How to change battery in Novas Smart Lock

You will receive a notification when your battery drops to 25% and again at 21%.

It is highly recommended that you replace the battery when first notified at 25%. Replacing the battery will not affect the information stored in the lock.

You will need 1 x CR2 Battery (900mAh recomended) and a small Phillips screw driver. 

Open the door and remove the 2 x small Phillips screws that secures the battery cover faceplate (per image below) 

Pull out the old battery and place in the new, ensuring the positive end of the battery is orientated correctly (positive towards the center of the Smart Lock). 

Replace the small seal, then replace the steel cover. Please check operation before closing the door.
