4.1 Battery Installation
The meter requires a standard 9 volt alkaline battery. Use of
rechargeable batteries is not recommended since the meter won’t
read their remaining life correctly due to voltage differences. The
battery compartment is under the meter’s back cover. Remove the
back cover by first removing the (4) four Philips screws located in its
corners. Changing the battery does NOT erase any of the meter’s
memory; data or settings.
