INSTALLING THE BASE’S
BATTERIES
The base needs four AA batteries (not sup-
plied) for back-up power in case AC power
fails. For the best performance and longest
life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline
batteries.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required
size and recommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries or dif-
ferent types of batteries (standard, alka-
line, or rechargeable).
1. Lift up the
battery com-
partment
cover on the
back of the
base and
remove it.
2. Place the batteries in the compartment
as indicated by the polarity symbols (+
and –) marked inside.
3. Replace the cover.
The Power/Low Battery Indicator flashes
about once every 5 seconds when the AC
power cord is plugged in, or if the power cord
is unplugged and the batteries have enough
power. The Power/Low Battery Indicator
flashes more rapidly if the power cord is un-
plugged and the batteries are low. When this
happens, replace the batteries.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly
and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
Caution: If you do not plan to use the sys-
tem for two weeks or longer, remove the bat-
teries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can
destroy electronic parts.
MOUNTING THE BASE
Mount the base at a height where the driver
can easily see it from the vehicle. For the
best performance, we recommend that you
mount the base about 3 to 6 feet from the
floor of the garage.
1. Drill two vertical holes into the mounting
surface 3
5
/
16
inches apart.
