Battery Replacement Instructions
Preliminary: First ensure you have replacement cells on-hand. You will need 8 AA batteries of any
type, provided they are all of the same type and voltage. If you are using rechargeable batteries,
ensure they have sufficient charge. CAUTION: Mixing of cell types is highly inadvisable, and can lead
to faulty operation. Only use cells that are all of the same type and voltage.
Steps:
1. Remove the Belt Case, turn the MRI-3000 Analyzer OFF and remove any external power and/or
antenna or other DUT and place the Analyzer face down on a clean padded surface.
2. Lift the tilt stand to reveal the two battery cover screws and use a number 1 Philips
screwdriver to remove them.
3. Lift the battery cover and stand to expose the cells. DO NOT REMOVE the RETAINING
BAND across the upper four cells.
4. Remove the lower cells and slide the upper cells under the retaining band down to a vacant
location to remove them. If the cells are being replaced due to end-of-life cycle, please consult
your local regulations concerning hazardous waste disposal. DO NOT PLACE NIMH CELLS IN
THE TRASH.
