Battery Installation
This unit requires 2 AA batteries (not included).

1. Remove the battery compartment cover by using your

thumb to grab the release tab. See 10-A.

2. Remove the insert that is in the battery compartment

and discard.

slot. Note: The unit will operate without this card.
See page 11 for Compact Flash card information.

4. Observing correct polarity (+) and (-), insert batteries

For best performance from alkaline batteries we
recommend using the highest capacity type available
as recommended for digital cameras and portable
CD players.

Note:

Make sure that alkaline batteries are removed from

the unit when using the optional cigarette lighter adapter
cord. If the batteries are not removed, damage to the
batteries and/or the unit will result.

If using rechargeable AA batteries, for longer life select the
highest capacity available. Ni-MH rechargeable batteries
are recommended. Common rechargeable batteries have a
power rating of 1700mA or higher.

Note:

DO NOT mix battery types as this can damage the

batteries. Lithium batteries are recommended for use in
cold temperatures.

Remove the batteries when the Galileo

will not be used

for an extended period of time. Damage caused by leaky
or improperly charged batteries (For example; Alkaline
batteries in unit while using the optional power cord)
is
not covered under warranty. Check with the battery
manufacturer about their specific product warranty and
disposal recommendations.
