from all measuring circuits. Remove all measuring lines from
your meter. Switch off the DMM.
- Loosen the rear screw at the battery compartment lid (12)
with a matching Phillips screwdriver. Remove the battery
compartment lid from the device.

Connect the battery clip to the battery in the correct polarity.
Observe the polarity as indicated in the battery compartment.
- Close the casing carefully again.
