Hello, twist and pull remove from wall. Pull out the sliding door. With small flat blade screwdriver pick or pry the batteries out. I see it looks like a tight fit. I hope this helps.

Like Jot said, there is a small compartment that holds the two AA batteries. I sometimes have trouble getting it to slide out. Try applying some downward pressure while pulling on it. Another thing would be the pin. There is a lockout pin that came with the detector that is designed to keep the battery compartment from being opened. If it is in it, you would need to remove it before the compartment is opened. I don't use the pins myself because I change the batteries twice a year.

The cover twists away from the base that holds it to the wall; just hold on to the unit and twist and it will come off. Then, there is a small pull-out compartment just above the button you push to test the batteries and you just put your finger into the indent and pull it out. Hope that helps!

If mounted properly on the wall or ceiling, turn the unit counter clockwise (about 1/3 turn) until the unit separates from the screw-mounted base. This unit uses two (2) size AA batteries which are housed inside the unit in a pull out "drawer" located on the side of the unit directly above the "F" in the name 'First Alert' printed on the face of the unit. The pull out drawer has a little rounded bulge allowing for you to use a finger to pull open the drawer. It sometimes sticks a bit. Best way is, using your left hand hold the unit, and with your right hand pull straight out the little plastic drawer holding the two AA-sized batteries. After replacing the batteries, and closing the drawer the unit will emit a loud beep telling you the fresh batteries are positioned correctly.

Remove the Rubber protector (yellow color), you will find the battery compartment cover at the back, unscrew and replace the battery

I couldn't figure it out either. The instruction sheet is hidden between the paperboard insert in the packaging. The gridded panel on the underside slides over and comes off revealing the battery covers.

Very easy to remove the batteries. Just open the cover and remove the battery.

The instructions I have says 'to change the battery, reomove the screws on the underside of the top to remove the battery cover'. 'Only use Ni-MH or NiCd rechargeable batteries'. I hope this helps....

Carefully pull the rubber off the assembly. It comes off easily just has to be easy with it. Take a very small screw driver or a Pin. Turn the light up side down. At the rear side (side opposite of the bulbs) You can see a small locking clip. Push slightly outward it opens. Replace the battery. Close and reinstall the rubber cover

I have one battery and mine is tough to remove as well. Try lubricating the area.

There are 2 knobs beneath the adjustment dials on the left and right. Push them to the inside and assembly comes out. Turn over and gentle push out on the top and bottom of the outer frame to release inside assembly and allow it to be pushed up and out of outer frame. The battery cover is on the lower right had side and pulls down and then swings out.

I had the same problem and couldn't remember how to get the battery out. The unit separates at the point where the light gray meets the darker gray. Just pull hard enough at that point and the battery compartment will pull out. What probably happens is that it gets residue on the plastic or age just causes it to become more difficult due to not opening it frequently. If you pull hard enough, it will open. It is a single AAA battery that is needed.

To replace the batteries, you'd need to remove the protective holster/cover 1st.

Turn the blue piece on the bottom counter-clockwise, it will come off. You'll need a small phillips-head screwdriver to remove the cover from the battery compartment. Be careful not to lose the rubber o-ring under the battery cover. It requires an LR-44 battery.

On the front of the unit, right side, unscrew (counter clockwise) with allen wrench (I forget what size). batteries are inside. Insert three 394 size button cells positive side facing you. Replace cover.

Unscrew the nipples off. There are two clips on the side of it. Pull them out & up dont pull too hard they will snap. The top should come off and thats how you change the batteries

The battery cover is screwed in. It is closed with a single small screw and you would need a small screwdriver to open/close it.

Use a flat bladed screwdriver against the wire connector to slide it off the battery. A few light taps should get it going.

With your finger slide down the bottom cover , remove it by lifting the cover. You will see the batteries
