2.1.4 Battery Low Warning
(When mark lights)
Power OFF
1. Press
POWER
to turn the instrument off.
The " " indicator lights up when the remaining
battery capacity is low. In this case, the instrument's
reliability is not guaranteed. Replace the battery
immediately.
To check remaining battery life, check the bar
graph, when powering on. (See 2.1.3: Turning the
Power On and Off) The bar graph provides a rough
approximation of remaining battery life. Be careful
for the battery life especially when using the REC
function.
Batteries tend to increase in voltage somewhat when
left unused for a long period. Even if the battery
warning annunciator becomes temporarily off after
the period, replace the battery as soon as possible.
If the battery is not replaced at this point in time,
the annunciator may not light up immediately on the
next occasion. Replace a new battery before it ruins
a measurement or causes some other inconvenience.
(See 2.1.1: Installing or Replacing the Battery)

automatically. When this occurs,
bAtt

displayed.
When power goes off after display of these marks,
replace the exhausted battery with a new one.
