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 certain limits. For correct operation,
replace the battery as soon as possible. Continued use with a low battery
will lead to errors in readings.

you remove or install the battery.
Follow these steps to install the battery.
1. Turn off the power and disconnect all test leads.
2.
Remove the 2 screws to open the battery compartment.
3.
Remove the battery.
4.
Place the battery into the insulation capsule.
5.
Replace the battery cover and secure it with the screws.
WARNING!
Do not discard the provided battery insulation capsule. If you do not use
this insulation capsule properly, it might cause damage or injury.
WARNING!
Do not operate the meter until you replace the battery and close the
battery compartment cover.
