BATTERY PACK REPLACEMENT
The i-Q battery pack is user replaceable. It can be changed quickly and easily while in the field, including when in
a hazardous area. To replace the battery:
1) Ensure the instrument is switched off.
2) Using the supplied tool, select the Phillips No. 1 screwdriver and unscrew the four battery pack screws and
remove them from the case back
– see Figure 9 .
Note: The battery pack screws are retaining and should remain part of the pack.

3) Place the replacement battery pack (QED part number PMMPB) into the case back recess. It will only fit
one way and will automatically align itself.
4) Using the supplied tool, select the Phillips No. 1 screwdriver, and secure the battery pack in place.
5) i-Q is now ready to be switched on and used.
Note: If the PMMPB battery is removed, the backup coin cell will maintain time/date settings and CO (H
2
compensated) cell conditioning for approximately 10 minutes. After this time, the user will have to reset the time
& date and CO (H
2
compensated) cell conditioning will be affected, meaning the user may need to allow the cell
to stabilize for 24 hours before use.
Note: It is the opera tor’s responsibility to keep a record of when and what maintenance has been performed.
