Replacing or Recharging the

Batteries

WARNING: To prevent ignition of a hazardous atmosphere, batteries

must only be changed or charged in an area known to be

nonhazardous.

Replace or charge the batteries when the battery icon indicates that

the unit is in low battery warning. When in low battery warning, only

half of one battery level indication bar is displayed in the battery icon

on the LCD, and this icon will be flashing.

Replacing Alkaline Batteries or Ni-MH Battery Pack

NOTE: Use Procell PC 1500 alkaline batteries, Duracell MN 1500

alkaline batteries, or RKI Instruments Ni-MH battery pack

49-1606RK to maintain the CSA classification of the GX-2003.

Use of other batteries or mixing alkaline and rechargeable

batteries will void the CSA classification and may void the

warranty.

1. Turn off the GX-2003.

WARNING: Do not remove the batteries or battery pack while the

GX-2003 is on.

2. Turn the battery cover release knob counterclockwise, remove the

battery cover, and lay it aside.

3. Carefully remove the old alkaline batteries or rechargeable battery

pack. To remove the battery pack, pull up on the tab at the bottom

of the pack where “PULL” is molded into the plastic near the tab.

Verify that the battery compartment and electrical contacts are

clean.

4. Carefully install the new AA alkaline batteries or rechargeable

battery pack.

For alkaline batteries, follow the battery diagram inside the

battery compartment.

For a battery pack, match the molded polarity symbols in the

corners of the pack with the diagram inside the battery

compartment. Insert the end of the pack with the “-” symbol into

the compartment first and then push it against the battery springs
