MAINTENANCE

INTERCOM MAINTENANCE
Bug ingress is a common issue in unit failures. Ensure that all components are sealed accordingly and check occasionally. (Do not open the panel in the rain / snow unless correctly equipped to keep the internals dry. Ensure the unit is securely closed after maintenance)

SIM MAINTENANCE
If using a prepay casual SIM card it will need topped up occasionally. It is recommended to advise the home owner / end user to register the SIM card on the provider’s web site if available. Most major networks allow registration of card payment details for an auto top up feature, which means they will automatically top up your intercom when the balance runs low or in some cases, they offer a low balance reminder to be sent if they do not wish the auto top up feature.
