Battery Installation
Figure 1 on page 2—7 provides an exploded view of battery installation.
1. Unhook the latch and remove the battery compartment cover. The
polarities are shown on the battery holder.
2. Place the four batteries provided with the instrument in the holder as
indicated and replace the battery compartment cover. The display will
show the software version number (e.g., “P 1.6”) after correct battery
installation.
When replacing discharged batteries, always replace the complete set of four
alkaline batteries. Rechargeable batteries are not recommended and
cannot be recharged in the instrument.
Note: The Low Battery icon will appear on the display when the batteries have 10%
battery life remaining. The battery icon will flash when the batteries are too low
to complete measurements. See Instrument Keys and Display on page 1—15.
