Installing and removing the battery

NOTE Opening the battery cover automatically turns off the power. There is a mechanism at the upper left side of the battery compartment that switches the power off automatically when you slide out the battery cover. This is a safety measure for protecting the power circuitry, so please make sure not to lose the battery cover.

Connecting to a power source

IMPORTANT You need to charge the battery before using the device for the first time.
