Safety Notice - Battery Replacement

The AXIS 221 uses a 3.0V CR2032 Lithium battery as the power

supply for its internal real-time clock (RTC). Under normal

conditions this battery will last for a minimum of 5 years. Low

battery power affects the operation of the RTC, causing it to reset

at every power-up. A log message will appear when the battery

needs replacing.

The battery should not be replaced unless required!

If the battery does need replacing, please observe the following:

• Danger of Explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced

• Replace only with the same or equivalent battery, as

recommended by the manufacturer.

• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's

instructions
