| STEP 8 Install the New Batteries . IMPORTANT: Be sure to test new batteries before installing. For tester settings, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Install the new Star Struck battery(s) with the same side up as the one(s) you replaced (8A). Remember, the watch won’t work if the batteries are put in the wrong way. SPRING CLIP: Place one end of the spring clip in place and firmly push the other end into its slot. SCREW-ON CLIP: Place the clip over the new batteries. Hold the screw with the screw holding tweezers to start it in the hole. Tighten the screw. IMPORTANT: If there is a rubber-sealing gasket in the base of the watch, make sure it is lined up properly before closing the back. |
