Battery Replacement
To replace or install the batteries press on the battery carrier
and then release to allow the carrier to pop open. The battery
can then be pulled out of the carrier. When installing a new
battery into the carrier, make sure the battery terminals are
exposed and that the polarity matches the markings printed on
the battery carrier. Completely press the battery carrier down
into the alarm and release, the battery carrier will lock into the
closed position.
A missing or improperly installed battery will prevent the
battery carrier from closing and result in improper alarm
operation.

for one year under normal operating conditions.

Duracell
MN1604, MX1604

once a year, or at the same time you change your clocks for
daylight saving time.
