BATTERY INSTALLATION AND ACTIVATION
Warning:
•Do not mix old and new batteries.
•Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon zinc), or rechargeable (nickel cadmium) batteries.
•For maximum performance in normal conditions we recommend using good quality alkaline batteries. When
temperatures are below 0°C, alkaline batteries can lose power resulting in a loss of remote transmission. If you
reside in an area that experiences frequent temperatures below freezing, we recommend using lithium  
batteries to minimize the loss of transmission.
