7. Care and Maintenance
7.1. Installing the battery
Your meter requires a 9V battery for power. The battery
symbol appears when the battery voltage drops to the
certain limits. For proper operation, replace the battery as
soon as possible. Continued use with a low battery will lead
to abnormal readings.
Warning!
To avoid electric shock, disconnect both test leads from
equipment before you remove or install the battery.
Follow these steps to install the battery:
1. Turn off the power and disconnect the two test leads.
2. Remove the screw to open the battery cover.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Place the battery into the battery compartment.
5. Replace the battery cover and secure it with the screw.
WARNING! Do not operate the meter until you replace the
battery and close the battery compartment cover.
Notes:
Never leave a weak or dead battery in your meter. Even a
leakproof battery can leak damaging chemicals. When you
are not going to use your meter for a week or more, remove
the battery.
