When there is a low bat. sign comes up it is time to change batteries. Slide out the small portion of the cover, three dot like for hold, on left side where batteries are located. 1.55 volts 2 AAA bat. Refer to page 12 of operating instructions.

On the front of the cuff to the right of the "M" button there are three dots/ impressions to the left of the Pulse words. Press gently on the the 3 dots/ impressions and push out. It will open the compartment where the batteries are.

Only the monitor uses batteries.... Rechargeable batteries come with the set. Two power adapters came with mine; one for the camera.... which has to run on electrical power, not batteries, and one to recharge the batteries in the hand-held monitor.... they last about 8 - 9 hours between recharging when new..... less as they age..... way less if you don't let them discharge almost completely before recharging. The two power adapters are two-blade 120 volt items that came with mine.... may be different if delivered overseas, I don't know. The monitor unit will run on alkaline batteries when you need to.

You probably have to reset it by removing batteries and display will start from scratch.

Hi,The turtlemeter that i bought brought the instructions but is really easy. You just have to push down the LCD and then you have to remove 8 very little screws. After that you replace the battery and put the lcd back in.

There is a replaceable battery (BLC-2 lithium ion) in the monitor, but I don't see any way to replace a battery in the camera. The only removable part I see is the magnetic stand/holder on the bottom. Could be that a battery compartment is under that but I haven't tried it. The batteries seem to last a long time. The last time I charged them was this summer and they are still working fine - keep them in my truck and it has been down in the 20s several times this fall. Hope this helps.

I don't know about the monitor having a timer but Windows has a timer. check it at Control Panel, display, screen saver, power, power schemes.

You change the battery, I got mine cheap from Amazon also, my first battery lasted 5 months of constant use

I would no rush to replace the power adapter just yet. If you can-try a similar power adapter with the same power and plug. IF you have one you can try it and see if the monitor fires up. If you have a compatible battery you can also try that. Normally the power adapter is OK. It is probably the monitor itself. I have never found a defective power adapter in all of my 52 years. I have seen circuit boards that are faulty on new products. If all else fails-ask the gift giver to exchange it for you.

I have a Summer Best View monitor that is about 3 years old. I replaced the batteries when they died with Duracell Rechargeable NiMH batteries. They came in a pack of 4 and I found them in stock at Best Buy. I still have to recharge them every day but they work fine. Hope this helps.

You cant, unless you take them out. I just keep back up batteries from the dollar store. You could keep t the back cover off and take them out. I only replace every 4-6 months.

You don't....just replace the old battery with the fresh one...it will take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours. It may seem like it is a dud, but give time and hopefully, it recharges as expected (30-days to return if you suspect it to be a real dud). My replacement took about 30 some hours to be fully charged. In the mean time, I kept getting some odd codes from on my Ademco panel. Once sufficiently charged, the codes went away. Oh, yeah, after sufficiently charged, it gave me a code that my battery in the motion sensor also needed to be replaced. My old battery and the motion sensor battery lasted more than six years.

That is the only way to change battery is to get the screws out. I haven't had to change mine yet, but you need to get the cover off. Try to make sure you have the right screwdriver to fit so you don't strip the screws.

You just let it sit for awhile and just goes off. How it does it I do not know. As for the batteries - I had another one of these for at least 8 years and I never had to worry about the batteries. In fact, I do not know where the batteries are, or how to change them.

The indentation on the top above the logo slides away from the black button. That's where you change the batteries.

I haven't had it long enough to replace the batteries. Generally, most electronic equipment holds information such as date / time for short periods when bateries are removed. If not, is easily reset through the menu sequence. Sorry unsble to be of more help. Tony

This depends on so many things, including how much load the computer/monitors/etc. are taking, and how old the battery is. A nice thing about this model is that it has a digital readout which will tell you how many minutes. Generally, it will be a few minutes only.

I have mine pluged in to the wall at all times. When the monitor is fully charged it will last 6 hours.
