Battery Inspection/Replacement
Inspect the battery compartment monthly for any signs of degradation. Low battery
voltages will cause inaccuracies in readings. Remove the batteries for storage
or if the meter will not be used for longer than one month. Battery leakage will
compromise the safety of the meter and cause irreparable damage to internal
components.
Shock Hazard. Remove the test leads from the circuit prior to removing the battery
cover. Failure to comply can result in serious injury or death.

Maintenance and Storage

Switch off and disconnect the meter completely before carrying out any
maintenance. Clean the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use
abrasives or solvents. Keep away from liquids and ensure the meter is completely
dry before use.
