BATTERY INSTALLATION
Your LXT500/535 Series radio operates with either a NiMH battery pack
or optional 4 “AAA” alkaline batteries. The belt clip should be removed
to ease installation or removal of the batteries.
To install the batteries:
1. With the back of the radio facing you, remove the belt clip (see diagram
on next page) for easy access, then remove the Battery Cover by press-
ing down on the top center and sliding it down from the radio.
2. Insert 4 “AAA” batteries observing the polarity as shown. Installing
the batteries incorrectly will prevent the unit from operating or may
damage the unit.
3. Return the Battery Cover by sliding it up on the radio. Replace the
belt clip, making sure it locks into place.
