Never touch the metal surface of the battery with bare fingers.
The two battery poles must never be short circuited.
Procedure:
To replace the battery you need a Phillips screwdriver and a clean cloth.
• A leaking transmitter cap may lead to the destruction of the transmitter by
water seeping in or cause the transmitter to switch off without prior notice.
• Always open the transmitter in a dry and clean environment.
• Only open the transmitter to replace the battery.
1. Remove the transmitter from the HP outlet of the first stage of the regulator.
2. Dry the transmitter with a soft towel.
3. Remove the 3 screws with the Phillips screwdriver.
4. Remove the transmitter cap carefully.
5. Remove the transmitter cap o-ring carefully. Do not damage the sealing surfaces.
6. Remove the battery by holding it on both sides. Do not touch the contacts or electronic
parts.
Protect the environment and dispose the battery properly.
If you notice traces of seeping water, damages, or other defects on the
o-ring, do not use the transmitter for further dives. Take it to an authorized
SCUBAPRO UWATEC dealer for check and repair.
7. Always insert a new o-ring when you replace the battery and dispose the old o-ring.
Make sure that the new, lubricated o-ring is in perfect condition, and that o-ring, o-ring groove and
the sealing surfaces of HP outlet and transmitter cap are free of dust and dirt.
If necessary, clean the parts with a soft cloth. Fit the o-ring in the o-ring groove.
8. Check the proper polarity of the battery. The transmitter can be damaged
if you do not insert the battery correctly.
Wait for at least 30 seconds. Now insert the new battery, with "+" pointing upwards, into the battery
compartment.
9. After battery replacement the transmitter will perform an automatic test and switch into ready mode
after 60 seconds.
