BATTERY INSTALLATION
Inserting/Replacing Batteries
This diary is powered by two 3V button-cell batteries, both of which are
type CR2032. One of the main battery, and the other is the back-up
battery. The main battery provides power for normal operations. The back-
up battery protects data stored in memory when changing the main
battery.
If the LCD becomes dim, replace the main battery. Your data is protected
by the back-up battery during main battery replacement.
Memory contents are lost when both the main battery and the back-up
battery are removed at the same time. Be sure to leave one of the
batteries in place to protect the data in memory. If you remove the main
battery for any amount of time, memory retention will depend entirely on
the condition of the back-up battery and memory contents are likely to be
damaged. If memory seems corrupted, clear it using the reset operation.
Replacing Main Battery
1. With the diary turned off, using a
Phillips® screwdriver, remove the
screw on the battery compartment
door on the back of the unit.
Remove the battery compartment
door.
2. Remove the old battery using a thin,
pointed, non-metallic object.

WARNING: YOUR MUST REPLACE THE MAIN BATTERY BEFORE

battery with a soft, dry cloth. Insert
the new battery. The “+” should be
facing you.
Replacing Back-up Battery

way you replace the main battery.

place before removing the back-up
battery, or all data will be lost.
