This system needs no specific maintenance beyond remote
control battery replacement. The remote is powered by a 1.5V
AAA battery.
Low Battery Notification
If the battery is low (and this feature is programmed On) the 2-
way remote will emit 2 long beeps 5-seconds after a transmission
is completed. The 2 long beeps will repeat every 25 seconds up to
3 times (or until a 2-way remote button is pressed).
Battery Replacement
Gently pull the end of the battery door away from the top of the
remote control then slide the door up to expose the battery and
remove the expired battery. Place the new battery into the remote
control observing the correct polarity. When power is returned
the remote control will light all icons and generate melodies
(representing all beeper tones).
