REPLACING THE BATTERY
PACK
If you follow the instructions in “Connect-
ing and Charging the Battery Pack” on
Page 7, the battery pack should last
about a year. If the battery pack does not
hold a charge for more than 2 hours after
an overnight charge, replace the battery
pack with a new 3.6 volt, 300 milliamp
battery pack with a connector that fits the
connector pins in the battery pack com-
partment. You can order a replacement
battery pack (RSU-10450971) through
your local RadioShack store.
Install the new battery pack as described
below, then charge the battery pack for
about 15 hours before you use it the first
time (see “Connecting and Charging the
Battery Pack” on Page 7).
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove
the screw on the battery compartment
cover on the remote keypad, then re-
move the cover.

2. Gently pull on the battery connector
to disconnect it, then remove the bat-
tery pack.
3. Slide the battery pack’s connector
onto the connector pins inside the
battery compartment and put the bat-
tery pack into the compartment.
4. Replace the cover and secure it with
the screw.
Cautions:
• You must use a replacement battery
pack of the required size and type.
• Be careful not to short the battery
pack by touching it with conducting
materials, such as rings, bracelets,
and keys. The battery pack or con-
ductor might overheat and burn.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack in
a fire because it might explode.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery
pack.
