7. Care and Maintenance

7.1. Installing the battery

Your meter requires a 9 V 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 screws to open the back cover.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Place the battery into the insulation capsule.
5. Replace the back cover and secure it with the screws.
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.
