12. Changing the batteries
When used normally the batteries in sensors and remote controls last about a year. The life span of batteries does depend on how often a sensor is activated.
Preferably use alkaline batteries, but never rechargeable batteries (rechargeable batteries are not strong enough and will go flat within a few months, even when they are seldom used).
Console – 4xAA batteries
The emergency batteries in the console ensure that even during a power cut the entire system stays operational for another 12 hours (if there is no alarm).
•If there is an alarm during a power cut, the console will not activate the siren to save battery power. The telephone dialler works normally.
•If there is a power cut and the emergency batteries are flat, all settings are stored, because these are programmed into a non- volatile memory (EEPROM). The clock will need to be reset.
•When you decide to turn off the security system for a longer period (e.g. renovation work), remove the batteries from the console to avoid them going flat.
•If the emergency batteries are empty or not installed, the BATTERY indicator on the console will flash.
•If you open up the battery compartment to change the batteries, the word ‘TAMPER’ will be visible on the display. After inserting the batteries and closing the compartment, enter your PIN code (factory settings 0000, see 8.3) to remove the word ‘TAMPER’.
