Rechargeable Alkaline, NiMH, NiCad or Lithium batteries may be used. Stored data is not lost when the batteries are removed. To install batteries: 1. Remove the battery cover on the back of the unit. Turn the D-ring 1/4 turn counter-clockwise & pull away clockwise. 2. Insert batteries observing the polarity. 3. Reinstall the battery cover by turning the D-ring 1/4 turn.

Rechargeable batteries typically display less capacity than Alkaline batteries. Follow the battery manufacturer's instructions for proper care and disposal of used batteries. When using 'Battery Saver' or 'Use With GPS Off' mode when not navigating, Alkaline batter- ies can last up to 18 hours.
