2.1 Preparations
Battery
The SIXTOMAT F2 operates with a 1.5 V AA-type battery (alkaline-manganese battery). Since the
meter’s power consumption is minimal, the battery will last for a long time. When the battery’s capacity
becomes exhausted, the
BAT
symbol appears on the display as a warning that the battery has to be
replaced at the earliest possible opportunity. Measurements cease to be possible if the display only
indicates
BAT
. The battery must be immediately replaced.
To change the battery, open the battery compartment of the SIXTOMAT F2. Remove the exhausted
battery and insert the new one. Ensure correct polarity
