See page 37 for setting the
battery type.
To install the
batteries:
1. Remove the battery
cover by turning the
locking ring 1/4 turn
counter-clockwise
and pulling the cover
loose.
2. Insert the batteries,
observing the proper
polarity.
Remove the batteries when you do not plan to use the
unit for several months. Stored data is not lost when
batteries are removed.
