INSTALLING THE BATTERY
Your pager requires one AAA battery. For the best per-
formance, we recommend an alkaline battery, such as
Radio Shack Cat. No. 23-555.
1. Slide the battery compartment lock up and slide
the battery door in the direction of the arrow. The
pager’s door hinges open. If you accidentally lift it
so far that it pops off of the pager, simply snap it
back into place.
2. Insert the battery’s positive end first, as indicated
by the polarity symbol (+) marked outside the
compartment.

3. Close the battery door and slide the battery com-
partment lock down to secure it.
Notes:
• To conserve battery power, turn the pager off
when you are not using it.
• The battery should provide about 850 to 950
hours of continuous use.
A low battery alert sounds and the pager displays LO
CELL when the battery’s power is low. When this oc-
curs, replace the battery.
Notes:
• To save battery power, all pager alerts change to
2 seconds in length when battery power is low.
• When you replace the battery, the pager keeps all
messages and the time and date.

PAGER IDEAS
Give your pager number to friends and family. When
they call your pager number, they can use their
phone’s touch-tone keypad to enter the number where
you can reach them. Your pager displays this number
when you receive the page. You are in touch wherever
you go in your PageMart coverage area.
• Include your pager number on your telephone
answering machine greeting. This way you can
immediately receive important messages.
• Leave your pager number at your children’s
school and with the babysitter so you can always
be reached in an emergency.
• Establish code messages with your family and
friends. For example, your children can page you
with the code 3333 to tell you they got home from
school. Your spouse can send 07734 to say hello!
(Read it upside-down.)

• If you have a cellular phone, give out your pager
number instead of your cellular number. Then
you can decide who to call back on your cellular
phone, without paying for incoming cellular calls.
This can drastically reduce your monthly cellular
bill.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Keep the pager dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry
immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that
corrode the electronic circuits.
• Use and store the pager only in normal tempera-
ture environments. Temperature extremes can
shorten the life of electronic devices and distort or
melt plastic parts.
• Handle the pager gently and carefully. Dropping it
can damage circuit boards and cases and can
cause the pager to work improperly.
• Keep the pager away from dust and dirt, which
can cause premature wear of parts.
• Wipe the pager with a damp cloth occasionally to
keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals,
cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean
the pager.
