I lost the user manual and my battery is dying. Anybody knows how to change the batteries? Thank you!

Turn the blue piece on the bottom counter-clockwise, it will come off. You'll need a small phillips-head screwdriver to remove the cover from the battery compartment. Be careful not to lose the rubber o-ring under the battery cover. It requires an LR-44 battery.

According to the information I have with my manual, the battery is not supposed to be replaced. The battery, with proper care, is designed to last quite awhile, but it depends on how much you use it. I hope that's helpful.

Take the battery draw out and make sure it is clean & dry. Leave out for a while and then replace. I think this is what I did when mine did this. Of couse I don't remember where my instruction book is stored. If all else fails replace batteries. Hope this helps.

How do you open the battery compartment? I replaced the battery once, but this time I cannot open the compartment.

I have had the same problem. I brought it to best Buy and they said I probably need a new battery, but they dont sell them. You have to purchase directly from the manufacturer. Havent done it yet, but I am about to now

I believe you can change the battery. If it's difficult for you, maybe a friend or family member can help? I have not had to replace my battery, but if I remember correctly, you just use a small Phillips screwdriver, take the back off, & replace the battery with a new CR2032 3V battery.

Instruction book that comes with it isn't that good. I just played with the menu until I got it set up. don't know where you could find it? maybe google it? good luck.

Contact the company, obviously it's something wrong with the bob it itself. why did you have to change the batteries on a new one anyway? The batteries should have been good. I would think something was defective if it didn't work in the first place. Contact the company.

Kelci, you should be able to remove the battery compartment by pressing 2 tabs on the body of the screw driver. Once you do that, it would release the battery compartment, from there just remove the batteries and replace them with the new ones. Don't you have a manual page that goes with the screwdriver? The black round end with hole in it is the battery compartment. Let me know if you still have problems with replacing your batteries. If you still can't figure it out how to do it, ask your husband, he should know how to do it. Good luck!

I would see about contacting the seller and see if they can send you a new one. I had no issue with my nieces. We put the batteries in and it worked great. Sorry yours is having issues. I bet the person you bought it from will give you a new one in exchange of your not working one.

I'm not sure mine didn't even work when I got it so I'm gonna have to look into it as well. I'll look and see if mine came with a manual.

Check out their website. If you don't find anything there, email the company and request another manual.

You are correct - the manual is useless. So neither do I know how to operate the radio. When using it on batteries it comes on by itself (runs down batteries needlessly). After losing power, either from run-down batteries or being unplugged from ac it loses all memory of station sets and time. Directions are not clear as to how to set time or preset stations. I'm ready to toss it.

I have been trying to find a manual as well besides the one that came with it. Try looking up the name of the tablet on line or go on YouTube there are lots of people on there that can help you operate it.Sorry don't know no other way

I had trouble with swapping the battery. I think I had two batteries of the right size, pried this open just fine, but once I FORCED the two batteries in, they were too tall (by the tiniest amount) and were constantly pressing on the chip's button. Has anyone run into that? I'll see if I can find those batteries that didn't fit and double-check their type.

I guess I would change the battery, I had to change mind before it would work right out of the box. Good luck!
