How is the battery secured? Via a screw or a push button/latch. I want to prevent a curious toddler from opening it up.

It's a latch kind with no screw. It seems pretty hard for a toddler to open but I don't have a toddler yet so I may be underestimating their craftiness. I love it for my infants car seat.

A notch in a latch opening. Part that can be used as a stand has to be fully extended to access opening.

Neither. It is very secure as I have difficulty myself getting it open; it takes some finesse, but worth it to keep my toddler from the batteries. I still love this product & this is our 2nd summer with it!

The battery compartment on mine is actually quite easy to open. I can just slip my nails in the crack at the top back and push slightly and it slips right off. You could also use the tip of a butter knife or something similar to slip in the crack and nudge it open, then it will simply slide off. To get it back on, make sure you line up the top up level and slide it right up through the little plastic "holders" that are on both sides.

There is a knob that screws on through the bars of the crib. It is very secure, until they can reach it and pull it down.

Battery doors are in bottom. There are 2, one set on each side. There is push clip on front side of door,,,just push it toward middle, while pulling up simultaneously. Just a fingernail in slot should do it easily. Mine were so loose, I have to put scotch tape over the retaining clip on the door, or the batteries fall out while in use.

Fill the key hole with glue... but that will render it useless for you too... because it's a key hole entry any lock picking method is likely to work (although paper clip is dubious). This safe is not to secure the device from being stolen, a thief can simply pick it up take it home and break into it at their leisure. This safe is stop your children from getting access to a weapon or valuables that you don't want them to have access to.If you want something truly secure, get a floor safe you can bolt to the floor, weighs hundreds of pounds and has no key access.

Think everyone has this problem. Below the display is a small button like protrusion, push in on that and, volia, the battery door opens on the other side. The plus side of the battery goes down in the holder. You'll love this guage, it works great.

I just went & opened mine, just to be sure. It was a piece of cake. Open the safe, push down the tab at the top of the battery compartment & pull it out & down. It's pretty simple. It catches at the top & the bottom just has a slot it sits in.

There's a hole in the housing on one side of the battery, and a door that swings open on the other side. You just push the battery through the door using a paper clip, install the new battery, and close the door.

Like Jot said, there is a small compartment that holds the two AA batteries. I sometimes have trouble getting it to slide out. Try applying some downward pressure while pulling on it. Another thing would be the pin. There is a lockout pin that came with the detector that is designed to keep the battery compartment from being opened. If it is in it, you would need to remove it before the compartment is opened. I don't use the pins myself because I change the batteries twice a year.

I have had no problems removing the battery. Make sure you are pulling it from the right side. As the picture shows from the top. If you try from the bottom it has a latch and its impossible to remove from that end. Hope this helps. G.

There are actually two "knobs". One side has the twisting lock like you see in the picture; the other side has a hole to insert the tool that is used in case the knob is inadvertently locked from the other side. To keep the toddler in, you would just install it with the side you see in the picture facing out, and the other side (the side with the hole) on the inside of the room.

I was stumped too at first. The battery cover is under the handle. Just lift it a bit and you'll see the edges of the battery cover. I remember it sliding off, although it's been a while.

I believe it's like a small latch that slides down to lock it in to place. We don't use it. Everything is snapped together her through screen. We love it!

there is a key included with the safe to open it in case the battery dies. Just don't lose the key!

we figured it out! in the very front of the train on the top there is what looks like a hole but if you look in it, you see a tiny screw. you need a tiny screwdriver and then you unscrew and lift and it takes 2 AAA batteries!

I am assuming you are asking about the battery compartment. The two little screw need to be open at 90 deg angle. There should be a pick of a lock to should which direction to lock and unlock
