The Remote Control Panel Indicator (RCPI) is designed to be powered by a single Duracell PX28L 6
volt lithium battery, or equivalent. Alkaline batteries, such as Eveready A 544, or equivalent may also be
used. Under normal operating conditions, the lithium battery must be replaced every 10 years. The alka-
line batteries must be replaced every 5 years. If the ELT is activated for an unknown period of time, the
battery must be replaced. For additional information see the ACK Technologies Inc. Model E-04 ELT
Installation/Operation Manual, Section 4.
NOTE: The Audio Annunciator Battery should be checked and replaced at
the same time. (See “ELT Audio Alert Indicator Battery Replace-
ment” on page 13-52.)
1. Remove the overhead console bezel and overhead console mount. (See “Overhead Console
Component Replacement” on page 13-15.)

to the RCPI and orange audio alert indicator, then remove the bracket and remove the RCPI.
