.
2. Insert the batteries into the compart-
ment as indicated by the polarity sym-
bols (+ and –) marked inside the
compartment.
3. While pressing down the battery com-
partment cover against the recorder,
slide it in the opposite direction of the
arrow to close it.

Notes:
• If the record/battery indicator to the
right of the MIC jack does not light or
lights dimly during manual recording,
replace the batteries.
• If you do not plan to use the Micro-35
for several days, or if you plan to use
only AC or vehicle battery power,
remove the batteries.
Important: Your recorder is capable of us-
ing rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries.
At the end of the batteries’ useful life, they
must be recycled or disposed of properly.
Contact your local, county, or state hazard-
ous waste management authorities for in-
formation on recycling or disposal
programs in your area. Some options that
might be available are: municipal curbside
collection, drop-off boxes at retailers such
as your local RadioShack store, recycling
collection centers, and mailback programs.

Using AC Power
To power the Micro-35 from an AC outlet,
you need an AC adapter (not supplied),
such as Cat. No. 273-1654, and an EIAJ
2.35 mm outer diameter/0.7 mm inner di-
ameter adapter barrel plug (not supplied),
such as Cat. No. 273-1646.
Cautions:
• You must use an AC adapter that sup-
plies 3 volts DC power and delivers at
least 200 milliamps. The center tip of
the adapter barrel plug must be set to
positive, and the plug must properly fit
the Micro-35’s DC3V jack. The recom-
mended AC adapter and plug meet
these specifications. Using an AC
adapter and plug that do not meet
these specifications could damage the
Micro-35, the AC adapter, or the plug.
• Always connect the AC adapter to the
Micro-35 before you plug it into the AC
outlet, and unplug the adapter from
the AC outlet before you unplug it from
the Micro-35.
