Battery Replacement
Your Rhino Wireless Keypad is powered by long-life lithium batteries. The batteries are expected
to last up to one year in the average home environment. The Wireless Keypad is capable of
audibly indicating when the batteries need replacing by generating two low tone beeps (instead of
normal single high tone beep) when the hash ‘#’ key is pressed to wake it up. When this occurs,
replace the batteries as soon as possible.
The Wireless Keypad uses two
CR2025
type lithium cell batteries. Using incorrect batteries will
damage the device, and will not be covered under warranty.
Replacement Procedure:
Open the case:
To replace the batteries, the first step is to open the case of the Wireless Keypad. The case
of the keypad can simply be prised open up by gently inserting the
flat blade of a small screwdriver (or tip of a knife) into the small notch
in the bottom of the case (see picture right). Once the halves are
separated, the circuit board and the metallic battery compartment should be visible. Please only
hold the circuit board by its edges, to prevent any damage to the electronic components.
Remove the old batteries:
The old batteries can be removed by pushing them out of the compartment using a non-
metallic object.
Insert the new batteries:
The Wireless Keypad uses two batteries. Whenever replacement is needed, both batteries
must be replaced at the same time. When inserting the new batteries, make sure both batteries
are orientated correctly; that is both batteries placed on top of one another, with the positive (‘+’)
sides face up.
