14. Charging The Battery

This instrument has an internal rechargeable battery.

Only use the supplied battery charger to charge it.

To avoid safety issues, do not connect to a device to test or use

while re-charging the battery.

However,  the internal  circuitry will disconnect the measuring and

testing circuitry while charging, it is recommended to make sure that

no test leads are connected while charging the internal battery.

Do not try to by pass that circuit, or warranty will be void.

The battery has a maximum life of about one or 2 years, depending

of its maintenance.

Only replace with the same type of battery.

&REMEMBER TO CHARGE THE BATTERY! 

ALWAYS recharge the battery when the Low Battery info appears 

on the LCD. Leaving the battery uncharged for a long period of 

time may affect the lifespan of the battery. 

Charing interral:  Every 3 months 

15. Fuse Replacement

REPLACING THE POTENTIAL FUSE 

The P

fuse mean it's the Potential Fuse. 

The Potential Measurement Circuit of this instrument is fuse 

protected. 

Only replace with the same type as the original fuse. 

The Potential Fuse is S00mA Slow Blow type. 

EPLACING THE CURRENT FUSE 

The C

fuse mean it's the Current Fuse. 

The Current Injection Circuit of this instrument is fuse protected. 

Only replace with the same type as the original fuse. 

The Current Fuse is 2A Slow Blow type.
