To replace batteries
1. Open the battery compartment on the back of the PDM by
pushing the compartment latch inward and then upward
(Figure A-2). No special tools are necessary.
2. Insert 2 new AAA alkaline batteries into the compartment.
3. Replace the battery door.
4. Turn the PDM face up.
5. Press and hold the Power button.
The PDM is now ready to use. Dispose of the old batteries in
accordance with local waste disposal regulations.
If the PDM becomes submerged in water
The PDM is not waterproof. Do not place it in water or leave it
near water where it can accidentally fall in. If it becomes sub-
merged in water:
1. Dry the outside of the PDM with a clean, lint-free cloth.
2. Open the battery compartment; remove the batteries and
discard them.
3. Use a clean, lint-free cloth to gently absorb any water in the
battery compartment.
4. Leave the battery compartment door open until the PDM is
thoroughly dry.
If the batteries run out, data in the memory is at risk.
DO NOT remove the old batteries until you have
new ones at hand. The longer the batteries are
removed, the more the memory is at risk.
Figure A-2
The diagram inside the compartment shows you
which direction to insert the batteries.
Never use a blow dryer or hot air to dry the Pod or
PDM. Extreme heat can damage the electronics.
