Preparation
tings for the day, time, and security code. We
recommend you use RadioShack alkaline
batteries.
1. Use a Phillips screw-
driver to remove the
screw on the battery
compartment cover.
2. Place the batteries in
the compartment according to the polar-
ity symbols (
+
and
–
) marked inside.
3. Replace the cover and secure it with the
screw.
Replace the batteries when the LOW BAT-
TERY indicator lights while the TAD is con-
nected to AC power.
Warning: Dispose of the old batteries
promptly and properly. Do not bury or burn
them.
Cautions:
• To avoid losing stored information, be
sure the AC adapter is plugged in and
connected to the TAD before you
replace the batteries.
• Always use fresh batteries of the
required size and type.
• Always remove old or weak batteries.
Batteries can leak chemicals that can
destroy electronic parts.
• Do not mix old and new batteries or dif-
ferent types of batteries.
