OPERATOR INSTRUCTION MANUAL
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
Your
SHADOWX2
is equipped with an automatic battery test circuit so that you can
always be sure you are getting top performance. The battery should be checked after the
detector has been on for about 10 minutes, and then periodically when used for long
durations. For more detailed information, turn to
Performing the Audio Battery Test
on
page 23.
To install or replace the battery, first make sure the SENSITIVITY control is set to
POWER OFF--turned completely counterclockwise past the "click". Remove the battery
door from the back of the control housing. Do this by pressing your thumb firmly on the
louvered square--at the bottom of the battery door--and sliding the battery door upward
(in the direction of the arrow) while pushing.
Check the polarity on the battery and on the diagram inside the battery compartment.
Make sure that they match and simply drop a fresh 9 volt alkaline battery into the
compartment.
Replace the battery door by sliding it into place making sure the upper mount slots are
in line and the tongue is snapped in place.
