Insert 8 D-cell batteries, ensuring the correct polarity as indicated inside the compartment. Secure the battery cover by turning the knob clockwise until tight.
If the lantern does not turn on, check that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity. Ensure the battery compartment is fully closed. If the problem persists, try using a new set of batteries or inspect the battery contacts for corrosion and clean them if necessary.
