Replacing the Battery
Your measuring device must be equipped with 4 batteries (AA).
When the low battery signal "LO” appears in the display you have to
replace the battery.
Proceed as follows:
At the back of the measuring instrument, the battery compartment
is secured with two recessed head screws Take a suitable cross-
tip screwdriver and remove the two screws. Carefully remove the
cover. The battery compartment is now open and the battery is
free. Remove the low battery and insert a fresh one of the same
type with the correct polarity. Close the battery compartment
carefully. Make sure that you only fasten the screws by hand. Do
not force them!
Warning!
• If the battery does not have the correct polarity,
this will inevitably destroy the measuring instru-
ment. Do not operate the measuring instrument
while it is open.
• Do not leave used batteries in the instrument since
even leakage-protected batteries can corrode
releasing chemical agents that might harm your
health or destroy the battery compartment.
• Please consider that used batteries are hazardous
waste. They must be disposed of in an environ-
mentally compatible way. You can return your
used batteries free of charge to the local disposal
institutions, to all our subsidiaries and wherever
batteries are being sold.
