Battery operation
For the battery operation of the DMS Go+, we recom-
mend the corresponding lithium-ion battery. You should 
only use this battery for the battery operation.
You can charge the lithium-ion battery either within the 
instrument itself or in an external charger. If a lithium-ion 
battery is inserted, charging starts automatically as 
soon as you connect the charger/power adapter to the 
DMS Go+ and to the mains power supply. 
For power supply, please also see Chapter 3.2 Power 
supply, page 3-2. For the use of batteries, please also 
see Chapter 8.2 Battery care, page 8-2.

sary to make sure that the required functions operate 
perfectly in the intended combination.
