2.2 Inserting/Replacing Batteries
Before using the instrument fi rst time, insert 4 LR03 alkaline
batteries. Before measurements, check that the battery level is
suf
fi cient. When the battery charge is low, replace the batteries.
Nickel-metal hydride batteries
Nickel-metal hydride batteries can be used. However, the discharge
characteristic of these batteries is different from that of alkaline
batteries. Be aware that the remaining battery power display does
not function properly.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, disconnect the test leads from
the object to be measured before replacing the batteries.
To avoid the possibility of explosion, do not short
circuit, charge, disassemble, or incinerate batteries.
After battery replacement but before using the
instrument, reattach and screw down the battery cover.

could result. Observe the cautions listed below.
• Do no mix new and old batteries, or different types of
batteries.
• Be careful to observe the battery polarity during installation.
• Do not use batteries after their recommended expiry date.
• Do not allow used batteries to remain in the instrument.
• To avoid corrosion from battery leakage and/or damage to
the instrument, remove the batteries from the instrument
if it is to be kept in storage for an extended period.
