9 Carefully replace the inner protective cover. Engage the top snaps first, taking care to
place the slot at the top of the cover over the IR light pipe. Failure to do so could break
the light pipe. Ensure that all four meter base tabs are engaged with the slots at the top
and bottom of the inner cover.
10 Place the cover over the meter base until the flange on the cover is flush with the flange
on the meter base.

Turn the cover clockwise until the locking tabs are fully engaged with the meter base.
12 If the cover has a Demand Reset or an Optical Connector, be sure these are properly
aligned with their corresponding accessory on the register faceplate. If not aligned
correctly, the Demand Reset or Optical Connector will not function properly. If the
Demand Reset plunger is not in the retracted position before turning the outer cover, the
mechanism may be damaged.
