Maintenance
Maintenance of the PIR involves replacing batteries.
6.1.
Replacing the Battery
The battery status is reported automatically to the monitoring station via the CP. When the status
indicates that the battery charge is low, the battery must be replaced.
WARNING!
A new battery can explode if it is incorrectly installed. Be careful to
replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by
the manufacturer. Discard used batteries responsibly.
To replace the battery, perform the following procedure:
1.
Remove the PIR from the mounting-base, as illustrated in Figure 24 below. While pushing
the tab,
at the bottom of the PIR, towards the wall, slide the PIR downwards off the mounting-base.
