Battery
The meter is designed so the lithium battery can be safely installed or replaced while the meter is operating, as
follows:
1.
If fitted, remove the seal from the battery holder securing screw.
2.
Undo the securing screw and carefully extract the battery holder from the meter housing.
3.
The meter may be initially shipped with the battery cable in the disconnected position (1). If this is the case,
move and fit the cable connector into the moulded pillar, as shown (2).
The illustrations show a rear view of the battery holder.
4.
If the battery is being replaced, slide the old one out from under the securing tab and exchange.
5.
Ensure the battery connector is the correct way round, as shown above.
6.
Replace the battery holder into the meter, ensuring the moulded plastic connector pillar is inserted into the
lower aperture.
7.
Tighten front securing screw.
8.
Using the meter support tool, clear any battery error indications/alarms and reset the battery expected life
time value.
9.
Seal the meter, as necessary.
