Battery Safety Warning

This section on Battery Safety should be read in its entirety and its contents understood before handling or using

a rechargeable sealed lead‐acid battery. MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) are available upon request.

• Due to the potential energy stored in a sealed lead‐acid battery, improper handling or use of the battery

or failure to observe the precautions listed in this document may result in bodily injury caused by

electrolyte leakage, heat generation or explosion.

• USE ELECTRICALLY INSULATED TOOLS. Use of un‐insulated tools may cause a short circuit and the heat

or sparks generated by the short circuit can result in burns, damage to the battery, or an explosion.

Metallic tools may be insulated using vinyl or electrician's tape.

• When unpacking the battery, make sure to handle it gently. Rough handling may shock the battery,

causing damage. Check that the battery is free from cracks, fractures, or leakage.

• Be extremely careful not to drop the battery to avoid the possibility of serious injury.

If at any time you feel uncertain that you can follow these instructions or want to have the battery replaced by an

ADT service technician, contact the ADT Customer Experience Department at 800 653‐9111 and schedule a

service appointment. In most cases, ADT's standard service charge will apply.

If you choose to replace the battery yourself, contact ADT at 800 653‐9111 to have a replacement battery sent to

you or you can purchase one at a local battery supply store. If there is a lock on the control panel door and you

do not have a key, inform the ADT Customer Experience Representative and a key will be sent to you.

Please test your system monthly. Place your system on test by calling 800 653‐9111.
