How To Install The Alkaline Batteries
1. Remove the battery cover by releasing the latch and sliding the cover down and off the
handle.
2. Install two “D” size alkaline batteries as shown in Figure 1.
3. Reinstall the battery cover by aligning it with the handle and sliding it up until the latch
engages.
When the batteries reach the end of their life, the green Low Battery indicator will start flashing.
While the batteries may operate the TEK-Mate up to one hour after the Low Battery indicator
starts flashing, the batteries should be replaced as quickly as possible.
