The power will turn on when a plug is inserted in the guitar jack.

*  Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the 

volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. 

However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Power indicator

The indicator is lit when the power is on, and 

becomes dimmer as the batteries run low. When 

the battery voltage falls below a specified level, the 

indicator starts blinking. When the voltage falls even 

lower, the indicator goes dark, and all modes stop 

working.
Should this happen, the normal guitar mode will 

still work, so you can continue to play your BODEN 

without the modeling and tuning features.
*  The time it takes for all functions to stop after the 

power indicator has begun flashing varies depending on the battery type and temperature.

*  When the battery is nearly worn out, the unit’s indicator becomes dim. Replace the battery as 

soon as possible.

*  Expected battery life under continuous use: 

Rechargeable Ni-MH batteries: Approx. 9 hours 

Alkaline batteries: Approx. 6 hours 

These figures will vary depending on the specifications of the batteries and the actual 

conditions of use.
