Battery Saver Circuit
The instrument switches itself off automatically if the mea-
surement value remains unchanged for about 10 minutes,
and if none of the operating elements are activated during
this time. Automatic shut-off can be disabled. This does
not apply to the following functions: events, stopwatch,
transmit and menu mode, continuous operation.
