Notes:
•Be sure not to press any of the TAD’s buttons while you are plug- ging the adapter into the AC out- let. If you accidentally press a button, reset the TAD by unplug- ging the adapter from the AC out- let and reinserting it.
•The TAD cannot operate without AC power.
INSTALLING THE BACKUP BATTERY
If the AC power fails or you unplug the TAD, a 9V backup battery (not sup- plied) saves the messages and the settings for the day, time, and security code. We recommend you use an al- kaline battery, such as Radio Shack Cat. No.
1.To remove the battery compart- ment cover on the bottom of the TAD, remove the screw with a small Phillips screwdriver, then lift off the cover.

Cautions:
•Before you replace the battery, be sure the supplied adapter is securely connected to an AC out- let and to the jack on the back of the TAD. Otherwise, you might lose any stored information.
•Always use a fresh battery of the required size and type.
•Dispose of the battery promptly and properly. Do not bury or burn it.
