5.6 Testing batteries
It will be possible to test 1.5 V and 9 V batteries. According to the battery
type, set the switch (4) to the position “1.5V” or “9V”. Apply the black test
tip to the negative pole and the red test tip to the positive pole of the bat-
tery. The battery voltage will be displayed.

the object to be measured. For this purpose, press the button “HOLD”
(2). “HOLD” will appear. To return to the present value, deactivate the
function with the button “HOLD” (“HOLD” will disappear).
5.8 Activating the display illumination
To activate the display illumination, press the button (3). To deactivate
it, press the button once again.
6 Replacing the Battery or the Fuses

insert a new 9 V battery.
B If it is not possible to measure currents, check the internal fuses and
have them replaced by skilled personnel.
You will find the battery compartment and the fuse holders under the
housing cover on the rear side of the meter.
1) Fold up the tilt stand, release the two screws of the housing cover,
then remove the cover.
WARNING: Before opening the housing, remove the test tips
from the measuring points and the test leads from the jacks
on the meter, otherwise you will risk an electric shock. Never
operate the meter when it is open.
