Section 9: Replacing Batteries
F
rom time to time, the batteries in the detectors and other components of your system will
need to be changed. If a device has a low battery, your system will display a trouble mes-
sage (see
Checking Trouble Conditions
on page 16
).
When the batteries in one device need to be replaced, it is suggested that the batteries in all
system devices be replaced at the same time. The batteries used in the devices are Eveready
Alkaline Energizer or Energizer Lithium batteries.
NOTE:
Before changing the batteries in the detectors, you should inform your cen-
tral station.
Tips for
Buying
Batteries
• Your system is designed to work with either Eveready Alkaline Energizer or Lithium bat-
teries according to the individual device. When replacing batteries, be sure to buy the
same brand and type. Do not replace the batteries with any other type. The reliability of
your security system depends on its batteries, and “no name” or generic brand batteries
may not provide the best quality and dependability.
• Use fresh batteries. Most batteries have a “best before” date printed on their packaging
or on the batteries themselves. Buy batteries that have a “best before” date of two
years or more from your purchase date.
• When disposing of used batteries, follow the instructions and precautions printed on
the batteries. Many cities and communities have collection sites or disposal services.
Contact your municipal offices for more information.
• If in doubt about the batteries used in your system, or if you have trouble installing
them, contact your installer for assistance.
Required Batteries
After Installing
New Batteries
After you change the batteries on your system, the system may display trouble conditions.
A zone tamper should be displayed for each detector that had batteries changed. A zone
fault may also be displayed for these detectors. Refer to
Checking Trouble Conditions
on page 16 for information on checking zone faults and zone tampers.
Be sure to perform a complete test of your system after new batteries are installed to ensure
that all detectors are working properly (see
Testing Your System
on page 18).
