How do i change the battery on my optima xl6 alarm?
Hi ,when the power went off at home my optima xl6 alarm came back on but the buttons would not respond,all lights are on though. I have since found out the battery needs replacing(well its 15 years old). i want to change the battery but need to know how to do this without setting off the alarm and if there is also a battery in the bell.
Regards Ken
we have the same problem I have ordered a new battery but what is the enginneers code? my husband has disconected the bell outside.
