3. Installing Batteries in your GM3+
Your monitor requires two external 1.5 Volts (AAA) alkaline batteries (type LR 03) that
need to be installed in the monitor before the monitor can be used.
ê
When replacing external batteries, always replace both batteries at the same time and both
should be of the same brand. Use good quality alkaline batteries only. Inferior/ Cheap batteries
may damage your monitor. If the batteries show signs of leakage, please replace immediately.
Leaking batteries will damage your monitor.
The life of the batteries depends on the extent of use and the brand of battery used.
1) Press lightly on the battery compartment cover lock and lift
the cover off the back of monitor.
2) Insert two 1.5 Volts (AAA) alkaline batteries (type LR03) one at
a time into the battery compartment.

that the positive & negative terminals are aligned correctly as
marked in the compartment.
4) Place the battery cover back on the GM3+ and snap it in place
to lock the battery compartment lid.

the correct direction. If batteries are incorrectly installed, the
