5.9. Battery change indicator
Batteries almost discharged
When the batteries are approximately 75% used, the
battery symbol will flash a few times as soon as the
instrument is switched on (if at least one of the batter-
ies still has some charge). Although the
instrument will continue to measure reliably, you
should obtain replacement batteries.
Batteries discharged – replacements required
When the batteries are discharged, the battery symbol
will appear, unblinking, as soon as the instrument is
switched on. You cannot take any further measure-
ments and must replace the batteries.
1. Open the battery compartment on the bottom of the
instrument.
2. Replace the batteries – ensure they are correctly
connected, as shown on the symbols in the compart-
ment.
3. The memory retains all values although date and
time must be reset – the year number will flash
automatically after the batteries are replaced.
4. To set date and time, follow the procedure described
in Section 4.3.
Note:
Use four new, Long-Life 1.5 V AAA batteries. Do not
use batteries beyond their expiration date. If the
monitor is not going to be used for a prolonged period,
the batteries should be removed.
