Power requirements

 

Pull  the  silicon  rubber  boot  off  of  the  unit  by  starting  at 
one  end  and  pulling  off  towards  the  other  end.    On  the 
back  side  you  will  see  the  battery  compartment.    Slide 
battery  compartment  cover  off  towards  bottom  end  of 
unit to reveal the 9V battery compartment.  Insert a fresh 
9V  battery,  make  sure  the  wires  are  routed  around  the 
battery.  (If  they  are  under  or  on  top  of  the  battery  the 
door  may  not  close  properly)  You  are  ready  to  go.   

Do 

not run this unit off of any power source other than a 
9V  battery.    Wall  adapters  are  electrically  noisy,  as 
are vehicle electrical systems.
