9. Battery Indicator and Battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the battery symbol
AO
will flash as soon as the device is switched on (partly filled battery
displayed). Although the device will continue to measure reliably, you
should obtain replacement batteries.
Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are flat, the battery symbol
AO
will flash as soon
as the device is switched on (flat battery displayed). You cannot
take any further measurements and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment
7
at the back of the device by
pushing inwards at the two arrows and pulling out the battery
compartment cover.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as shown by the
symbols in the compartment.
3. To set date and time, follow the procedure described in
«Section 2.».

The memory retains all values although date and time (and
possibly also set alarm times) must be reset – the year
number therefore flashes automatically after the batteries
are replaced.
