Battery Replacement and Recharging
If the meter is to be used for an extended period of time, use of the AC adaptor is recommended.
For portable operation or quick checks use the rechargeable 9V Nickel Metal Hydride battery or a
9V alkaline battery.
Turning the meter OFF when not in use will prolong battery life.
When the battery icon flashes, replace or recharge the battery. Note that only the supplied 9V
NiCad battery can be recharged.
Replace the battery using the following procedure:
1. Fully open the meter.
2. Insert a coin or flat screwdriver into the slot at the back of the meter.
3. Pop the battery compartment cover and then carefully remove it in the direction of the arrow.
4. Replace the battery and snap the cover back in place.
Recharge the supplied 9V Nickel Metal Hydride battery using the following procedure:
1. Turn the meter off.
2. Ensure that the rechargeable battery is installed.
3. Plug the charger/adaptor into the meter.
4. Plug the charge/adaptor into an AC outlet source.
5. Charge the battery for 24 to 48 hours before its first use. An overnight charge will enable
continuous use for approximately 45 minutes. A full charge will provide one hour of
continuous use.
