6. Battery Replacement

The LED indicator light is powered by a replaceable battery. If the light dims or stops working, follow these steps to replace it:

2. Locate the old battery. Note its orientation, distinguishing between the positive and negative terminals.
3. Insert the new battery (typically a CR2025 or similar coin cell battery) in the correct orientation.
4. Finally, replace the top cover, ensuring it snaps or screws back into place securely.
