BATTERIES CAUTIONS:
• When installing batteries, confirm that they are all
the same brand, type, and capacity. DO NOT mix
new and old batteries�
• DO NOT incinerate used battery cells since the
internal battery gas may cause them to rupture�
• DO NOT expose a detached battery case to
water. If the battery case gets wet, BE SURE to
wipe it dry before using it�
• DO NOT use batteries whose insulated covering
is damaged�
• Keep the battery terminals clean� It's a good idea
to clean them occasionally�
• Remove the alkaline batteries when the battery
case is not used. Otherwise, the installed alkaline
batteries will be exhausted due to the built-in step-
up converter�
TIP: The batteries may seem to have low capacity
when used in low temperatures� Keep the batteries
warm in this case�

DAbout the battery replacement

When the alkaline batteries are almost exhausted,
"LOW BATTERY" is displayed, and the battery
icon blinks. After 10 seconds, the receiver power is
automatically turned OFF. In that case, replace all 3
batteries with new alkaline batteries�
L The battery icon for the BP-293 cannot display the
capacity of the alkaline batteries� The battery icon always
displays "
," and it does not reflect the true battery
capacity�
