The  probe  head  unit  uses  standard  1.5V  AA  batteries,  either  good  alkaline  batteries  or 
>2500mAh NiMh batteries are recommended. To replace the batteries open the back cover of 
the unit. Follow the polarity sign to replace the batteries and close the cover afterwards.  

CARE AND MAINTENANCE 

Clean only the exterior surfaces of the device using a soft cloth moistened with  an alcoholic/

water solution. Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleansers. To prevent damage 

to the measurement system, do not expose it directly to sprays, liquids, or solvents. Avoid 

getting moisture inside when cleaning the exterior. Dry the probe before making any voltage 

measurements. The probe is not waterproof. 

The fiber cables should never be disconnected. The boots in the cables protect the connectors 

from movement, shock and dust.  

There are no serviceable parts inside the probe. Return the probe in case probe fails to meet 

its specs or does not operate. Opening the probe voids the warranty.
