Battery Repacement

Coin cell battery tray

The Home Energy Manager Thermostat has a coin cell battery that retains the time during a power failure. Under normal circumstances the coin cell should last five years. Should the time need to be reset after a power failure, this is an indication that the coin cell needs to be replaced. You should replace the battery every five years, or before leaving home for an extended period.

Insert the coin cell battery in the coin cell battery tray and push it inside the battery cover assembly

The Home Energy Manager Thermostat is shipped from the factory with the coin cell installed. To keep the battery from discharging during shipment and storage, the Home Energy Manager Thermostat is shipped from the factory with a plastic tab inserted in the battery holder. This tab must be removed before the thermostat is mounted on the wall. Simply pull the plastic tab out of the thermostat. To replace the battery, remove the battery tray using a screw driver. Place a new coin cell (type CR2032 or equivalent) observing the correct polarity and push the battery tray into the battery cover assembly.
