Belt Clip Assembly:1. Remove the tear away cap from the clear plastic housing.2. Break off the plastic tab that is permanently affixed to the top of the clearplastic housing of the pendant.3. Snap on the belt clip cap.4. Put the battery into the pendant (please see ‘Replacing the Battery’ for properorientation).5. Insert the clear plastic housing into the rubber bootTesting the WLS918The pendant should be tested on a weekly basis along with the rest of the alarmsystem. For full system testing instructions, please consult your control panelInstruction Manual.To Test the Pendant:1. Begin testing when your system is in the ready state and the keypad Ready(Green) light is ON.2. Press and hold either of the 2 buttons for 5 seconds. When the button hasbeen held long enough the LED in the pendant will turn ON steady for 2seconds. Once the test transmission signal from the pendant has beenreceived by the alarm system and the pendant’s battery condition is normal,the Ready light of the keypad will turn OFF for approx. 5 seconds.3. If the pendant’s battery is low, the keypad Trouble (yellow) Light will turn ONand a series of continuous keypad beeps will be heard.Signals will not be received and processed if the pendant is not withinrange of the alarm system.When the WLS918 has a low battery, it will flash the LED once every 10seconds until the battery is replaced.When the unit detects a low battery, it will flash the LED once every 10seconds until the battery is replaced.Activating an AlarmAn alarm can be generated via the WLS918 in a few different ways:1.

You can do thisby placing your fingernails in between the top of the rubber boot and thebottom of the plastic cap then pull up on the plastic and down on the boot toseparate them.2. Remove the plastic battery cover at the bottom of the plastic housing.3. Pull out the old lithium battery.4. Insert the new lithium battery ensuring that the negative side of the batteryfaces the green PCB (printed circuit board).5. Replace the battery cover.6. Insert the clear plastic housing back into the rubber boot.7. Test the WLS918 as per the testing instructions. Only use battery type FDK CR2032 as a replacement for this product. The polarity of the batteries must be observed, as shown in thediagram above. Improper handling of lithium batteries may result inheat generation, explosion or fire, which may lead to personal injuries.WARNING: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERIES ARE INSTALLEDINCORRECTLY. REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPERECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER.Keep away from small children. If batteries are swallowed, promptly see a doctor.Do not try to recharge these batteries. Disposal of used batteries must be made inaccordance with the waste recovery and recycling regulations in your area.+F D KLITHIUM BATTERYCR20323V+F D KLITHIUM BATTERYCR20323V+
