2.Insert the Li-ion battery into the battery compartment, battery information side up and battery contacts to the bottom, at an angle with the battery contacts inserted first.

3.Push the Li-ion battery the remainder of the way into the compartment. The battery will fit snuggly into place.

4.Close the battery compartment by sliding the battery cover toward the scan head until the cover locks into place.

5.Turn the unit over, so the keypad is visible and hold down the power button .

6.The LCD graphical display will display a menu and an audible indicator will sound to signify that the Optimus has been powered up properly.

7.Using the arrow keys select the Run Program option.

8.Scan a bar code.
