• Open the battery compartment and insert 3 AA batteries.
Be sure to note the polarity markings in the battery compartment. You can use either alkaline or rechargeable batteries, but the scanner will not recharge batteries in the compartment.
•Use only fresh alkaline AA batteries. Rechargeable batteries can be used,
but battery life is shorter than with alkaline batteries.
• Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that destroy electronic circuits.
•Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard,
alkaline, or rechargeable) or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
