Inserting a charged battery
1Wipe the battery terminals of the charged battery with a
clean cloth to ensure a good connection.
2With the battery release latch pulled toward the unlocked
position, insert the battery from the back end first at a
slight angle so that end fits evenly with the surrounding
casing. If the back end has been correctly inserted, you
will be able to gently press the front end into place until it
snaps shut. If the front end resists, don’t force it. Simply
start over.
Inserting the battery
