BATTERY INSTALLATION
Your LXT600 Series radio operates with either a NiMH battery pack or
optional 3 AAA alkaline batteries. The belt clip should be removed (see

To install the batteries:

diagram below) for easy access, then remove the Battery Cover by
pressing down on the top center and sliding it down from the radio.
2. Insert 3 AAA batteries observing the polarity as shown. Installing
the batteries incorrectly will prevent the unit from operating or may
damage the unit.
3. Return the Battery Cover by sliding it up on the radio. Replace the belt
clip, making sure it locks into place.
