NOTE: QuietCare sensors are not interchangeable; each sensor must be placed back in its original bottom
bracket for the role to which it is assigned. It is a good practice to change batteries one sensor at a time to
ensure that each sensor is placed back in its proper place.
Complete the following steps to replace sensor batteries.
1. Remove the sensor from the bottom
bracket:
 Grip the bottom portion of the sensor
and bracket.
 With your other hand, twist the top
portion of the sensor clockwise, and pull
top portion of sensor up and out of the
bottom bracket.
If you are having difficulty removing the sensor,
see Using Groove Joint Pliers on page 44.
2. Change the batteries:
 Place the batteries into the sensor,
ensuring that the batteries are properly
oriented.
 Check that the green LED flashes after
replacing the battery
 In newer versions of the hardware, the
LED will blink steadily for about 45
seconds, this is normal.
3. Place the sensor back in the bottom bracket:
 Grip the bottom portion of the sensor
and bracket.
 With your other hand, place the top
portion of the back in the bottom
bracket, and turn it counter-clockwise to
close. (The center seam of the top
portion of the sensor should be aligned
with the same seam on the bottom
bracket portion of the sensor.)
4. Properly dispose of batteries:
a. Check your state battery recycling
laws on proper disposal methods for
alkaline and lithium batteries
b. It is important not to dispose of large
amounts of alkaline batteries in a
group. Used batteries are often not
completely "dead." Grouping used
batteries together can bring these
"live" batteries into contact with one
another, creating safety risks.
c. Proven cost-effective and
environmentally safe recycling
processes are not yet universally
available for alkaline and lithium
