8. INSERTING/CHANGING THE BATTERIES
a) Inserting batteries
Batteries are not normally inserted when the product is delivered to you. Follow the steps
below to prepare the product for use.
Using rechargeable batteries is not recommended due to their low voltage.
1. Turn the rotary switch (3) to the OFF position. Disconnect the current clamp from any
measured objects.
2. Turn the device over and place it on a soft surface that will protect the display from
scratches.
3. Loosen the screw on the battery compartment cover (6) using a suitable Phillips
screwdriver. Remove the battery compartment cover.
4. Remove the old batteries and dispose of them in an environmentally-friendly manner. Refer
to "12. Disposal" on page 48.
5. Place two new AAA batteries into the battery compartment, paying attention to the polarity
markings (gure 1).
6. Replace the battery compartment cover (pay attention to the tab) and screw it into place
with the screw. Do not use any force when securing the screw.
