Just open the battery compartment and look at the diagram. Only use AAA alkaline batteries; no lithium or rechargeables. Make sure the batteries are all of the same brand and shelf life, ie don't mix and match because the batteries will perform according to the weakest one. Read your manual, practice up, and have fun!
