Installing the Batteries
WARNING
Do not allow batteries to come into contact with fire, and do not charge them (unless they

actions may cause batteries to overheat or explode, possibly resulting in fire or injury.
CAUTION
Do not use battery types that are not specified for this instrument. Never mix old and
new batteries, or different types of batteries. Be sure to load batteries with the (+) and
(–) polarities in the correct direction. Neglecting any of these precautions may result in
battery leakage or explosion, possibly resulting in fire, injury, or environmental dam-
age.

tery cover and pull it off.

2. Place the batteries into the compartment. Be sure that the + and –

batteries.
