Inserting/changing the batteries

It is recommended that you use alkaline manganese batteries to operate the measuring tool.

To open the battery compartment cover (11), press on the locking mechanism (12) and remove the battery compartment cover. Insert the batteries.

When inserting the batteries, ensure that the polarity is correct according to the illustration on the inside of the battery compartment.

If the batteries become weak, the status indicator (7) will flash. The measuring tool can still be operated for approximately 1 hour after the first flash.

Always replace all the batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from the same manufacturer and which have the same capacity.

Take the batteries out of the measuring tool when you are not using it for a prolonged period of time. The batteries can corrode and self-discharge during prolonged storage in the measuring tool.
