Set the range selector switch (1) to the "O" position
(OFF).

The pointer has to be exactly over the bar code of the

Battery Test
➭
Set the range selector switch (1) to the "
Ω
x 1" position
(red marking).
➭
With the rotary knob (2), adjust the movement pointer
on the red scale to full-scale deflection (

tion, or if the indication is instable after the adjustment, the
battery is exhausted and has to be replaced with a new
one, see chapter 3.1.
