Warning:
Dispose of old batteries promptly
and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
Caution:
If you do not plan to use the detec-
tor for a week or more, remove the batteries.
Batteries can leak chemicals that can de-
stroy electronic parts.
Notes:
• For better life, exchange the two batter-
ies periodically.
• You can extend battery life by using
headphones, which require less power
than the built-in speaker. See “Using
Headphones.”
If the LOW BATT indicator lights during nor-
mal use or the detector does not function
properly, replace the batteries. If it still does
not function properly, you might need to re-
set the detector.
USING HEADPHONES
You can connect a pair of stereo head-
phones (not supplied) to the detector so you
can listen to it privately. Using headphones
also saves battery power and makes it easier
to identify subtle changes in the sounds you
hear, for better detection results. Your local
RadioShack store has a wide selection of
headphones.
To connect head-
phones to the de-
tector, insert the
headphones’
