1.  Use a black lead to connect the (+) terminal of the first battery 

to the (-) terminal of the second battery. 

Note:

 The battery box 

contains two 6-volt batteries. When the battery box is used with 

the boards, it is necessary to connect the batteries to complete the 

circuit.

2.  Connect a red lead to the (+) terminal of one battery and a black 

lead to the (-) terminal of the other battery (Figure 2). Connect 

the other end of the leads to the corresponding terminals on the 

board you wish to power.
