AC Power Adaptor
This meter is normally powered by six (6) 1.5V ‘AA’ batteries. An optional 9V power adaptor is
available. When the adaptor is used, the meter is permanently powered and the power button will
be disabled.
System Reset
If the meter’s keys become inoperable or if the display freezes the Reset button can be used to
reset the instrument.
1. Use a paper clip or similar item to momentarily press the reset button located on the lower right
side of the instrument under the snap-off compartment cover.
2. After pressing the Reset button, switch the instrument ON by pressing and holding the POWER
key for at least 1.5 seconds. If using the power adaptor unplug the adaptor and then plug it back
in again to power the meter.
Battery Replacement and Disposal
When the low battery icon
appears on the LCD, the batteries must be replaced. Several hours of
accurate readings are still possible in this condition; however batteries should be replaced as soon
as possible:
1. Remove the two (2) Phillips screws from the rear of the meter (directly above the top of the tilt
stand).
2. Remove and safely place the battery compartment and screws where they will not be damaged
or lost.
3. Replace the six (6) 1.5V ‘AA’ batteries observing polarity.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover with the two (2) Phillips screws.
All EU users are legally bound by the battery ordinance to return all used batteries to
