Changing the main battery
Inserting a charged battery
To insert a battery:
1 Wipe the terminals of the charged battery with a clean
cloth to ensure a good connection.
2 Insert the charged battery into the slot until the latch
clicks.
The battery pack has been designed so that you cannot
install it with reverse polarity.
If the battery does not slide into the slot easily, move the
battery release lock to the unlocked position and try
again. Do not force the battery into position.
