5.1. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
To replace the batteries, follow the next steps:
• Turn OFF the instrument.
• Remove the four screws on the back of the instrument to open the battery compartment.
• Remove the old batteries.
• Insert four new 1.5V AA batteries in the battery compartment while paying attention to the correct
polarity.
• Close the battery compartment using the four screws.
Note:
If the battery capacity is less than 20%, the serial communication and the backlight feature
are not available.
The instrument is equipped with the BEPS (Battery Error Prevention System) feature, which
automatically turns the instrument off when the battery level is too low to ensure reliable readings.
