To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on
the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing
and slip it into place. Always insert it all the way until it
locks in place with a little click.
If you can see the red indicator on the upper side of
the button, it is not locked completely. Install it fully
until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may
accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or
someone around you.
Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge.
If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
To remove the battery cartridge, sliding it from the tool
while pressing the button on the front of the cartridge.
Note:
When the speaker is in low battery, the middle LED
will flash in red.
