Changing the main battery
If the battery is leaking or its case is cracked, put on 
protective gloves to handle it, and discard it immediately. 
Always dispose of used battery packs in compliance with 
all applicable laws and regulations. Put insulating tape, 
such as cellophane tape, on the electrode during 
transportation to avoid a possible short circuit, fire or 
electric shock. Failure to do so could possibly result in 
serious injury.
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.
