Maintenance
The only maintenance the Bird 4030 requires is occasional battery replacement. To replace the batteries:
Requirement: Three 3 volt Lithium cells, Bird P/N 5-1475-1, or equivalent
1. Hold the 4030 with both hands and “break off” the gold plated battery cup - it is a tight snap fit. Don't
try to pull the battery cup straight off! Do not lose the insulating sleeve that lines the cup.
2. Replace the three cells with their negative sides toward the bottom of the cup. Do note get finger
grease (skin oil) on the cells, the cup bottom, or the contacting spring. Wipe the contact surfaces
carefully with a clean cloth if necessary.
3. Snap the battery cup back on, then rotate it to assure proper seating.
