Inserting the battery 

After removing the  old battery, the anode side (+ charge) of the new one must be first 
inserted into the battery compartment of the unit. 

Replacement batteries can be ordered through our customer service department. Temporarily, 
the use of a standard 1.5V battery AA/LR6 is also possible.  

After inserting the new battery, the battery cap is now gently pressed against the opening until 
the latches on the cap have snapped into place, and then reverted back into the original 
position by using the coin.  

At that point, the EPD carries out a 10 second self-test (beeping  and flashing of the display 
screen and the LED). 

Returning the batteries 

Please also return the exchanged batteries to the monitoring service. We will arrange for 
proper and environmentally friendly disposal. This service is free of charge.
