# Remove the new power supply from the housing. Apply a thin layer of lithol lubricant using a syringe to two contacts. The lubricant should not get onto the center of the contact (Lithol lubricant serves as a barrier and protects against the compound flowing onto conductive contacts).

# Preparing the compound for filling the power source. To do this, you need to: - open the jar with component A (Fig. 5) and the bottle with component B (Fig. 6) - pour the contents of the bottle with component B into the jar with component A; - mix the two components for at least 2 minutes;[[File:2-component compound from the repair kit.png|frameless]] | [[File:TD-BLE older design installed battery.png|frameless]] | ||
# Fill the power source with compound at the same level as the previous layer of compound, then leave it in the open air for at least 15 minutes. Do not leave areas of the power source unflooded!
