8.1.1 Low battery indicator

A low battery icon will appear when approximately 25 hours of battery life remains. 

If the batteries are not replaced after the low battery icon appears, the batteries will 

eventually be depleted to the level where the instrument cannot reliably be used 

without the possibility of measurement errors. When the batteries are depleted to 

the point that reliable measurement can no longer be made, the large display will 

read bAt and the instrument will not be usable until the batteries are replaced.

Note: Replace the batteries when the battery icon indicates about 25 hours battery life 
remaining.
