First of all, I'm a bit embarrassed I cannot figure this out myself. I have looked up Youtube videos, Google searched but I didn't find any exact video.

Plus I have tried pressing it hard, lifting but it seems very hard - just hurts my thumb. I don't want to call an electrician or tell my landlord but I can't sleep with this chirp going on as well. Can anyone help?

    There's a possibility of a pin that keeps the battery hatch "locked". (It's a landlord thing where they don't want tenants tampering.) Commented Mar 27, 2020 at 22:57
  • Where can that pin be?

  • Also, looking at the manual if there was a pin - I wouldn't have been able to turn and remove it.

Push the tab toward the arrow and then lift it up. Good luck

  • How can I tell the model number of this? Btw, I tried pushing the tab but it just doesn't move or shift.

  • Does it also mean the whole alarm should have been replaced by 2014?

  • yes, they are good for 10 years and then need to be replaced. It's about the sensor life span. Just replace it
