2.5. Install and Check the Hand Controller Battery
The hand controller uses a button battery to keep the Real Time Clock running. The battery is a
CR2032 Lithium battery, which is not included due to shipping restrictions.
Open the HC back cover with a good, size 1 (4mm) Phillips Screw Driver. With battery + sign facing
up, slide the battery under two small metal hooks on the positive side first. Then push the battery down to
make a good contact. Make sure that two spring contacts on the negative side are underneath the battery. If
none of the metal pins in battery holder can be seen after battery is installed, the battery is not installed
properly.
