Installing The Batteries - Garmin eTrex Vista Cx Owner's Manual

Installing the Batteries

The Vista Cx operates on two AA batteries (not
included), which are installed in the back of the unit.
You can use Alkaline or NiMH batteries. See page 67
for information on setting the battery type.
To install the batteries:
Remove the batteries from your Vista Cx when you do
not expect to use the unit for several months. Stored
data is not lost when batteries are removed.
1. Remove the battery
cover by turning the D-Ring
1/4 turn counter-clockwise
and pulling the cover loose.
2. Insert the batteries,
observing the proper
polarity. A polarity diagram
is molded into the battery
compartment.
3. Reinstall the battery
cover by aligning the back
cover with the unit and
turning the D-Ring 1/4 turn
clockwise.
To install the lanyard:
1. Place the loop of the lanyard through the slot
at the upper-left side on the back of the unit.
2 Route the strap through the loop, and pull tight.
