Follow these steps to install or replace batteries:

1.Open battery cover located at the back of the unit by removing screws.

2.Insert 2 (two) new CR-2032 Lithium batteries.

3. Replace the battery cover.

A battery-low indicator [ BATT ] will show on the display when the batteries require changing.

It is recommended that when the user is stationary at one elevation, that the unit is placed in Barometer Mode. The Altimeter Mode may shorten battery life. Stored altitude related data is not affected by having the unit in Barometer Mode for extended periods of time.

NOTE Disposed of improperly, batteries can be harmful. Protect the environment by taking exhausted batteries to authorized disposal stations.

GENERAL OPERATION OF THE ALTIMETER

In Altimeter Mode, by detecting changes in air pressure, the EB833 determines a given altitude level. Subsequently, the unit can be set to show changes in altitude and maximum / minimum elevations. It can store altitude-related data and display elevation trends over a 12-hour period of time. The unit can also display the net total of accumulative ascents.

A small icon indicates that the unit is in Altimeter Mode and that the displays are altitude related.

To view display sequences in Altimeter Mode:

1.Press [ALT] to move between various Altimeter Mode displays.

Normal Altitude Display

The first display in Altimeter Mode.

NOTE If the unit is being used for the first time, it will automatically enter the Normal Altimeter Display. Display shows:
