POWERING ON: Press the power button (PWR) and release to
turn ON the tester. The “backlighting” screen appears (see
Figure 6-1). Pressing the select (SEL) button while this screen is
present turns on LCD lighting (“backlighting”). Backlighting is
important when working in dim light, but it shortens battery life.
NOTE: Once enabled, the LCD will remain backlit until the tester
is powered OFF. The backlight selection screen (Figure
6-1) is always lighted during the 3-second period that it is
displayed. This allows you to turn the tester ON in a dark
area and SELECT backlighting during the process.
