IMPORTANT NOTE: To extend the life of the battery, fully charge the battery prior to
installation. A system using solar panels may not fully charge the battery. Additionally, a fast
charge, which the solar panel cannot provide, will improve the life of the battery.
To recharge a battery, a quick charge will remove buildup in the battery much more
effectively than a trickle charge. A battery slowly drained by low light conditions on a solar-
charged system or sitting in storage will be less likely to recover than a battery that was
quickly discharged from a short. Store batteries in a cool environment for less drainage.

Replace the lithium battery
The lithium battery maintains the operation of the real-time clock. It is important to monitor the state
of the battery to avoid interruption to the clock backup.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In contrast with previous device generations, the real-time clock
backup does not stop immediately after the battery stops working. The clock continues to
operate for 24 to 36 hours. Do not remove power when replacing the battery.
To replace the battery:
Open the enclosure door.
Locate the lithium battery on the bottom left-hand corner of the electronic board.
Remove the lithium battery cover from the battery bracket by inserting the blade of a
slotted screwdriver between the cover and the side of the bracket.
Grasp the battery on each side and pull from the bracket. The positive end of the battery is
at the bottom end of the bracket.
Insert the new lithium battery into the bracket with the positive end of the battery down.
Reinsert the battery cover.
