Caution
Disconnect the multimeter from the measuring circuit before
you open it to replace the battery or the fuse!
17.1 Battery
Prior to initial start-up or after storage of multimeter, verify that
the batteries inserted in the multimeter do not leak. Repeat this
check at regular brief intervals. If the batteries are leaking,
remove them carefully and entirely with a moist cloth and install
new batteries before putting the multimeter back into opera-
tion. When the symbol „
“ (17) appears on the LCD (1),
replace the batteries as soon as possible. Although measure-
ments can still be performed, a reduced measuring accuracy
must be taken into account in this case. The multimeter oper-
ates with 2 x AA size alkaline manganese batteries per IEC LR6.
Replacing the Battery
➭
Place the multimeter on its face, loosen the single screw on
the rear side and remove the battery cover.
Attention!
!
Remove the batteries by le-
vering out the
negative pole
of
the batteries with a screw
driver
first
. Otherwise, the
contacts of the positive pole
in the battery compartment
might be damaged and the
battery lead severed.
➭
Remove the batteries from the battery compartment and
replace them with new ones (for technical specifications
refer to sub-section „Power supply“).
