cover by turning the D-Ring
1/4 turn counter-clockwise

polarity. A polarity diagram
is molded into the battery
compartment.
3. Reinstall the battery
cover by aligning the back
cover with the unit and
turning the D-Ring 1/4 turn
clockwise.
Remove the batteries from your Vista Cx when you do
not expect to use the unit for several months. Stored
data is not lost when batteries are removed.

at the upper-left side on the back of the unit.
