Battery removal/installation

battery.

and system setting are lost and will need to be individually
reentered. The battery should last for approximately
5 years.
4. Before inserting a new CR-2032 battery make sure the
polarity is correct.
Insert the battery such that the (+) side of the battery is
towards the top of the battery holder (this is also towards the
center of the CountIR.
