After making sure that the power is off, remove the rear cover

on the back of the P-touch labeling system. If the batteries
are already in the P-touch labeling system, remove them.

Insert six new AA-size alkaline batteries (LR6), or fully
charged Ni-MH rechargeable batteries (HR6), making sure

that the positive (+) and negative (-) ends of the batteries
match the positive (+) and negative (-) marks inside the
battery compartment.

• Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the P-touch labeling system for an extended

period of time.

• Dispose of the battery at an appropriate collection point, not in the general waste stream. In

addition, be sure to observe all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.

• When storing or discarding the battery, wrap it (for example with

cellophane tape), to prevent it from short-circuiting.
