1. Carefully turn the device over to reveal the battery compartment. A small silver
screw must be removed from the battery compartment cover in order to slide
it off. Observing proper polarity, install four AA alkaline batteries into the
holder Use alkaline batteries only (e.g. Duracell or Energizer brand). Do not
use rechargeable batteries or any other type of batteries because they supply
lower voltage and the unit will not perform properly. Never mix old and new
batteries together or different brands or types of batteries together. Replace
the battery compartment cover and screw.

slot behind the switch plate on the communicator. Three shatter-proof blank
picture cards come with your unit. Customize the cards by attaching your own
pictures or symbols or writing directly on the cards. "White Board" markers
available at any office supply store can be used to write and erase messages.
