manual laser engraved, it describes the
main functions of the slate.
Note. On delivery of the ACD 301 there is a Dummy cell inside
the battery
compartment. This is supplied for the operation with 8 cells only. The dummy is held in
place by a screw in a semi permanent fashion. Batteries ar usualy bought in 4 or 8 packs
and use of rechargeable nicads is very seldom. We think 8 batteries is the best
configuration and have fixed the dummy so that it cannot fall out and get lost.
