10. Checking the battery voltage

Before each measurement, the tester automatically checks that
the charge level of the batteries is sufficient for correct execution
of the respective measurement.
If this is not the case, the following information is displayed:

In this case the tester must be switched off and the batteries
replaced as described in point 6.1.
