2.4 Parent Unit Battery Installation
You can power up the parent unit by connecting it to AC power or to the
rechargeable battery provided. Even if the parent unit is connected to
AC power, we recommend you also install the battery. This guarantees
continual operation in case of a power outage.
Install the battery as shown below.
With the label THIS SIDE UP facing up, insert the small tabs of the
battery into the slots inside the battery compartment. Make sure the
metallic contact is correctly oriented as shown below. Push the battery
into the battery compartment until it clicks securely into place.
Align the battery compartment cover at against the battery
compartment, then slide it towards the center of the parent unit until
it clicks into place.
