INSTALLING BATTERIES

The bike radio uses four C batteries for power. We recommend alkaline
batteries, such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-551.

1. Turn the mounting bracket's knob counterclockwise to loosen it and
remove the bracket.

2. Press down and slide the battery compartment cover in the direction
of the arrows and lift off the cover.

3. Install the batteries on top of the battery ribbon, placing them as
indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside the
compartment.

4. Replace the cover and mounting bracket. Turn the mounting bracket's
knob clockwise to secure it.

Note: If you do not plan to use the bike radio for a week or more,
remove the batteries. This protects the radio from possible
battery leakage.
