Insert the batteries into the battery compartment, taking care to observe 

the correct polarity.

3. 

Securely close the battery compartment cover.

If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and fluid leakage. Make 

sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are listed 

in “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (leaflet “USING THE UNIT 

SAFELY” and Owner’s manual (p. 21)).
