ment (9).

!RISK OF DEATH!
Rechargeable batteries must not be used!
Do not leave flat batteries in the device. Even batteries protected against leaking can corrode and
thus release chemicals which are detrimental to your health or destroy the device.
Do not leave batteries lying around carelessly. They could be swallowed by children or pets. If
swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
Remove the batteries if the device is not used for a longer period of time to prevent leaking.
Leaky or damaged batteries may cause caustic burns if they come into contact with skin. There-
fore, you should use suitable protective gloves.
Make sure that batteries are not short-circuited. Do not throw batteries into fire.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Mixing fully charged batteries and half-full batteries
reduces battery life. Always use batteries of the same type and manufacturer in a set of batteries.
Batteries can be damaged by equalizing currents and may leak.
Batteries must not be recharged or dismantled. There is danger of explosion.
You can order suitable alkaline batteries stating the following order no.:
Item no. 652506 (please order six).
Only use alkaline batteries. They are powerful and long-lasting.
d) Checking the batteries
The insulation tester ET-100 allows you to check the battery voltage anytime. Switch the measuring device to the
"600 V~" measuring range. After about 3 seconds, the small display at the bottom right shows the current battery
voltage. At a voltage of <7.5 V the battery replacement symbol starts flashing automatically.
