BatteryReplacement



WARNING:Toavoidelectricalshock,removethetestleads,disconnectthemeterfrom

anycircuitandturnOFFthemeterbeforeopeningthecase.Donotoperatewithanopencase.

BatteryReplacement

Whenthelowbatteryicon  appearsontheLCD,thebatteriesmustbereplaced.Several

hoursofaccuratereadingsarestillpossibleinthiscondition;however,batteriesshouldbe

replacedassoonaspossible:

Removethecoverfromtherearofthemeter.

Replacetheone(1)9Vbatteryobservingpolarity.

Replacethebatterycompartmentcover.

Note:ThemetercanalsobepoweredbyaDC9VPowerAdapter.Themeterwillbepermanently

poweredONwhentheDCadapterisusedasthepowersupply(thepowerbuttonfunctionis

disabled).



Safety:Pleasedisposeofbatteriesresponsibly;neverdisposeofbatteriesinafire,batteriesmay

explodeorleak.Ifthemeterisnottobeusedfor60daysormore,removethebatteryandstore

separately.



Neverdisposeofusedbatteriesorrechargeablebatteriesinhouseholdwaste.
