Hello

I hope someone can help me.....

We have the above alarm and I need to change the battery, however I can't find the instructions (I filed them very safely, that safely that I can't find them !!!)

I am stuggling to get the front off the contol panel to see what battery I need.

Can anyone advise as I am starting to panic in this bad weather if the electricity goes off my alarm will be driving me and everyone else on the street mad.

Many thanks

Hi ,

You are not trying to get the cover off the keypad are you??.

The battery is in the end station , a big box usually metal , sometimes plastic , about A4 size , usually under the stairs .The metal one has 4 screws , straight forward.

There was a plastic version with keypad onboard.

Beware as dangerous / lethal voltages exist in the end station.When you remove the cover , the tamper alarm should activate, put your user code in to cancel.

Regards
