Testing and Replacing the Call 
Pendant’s Battery

The call pendant comes with a 3-volt
lithium battery installed. This battery will
last up to 5 years with normal use.

To test the call pendant’s battery, set 

In-

stall/Run

 to 

Install

, then press 

STOP

 on

the call pendant. If the battery indicator
flashes, the battery is good. If the indica-
tor is dim or does not light, replace the
battery. We recommend a type CR2025
battery, such as RadioShack Cat. No.
23-161.

Follow these steps to replace the call
pendant battery.

Caution: Use only a fresh battery of the
required size and recommended type.

1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove

the two screws from the back of the
call pendant, then remove the back
of the pendant.

2. Remove the old battery, but not the

cardboard backing beneath it.

Warning: Keep batteries out of the
reach of children. Swallowing a lith-
ium battery can be fatal.

3. Insert a fresh battery with the posi-

tive (+) side facing up.

4. Replace the back of the pendant

and secure it with the screws.

Note: Ensure the seal between the
front and back covers is not pinched
when replacing the back cover.

Cautions:

• Always remove an old or weak bat-

tery. Batteries can leak chemicals
that can destroy electronic parts.

• Dispose of old batteries promptly

and properly. Do not burn or bury
them.

After you have installed the new battery,
re-initialize the call pendant (see “Initial-
izing the Call Pendant” on Page 8).

STORING PHONE 
NUMBERS

The system can store up to four num-
bers. When you press 

EMERGENCY

CALL

 on the call pendant, the dialer will

call each stored number until it receives
a response, you press 

STOP

 on the call

pendant, or the system has dialed for 4
minutes without receiving a response.
See “Using the System” on Page 12 for
more details.
