LCD Transmitter Battery Replacement
Your Astra Remote Transmitter uses a 1.5 volt AAA alkaline battery, which will require replacement in time.
Depending on the amount of use, the battery may last up to three months before it needs replacement.
When the battery needs replacing, the system’s operating range will decrease, the LCD display will show
only one of three bars in the battery icon, or the display and sounds may suddenly stop and start as the
battery voltage drops below minimum.
In order to change the battery, first slide the battery door locking pin to the side. Carefully slide the battery
cover downward until it is free. While replacing the battery make sure that the positive and negative
terminals are positioned correctly, then carefully reassemble the transmitter case.
