1. Press the ON button to power up. The LED for the last used
scale will light. [Note – If the battery voltage is getting low,
the three LEDs will flash sequentially for a short period. The
instrument will continue to operate for some time but it is

soon as convenient.]

LED opposite the required scale lights.

the upper line (Wood) of the meter dial which is marked from

high reading.
