Installing the Batteries

The eTrex operates on two AA batteries (not included),
which are installed at the back of the unit. To install the
batteries, remove the battery cover by turning the D-ring
on the back of the unit 1/4 turn counter-clockwise and pull
the cover away. Insert the batteries observing proper polar-
ity. Attach the battery cover by turning the D-ring 1/4 turn
clockwise. Two AA alkaline batteries should last about 22
hours in 'Battery Save' mode.
