Installing the batteries
To use your handheld, you must install two AAA alkaline batteries.
The batteries fit behind the battery door on the back of your handheld.
To install the batteries:
1. Press the tab on the battery door and lift the battery door away
from your handheld.
2. Install the two AAA alkaline batteries supplied with your
handheld into the battery compartment.
Note: A diagram in the interior of the battery compartment
shows the orientation of the positive (+) and negative (-)
ends of the batteries. When correctly installed, the clips in
the battery compartment secure the batteries in place.
3. Insert the battery door back into place so that it is flush with the
back of your handheld and “clicks” into position.
Important: Do not force the battery door. When the batteries are
correctly installed, the battery door clips smoothly into
place. If you feel resistance when replacing the battery
door, make sure the door is aligned with the slots on the
back of your handheld, and that the batteries are firmly
seated in the battery compartment.
Replacing batteries
Under normal conditions, depending on your usage pattern, the AAA
batteries of your handheld should provide weeks of use. When the
time comes to replace the AAA batteries, your handheld gives you
ample warning.
