Power supply
The Paxos Compact electronic lock is powered by 6 batteries (1.5 volt alkaline,
type UM3 or LR6). When the battery power decreases, "Battery empty" is shown
on the display. However, the lock can still be opened. As soon as the battery
power drops below 6.5 volts, the lock can no longer be opened, and the batteries
must be replaced. The codes and the programming are not deleted by this.
Do not use accumulators (rechargeable), as their capacity is not sufficient for
trouble-free operation.
3.1. Opening the battery compartment
The battery compartment is located on the underside of the input unit. Use the
supplied Allen key to loosen the locking screw and swing the battery compartment
out downwards.
After replacing the batteries, the display will show "The battery compartment has
been opened". Press the "Enter" key to clear this display, otherwise this message
will appear each time the lock is opened.
