KEstREL 4500 & 4600:
AAA batteries have a magnetic signature strong
enough to affect the Kestrel 4500’s compass read-
ings. Please follow this extra step to ensure the
batteries stay in proper orientation.
Before closing the door, push the plastic shim
(provided with unit) between batteries and place
clear ring on end over positive battery “bump.”
When replacing batteries in the Kestrel 4500, always keep
the shim and re-insert with new batteries as described.
