Chapter 5: Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Inserting Batteries

The meter uses two alkaline 1.5V (AAA) batteries. Batteries will normally last for
more than 2000 tests. Other types of 1.5V (AAA) batteries are also acceptable, but
the capacity of test times may differ. Insert the batteries when you first use the
meter or replace with new batteries when the "LP" (low power) message and the
low battery symbol appear on the display.

Note:
1. The meter won’t delete earlier records after you replace batteries.
2. You should reset the time and date again after you replace the batteries. See Section "Setting

the time and date" in Chapter 1.

3. 1.5V (AAA) x 2 batteries are available at most stores. You may take the old batteries with you

for replacement.

4. Remove batteries when you will not be using the meter for one month or more.
