Powering the 76CS Plus
Your 76CS Plus can be powered by batteries or using
external power.
Installing the Batteries
The 76CS Plus operates on two “AA” batteries (not
included). Alkaline or NiMH batteries may be used.
See page 77 for setting the battery type. Stored data
will not be lost when batteries are removed. Install the
batteries in the back of the unit, as described below.
To install batteries:
1. Lift the D-Ring and turn it counter-clockwise
1/4 turn. Lift off the battery cover.
2. Insert the batteries, observing the proper
polarity. A polarity diagram is molded into the
battery compartment.
3. Reinstall the battery cover by reinserting the
locking pin in the back of the unit. Turn the
D-Ring 1/4 turn clockwise to lock in place.
For more information about using and disposing of
batteries, refer to page 89.
