Care of your Peak Atlas DCA Pro
Your DCA Pro should provide many years of service if
used in accordance with this user guide. Care should be

abuse.
Battery Replacement
The battery should be replaced at least every 12 months to reduce the risk of
leak damage.

battery is required.
To replace the battery: place the DCA Pro face-down on a smooth surface,
remove the 3 screws, remove the rear cover and change the battery while the
unit is still resting face down.

Replace the cover (take care not to pinch the test cables) and carefully tighten
the 3 screws. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN THE SCREWS.
