Adjusting the Zero Point (Zero Adjustment)
• Keep the zero-adjustment board at least 10 cm away from the
instrument.
• Always use the accompanying or optional zero-adjustment
board when performing zero adjustment.
• Insert the pin tips into the hole on the zero-adjustment board
and place each of the SOURCE and SENSE terminals into
contact with the hole on the board. (See the gure below.)

SENSE
• Do not place the zero-adjustment board on top of the battery
or any metal. Electromagnetic induction eect could result in
unstable measurement values. In such a case, keep the zero-
adjustment board away from any metal.
• If zero adjustment is performed with the Pin Type Lead short-
circuited at the tips or using a metal sheet other than the zero-
adjustment board intended for this purpose, the instrument
cannot adjust the zero point accurately.
• When the distance between the terminals on the battery (target
under measurement) is more than that between the holes on
the zero-adjustment board, use the outermost holes to perform
zero adjustment.
• Consider the zero-adjustment board to be a consumable. It
is recommended to replace it with a new one after the use of
around 700 times.
