Battery Replacement
Kaye recommends replacing the battery when there is 10% battery life remaining. The battery
percentage indicator (text color) is based on the battery percentage value, between
0%-19% in Red, 20% to 49% in Orange, and 50% to 100% in Green.
Battery replacement is a three-step process involving:
• Removing the Existing O-ring and Battery
• Installing the Replacement O-ring and Battery
• Resetting the Battery Odometer
Open the Logger and Remove the Existing O-ring and Battery
WARNING! To ensure that the Logger maintains its waterproof and pressure-tight seal,
a thin coat of grease was applied to the O-ring. The grease material is
KRYTOX GL-203, and safe handling and storage practices should be
followed. KRYTOX is a registered trademark of DuPont Chemicals. Material
Safety Data information is available from DuPont Chemicals.
ATTENTION ! Pour garantir que le Logger conserve son étanchéité à l'eau et à la
pression, une fine couche de graisse a été appliquée sur le joint torique.
La graisse est du KRYTOX GL-203, et des pratiques de manipulation et de
stockage sûres doivent être suivies. KRYTOX est une marque déposée de
