24K Directory Organizer  (650-0950)      Battery       Faxback Doc. # 15646
Telephone Dialer

INSTALLING/REPLACING BATTERY

The directory organizer is powered by two AA batteries.  For best
performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such as
Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-552.

The batteries should last about 440 days, based on an average use of 20
telephone calls per day.  When the display becomes dim, replace the
batteries as follows:

CAUTIONS:  You should always keep a written record of all important names
           and numbers.  All electronic devices are subject to possible
           data loss.

           Have fresh batteries on hand before you begin.  You must
           install new batteries as quickly as possible after removing the
           old ones, or you lose the information stored in the directory
           organizer.

           To prevent losing the information stored in the directory
           organizer, do not press any button while you replace the
           batteries.

1.  Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove two screws on the battery
    compartment cover.  Then, pull the tab to remove the battery
    compartment cover.

2.  Remove and replace the batteries, observing the correct polarity as
    marked inside the compartment.

3.  Replace the battery compartment cover.  Secure it with the two screws.

4.  Confirm that no records were lost or altered.  If you notice any
    changes, you must initialize the directory organizer.  See
    "Initializing."

The directory organizer also has a backup battery that protects the memory
when the main batteries are dead or removed.  This battery lasts about 3
years.  When the directory loses all information when you remove the main
batteries, the backup battery needs to be replaced.  This battery is not
user-serviceable.  Take the directory organizer to your local Radio Shack
store, where our personnel can have a repair center replace the battery.
