Battery Installation
Remove the battery holder by pulling it out as shown in figure B. Insert two
fresh alkaline AA batteries making sure to match (+) and (-) terminals correctly
and reinstall the battery holder. The battery holder will only fit back into the tool one
way. If it does not seem to fit properly, don't force it. Rotate it one half way
around and try it again. Ensure that the battery holder is inserted all the way.
WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak, and can cause injury or fire.
To reduce this risk:
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.
• Always insert batteries correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -), marked on the battery and
the equipment.

• Do not short battery terminals.
• Do not charge batteries.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Replace all of them at the same time with new batteries of
the same brand and type.
• Remove dead batteries immediately and dispose of per local codes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove batteries if the device will not be used for several months.
• Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in
contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US
Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting
individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated
from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

should the unit accidentally fall into water without the battery cap in place, shake out
loose liquid and allow to air dry overnight with battery cap removed.
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

2. To clean the unit, wipe with a damp sponge and a mild soap.

Tips on Cleaning Agents
IMPORTANT: The Power Detail Cleaner has been designed for easy, powerful
cleaning. If you are uncertain about its use on a surface, test the attachment on a small
inconspicuous area before cleaning larger areas.
• Always follow manufacturer's recommendations when using a chemical cleaner such as
sprays, foams, rub-on gels, liquid detergents, or bleach solutions.
• Cleaners with abrasives can damage some surfaces. Use a cleaner that is appropriate for
the surface being cleaned. Test the cleaner on a small, inconspicuous area if uncertain.
• Always wear rubber gloves and protective eye wear (to avoid splatter) when using irritating
cleaners.
