Battery removal/disposal instructions

This product contains one sealed, rechargeable NiMH (nickel metal hydride) battery pack. It is a maintenance-
free, leakproof, long-life battery that should not be removed under normal circumstances. Because removing
the battery may affect the product's configuration settings or trigger an alarm, only a qualified installer should
remove the battery.
To remove the battery, do the following:
1. Make sure that your product settings allow you to open its cover without starting the tamper alarm.
2. Switch off the mains power.
3. Press the tabs at the top of the panel and swing cover/chassis assembly away from the back piece.
4. Disconnect the battery by unplugging the battery leads from the battery connector on the panel.
5. Unfasten the battery strap and remove the battery.
For proper recycling, dispose of all batteries as required by local ordinances or regulations. See the
specifications for your product or contact technical support for information on replacement batteries.
