How do I change a backup battery?
Steps to replace the battery:
Turn OFF the mains power to the alarm system by switching off the power point or unplugging the alarm transformer.
Remove the small screw on the side of the metal panel door and open the panel.
When the panel is opened, the alarm may sound. This is normal due to the tamper switch.
Go to the keypad and enter your normal alarm code to silence the alarm.
Inside the panel, disconnect the RED (positive) battery cable first, followed by the BLACK (negative) cable.
Remove the old battery and place the new battery into the panel.
Connect the RED (positive) cable first, then the BLACK (negative) cable.
Close the panel door and secure it with the screw or lock.
Restore mains power by plugging the transformer back in and switching the power point ON.
