Replacing the Batteries
WARNING: To prevent ignition of a hazardous atmosphere, batteries
must only be changed in an area known to be
nonhazardous.
Replace the batteries when the battery icon indicates that
the unit is in low battery warning. When in low battery
warning, only the right most battery level indication bar is
displayed in the battery icon on the LCD, and the icon will be
flashing.
NOTE: Use AA size alkaline batteries MN1500 or PC1500 manufactured
by Duracell to maintain the CSA classification of the SC-01.
To Replace the Batteries
1. Verify that the SC-01 is off.
2. Rotate the captive quarter turn fastener in the battery cover a quarter
turn counterclockwise and lift up the end of the battery cover to remove
it. A coin may be used to rotate the fastener.
3. Carefully remove the old alkaline batteries.
4. Carefully install the new AA alkaline batteries. Follow the battery
diagram inside the battery compartment.
