Safety Notice - Battery Replacement
The AXIS 213 uses a 3.0V CR2032 Lithium battery as the
power supply for its internal real-time clock (RTC). This
battery will, under normal conditions, last for a minimum
of 5 years. Low battery power affects the operation of the
RTC, causing it to reset at every power-up. A log message
will appear when battery replacement is required. The
battery should not be replaced unless required! If the
battery does need replacing, please observe the following
points:
• Caution! Danger of Explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced
• Replace only with the same or equivalent battery, as
recommended by the manufacturer.
• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
