Battery renewal
The battery capacity will gradually degrade by many charging/discharging cycles and
by ageing. We recommend that you fit the instrument with a new battery approxi-
mately every 12 to 18 months.
The need for renewing the battery depends on the usage pattern and the battery
capacity needed.
