REPLACING THE CONSOLE’S BATTERY

The console’s backup battery allows the system to work during a power out- age. A 9-volt alkaline battery provides at least 12 hours of backup. The BAT- TERY LOW indicator on the console lights when you need to replace the backup battery, but you should replace the battery at least once a year.

REPLACING THE REMOTES’ BATTERIES

If the console does not respond to a re- mote control’s signal, replace the re- mote control’s batteries, according to the polarity markings (+ and –) inside the battery compartment. After you re- place the remote control’s batteries, re-initialize the remote control as de- scribed in “Initializing the Keychain Re- mote Control” or “Initializing the Handheld Remote Control.”

Note: When you press a button on the keychain remote, its BATTERY indica- tor lights to show the battery is good.

After replacing batteries, follow these steps to confirm that the console still recognizes the remote control.

1.Set INSTALL/RUN 1/RUN 2 on the console to RUN 2.

2.Press ARM on the remote control.

If the system arms, the console recog- nized the remote control.

If the system did not arm:

1.Set INSTALL/RUN 1/RUN 2 to

INSTALL.

2.Press ARM on the remote control. The remote control transmits a random code to the console. The console acknowledges this with a beep and logs in the remote con- trol. If you do not hear a beep, press CODE with a pencil and then press ARM.
