Inserting batteries
1. Make sure that the power of the BR-864 is turned off.
2. Remove the battery cover on the rear panel.
* When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of
newspapers or magazines, and place them under the four
corners or at both ends to prevent damage to the buttons and
controls. Also, you should try to orient the unit so no buttons
or controls get damaged.
* When turning the unit upside-down, handle with care to avoid
dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over.
3. Being careful not to reverse the polarity (+/-), insert six
AA dry-cell batteries into the battery compartment.
* BOSS recommends using longer-life alkaline batteries.
* Do not mix new batteries with partially used batteries, and do
not mix batteries of differing types.
* Do not use rechargeable batteries.
4. Close the battery cover.
