6. MAINTENANCE
Other than the fuse and the batteries, the instrument contains no
parts that could be replaced by a person who is not trained and certified.
Any non-certified work, or replacement of a part by an "equivalent", might
gravely impair safety.
6.1 CLEANING
Wipe the transmitter with a cloth dampened with clean water or with a neutral
detergent, then wipe dry with a dry cloth.
Do not use the device again until it is completely dry.
6.2 REPLACING THE BATTERIES
If the dead battery symbol on the screen blinks (on the transmitter or on the
receiver) and the buzzer emits a warning, the battery(ies) must be replaced.
Proceed as follows to replace the battery(ies) (of the transmitter or of the
receiver):
Switch the device off and disconnect it from all circuits being measured;
Unscrew the screw on the back of the device and remove the cover of the
battery compartment
Remove the dead (battery(ies);
Install the new battery(ies); watch out for the polarity;
Put the cover of the battery compartment back in place and screw the screw
back in.
Checking the fuse of the transmitter
The fuse of the transmitter protects it from overloads and from operator errors. If
the fuse has blown, the transmitter can transmit only weak signals.
If the self-test of the transmitter is OK and the signal transmitted is weak,
transmission functions but the fuse has blown. If no signal is transmitted during
the self-test, and if the battery voltage is normal, the transmitter is damaged and
must be repaired by specialized technicians.
