INSTALLING BATTERIES
Use a flat-head screwdriver to loosen the
screw in the battery compartment cover,
then lift open the cover.
Cautions:
• Match the polarity symbols (+ and –)
marked inside.
• Always use fresh batteries of the
required size.
• Do not mix old and new batteries,
different types of batteries (stan-
dard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.
