Note:
◆ Do not use Manganese batteries or Ni-Cd batteries in place of
Alkaline batteries.
◆ Always replace all batteries at the same time. Mixing old and new
batteries or mixing types (such as Alkaline with zinc carbon) will
reduce overall performance and could cause leakage or rupture.
◆ Remove all batteries from the case when it is not expected to be
in use for several months.
◆ The voltage of new Alkaline batteries varies slightly, depending
on the manufacturer. Thus, the high battery power indicator may
not appear even though new Alkaline batteries are installed
{page 83}.
◆ To lift the battery pack safety catch, use a piece of hardened
plastic or metal, such as a screwdriver, that is no more than
6 mm wide and 1 mm thick. It is imperative that you place the
implement under only the lip of the safety catch so that you do
not damage the release latch.
