Battery Information
Your pager is powered by a single AAA-size alkaline battery. Do not use any other battery type other than AAA alkaline.
When the battery is low, the pager will emit a low battery alert and the battery icon will flash. While the pager does have a lithium power source to protect data stored in memory, you should replace the battery immediately.
If the battery is not replaced the pager will shut down because the device cannot support normal operation. Messages and settings will be lost if the battery is not replaced immediately. However, protected messages will be saved.
WARNING - Use of a battery other than an Energizer E92 OR a Duracell MN2400, 1.5V AAA Alkaline Battery may affect the Intrinsic Safety UL rating of the device.

- Remove the old battery and insert a new battery so the polarity markings on the battery match the polarity diagram on the housing. Replace the battery door as shown by inserting the pair of battery door legs one after the other
