The BIC controllers’ batteries can last up to 3 years when using good
quality AA alkaline batteries.
Actual battery life depends on the batteries sensitivity to temperature
variations the controller is exposed to, and to the number of valve
operations per day.
To ensure proper operation, it is recommended to regularly check the
batteries and replace them once the low battery indication starts flashing.
For replacing the batteries instructions see page??
In order not to reset the time and date settings the BIC controller is
designed to retain the current time settings for up to 60 seconds with the
batteries removed.
To change the batteries, see section 5.
Remark - in case the batteries are completely empty it is possible to
operate the valves manually (see the valve›s operating handle on page 5).
