Step-by-step—How to replace the battery

1. Start by prying the bottom part of the casing from the side with two hooks, using a small flat head screwdriver or some similar tool. Do not use too much force, so as not to not break the casing
2. After you open the casing you will see the beacon's PCB board and the battery.
3. Now you can replace your battery and put the casing back together. It is easier to start from the side with two hooks like while disassembling it.
