BATTERY OPERATION

The TC-3000 may be operated on battery power or using an AC adapter. If using the
meter as a bench top unit, use the AC adapter if possible. If using the meters only on
battery power, always keep a spare battery on hand.

Replacing the Battery

The TC-3000 uses a standard 9-volt alkaline battery that is available worldwide. The
battery compartment is located on the bottom of the case.

To replace the battery:

1. Open the battery compartment lid.

2. Remove the battery and disconnect the battery from the polarized plug.

3. Carefully connect the new battery to the polarized plug and insert it into the

compartment.

4. Close the battery compartment lid.
