Battery Installation and Replacement:
The gauge comes standard with a quantity of three AAA alkaline batteries

(installed). Use either Duracell MN2400, MX2400 or Energizer E92BP,

X92RP AAA alkaline, non-rechargeable batteries.
Batteries have a life of approximately 1000 hours. Battery life is dependent

on gauge usage, backlite settings and power off settings. When the  display

flashes LOW BAT, batteries should be replaced.
To replace the batteries:
1) Remove the single screw on the back of the gauge case. 
2) Hold the keypad in the palm of hand.
3) Carefully remove the three batteries from the holder and replace the bat-

teries. Use only AAA alkaline non-rechargeable batteries.
