After unpacking the instrument, check to see whether it was damaged in transit. This is particularly likely if the
outer casing is clearly damaged. If there is damage, do not attempt to operate the instrument or to repair it without

4.2 Discharged batteries
There is a battery indicator on the screen to show the remaining charge. There are four status the indicator may
show, full, with 2 blacks, with 1 black and empty. If an empty battery indicator flashes it means the power is
almost out, and that is when you should recharge the batteries by connect the AC adapter with the instrument. If
the discharged batteries get to their limitations after long-time use, please replace it with a new one. To replace
the batteries, please remove the battery plate on the back of instrument with a screwdriver.
When the battery charge is extremely low to supply the necessary power, the instrument will automatically switch
off.
