Notes:
Be sure not to press any of the
TAD’s buttons while you are plug-
ging the adapter into the AC out-
let. If you accidentally press a
button, reset the TAD by unplug-
ging the adapter from the AC out-
let and reinserting it.
The TAD cannot operate without
AC power.
INSTALLING THE
BACKUP BATTERY
If the AC power fails or you unplug the
TAD, a 9V backup battery (not sup-
plied) saves the messages and the
settings for the day, time, and security
code. We recommend you use an al-
kaline battery, such as Radio Shack
Cat. No. 23-553.
1. To remove the battery compart-
ment cover on the bottom of the
TAD, remove the screw with a
small Phillips screwdriver, then lift
off the cover.
2. Snap the battery’s contacts firmly
to the battery connector, then put
the battery into the compartment.
3. Replace the cover, then reinsert
and tighten the screw.
Replace the battery if the LOW BATT.
indicator turns on while the AC adapter
is properly connected.
Cautions:
Before you replace the battery, be
sure the supplied adapter is
securely connected to an AC out-
let and to the jack on the back of
the TAD. Otherwise, you might
lose any stored information.
Always use a fresh battery of the
required size and type.
Dispose of the battery promptly
and properly. Do not bury or burn
it.
