FTB-1

Replacing Batteries

Replacing Batteries

Your unit uses batteries with built-in protection that have been especially
designed for EXFO. For this reason, you can only replace the main battery
with a battery designed for your FTB-1.
You can purchase new batteries and empty battery compartments (also
known as “battery covers”) from EXFO.

The main lithium-ion battery is offered in two sizes:

A four-cell (small) battery

An eight-cell (large) battery

Note: Since the battery must fit in the battery compartment, these compartments

are also offered in two sizes.

Note: Batteries and battery compartments are sold separately, which means you

can purchase extra batteries to use with a battery compartment that you
already have. The size of the battery must match the size of the
compartment.

To remove the main battery:
1.
Turn off the unit.

2. Remove the battery compartment (located next to the module) as

follows:
