How to Change the Alkaline Batteries
WARNING
To prevent ignition of a hazardous atmosphere, batteries must only
be changed in an area known to be non-hazardous (i.e., free of
combustible gas).
CAUTION
Use only Duracell® MN1300 "D" size batteries to maintain
intrinsically safe approval.
1. Remove the battery cover by releasing the latch and sliding the cover down and
off the handle. You may need to use a small flat-blade screwdriver to assist with
releasing the latch.
2. Remove the used batteries. Insert the two new "D" sized batteries in the battery
compartment with the positive ends facing toward the end of the handle.
3. Reinstall the battery cover by aligning it in the grooves on the handle and sliding
it up the handle until it latches.
Disposing of the Alkaline Batteries
At the end of the life of your alkaline batteries, please dispose of them according
to applicable state and local regulations. In the absence of such regulations,
INFICON encourages its customers to recycle and/or dispose of the cells through
voluntary waste recycling programs.
