batteries. For best battery indicator results, ensure the appropriate Battery Type is selected in
the Setup > Battery Type menu.
The battery indicator displays a full bar with fresh alkaline or fully charged batteries
installed. As the batteries weaken, the bar will be reduced. When the battery symbol is low the
instrument can still be used, but the batteries should be charged or recharged at the earliest
opportunity. The instrument will turn off automatically when batteries are very low, preceded by a
Low Battery Warning on the display.
To retain all user settings and stored memory readings, only replace the batteries after the
instrument has powered-down. Battery performance decreases at low temperatures.
Rechargeable Batteries:
DeFelsko recommends the use of eneloop (NiMH) rechargeable batteries. They combine the
advantages of rechargeable batteries and disposable (Alkaline) batteries. They discharge very slowly
and can be stored for long periods without having self discharge concerns. (See www.eneloop.info)
