1 Installing the Batteries

The Rino 130 operates on three ???AA??? Alkaline batteries (not included) located in the back of the unit. Rechargeable batteries may also be used.

2.Insert batteries observing the polarity reference molded into the unit housing. Orient the negative (-) battery terminal toward the spring.

3.Reinstall the battery cover by inserting the bottom hinge clip and closing the cover. Turn the D-ring 1/4 turn clockwise.

Notes on battery use:

???When replacing batteries, use only new or fully recharged batteries. Rechargeable batteries may typically display less capacity than Alkaline batteries.

???Do not mix different types of batteries together.

???Remove the batteries from the unit if you do not plan to use it for several months. Follow the battery manufacturer???s instruc- tions for proper care and disposal of used batteries.

???Extensive use of backlighting, WAAS, and/or FRS or GMRS will signi???cantly reduce battery life.
