about how to enter and manage the information on your MC 218.
• Refer to the “Troubleshooting” chapter if you have any problems using
the MC 218.
The MC 218 is powered by:
• 7wo AA size main batteries (supplied) - alkaline batteries are
recommended.
• 2ne Lithium CR2032 backup battery (supplied). This preserves your
information while you change the main batteries.
• You can also power the MC 218 from the mains. You should use
ONLY Ericsson approved mains adaptors. See your Ericsson dealer for
more information.
Fitting the batteries
Before you can use the MC 218 you must fit both sets of batteries.
Note! Make sure you fit them the correct way round.
To insert the batteries
1. Turn your MC 218 upside down.
2. Click open the rear cover and slide it downwards. Insert the main batteries.
3. Slide open the small cover. Insert the backup battery.
Warning! Take care when replacing batteries! You will lose information if
you remove both sets of batteries at the same time, or allow both sets of
batteries to become completely run down. The MC 218 will warn you when its
batteries are getting low, in plenty of time to change them. See the “Battery
Caution Statements” section in the “Important Information” chapter for more
about battery safety, and details of how to change the batteries.
Rechargeable batteries

called NiCd or Nicad batteries) to power the MC 218, but some care is
