Anyone here having experience with the Mares Quad Air, that knows how to check battery status on the tank module?

When diving, I get a low battery warning icon on the computer, but when checking it at home, the battery status, as shown under Info in the computer menu, tells me it is OK and show a full battery icon.

Could the low battery warning be referring to the tank module, or does the tank module not transmit that information? In that case, how, do I check the tank module's battery status without having to pay a certified technician to take it apart?
 
I don't have any experience with that specific model, but the MH8A transmitters used with a number of other brands do transmit a low battery warning, so it stands to reason that Mares transmitter would do the same. Looking at the manual, the battery replacement procedure is fairly straightforward - it's slightly more complex than MH8A, which has just a simple cap that you unscrew with a random flat object, but still, it's just a pair of philips-head screws and an o-ring; you don't need a certified technician to handle that.
