INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE
BACKUP BATTERY
If the AC power fails or you unplug the
TAD-1010, a 9V backup battery (not
supplied) saves the messages and the
settings for the day, time, and security
code. We recommend you use an alka-
line battery, such as Radio Shack Cat.
No. 23-553.
Follow these steps to install the backup
battery.
Cautions:
• Before you replace the battery, be
sure the supplied adapter is
securely connected to an AC outlet
and to the jack on the back of the
TAD. Otherwise, you might lose any
stored information.
• Always use a fresh battery of the
required size and type.
• Dispose of the battery promptly and
properly. Do not bury or burn it.
1. Remove the battery compartment
cover on the bottom of the base by
sliding the cover in the direction of
the arrow.
2. Snap the battery’s contacts firmly
to the battery connector, then place
the battery into the compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
Note: If flashes after installing a
fresh backup battery, unplug the AC
adapter from the AC outlet (if connect-
ed), then reconnect it.
