Maintenance
This Tester is designed to provide years of dependable service,
if the following care instructions are performed:
1. KEEP THE TESTER DRY. If it gets wet, wipe it off.
2. USE AND STORE THE TESTER IN NORMAL TEMPERATURES. Temperature
extremes can shorten the life of the electronic parts and distort or melt
plastic parts.
3. HANDLE THE TESTER GENTLY AND CAREFULLY. Dropping it can damage the
electronic parts or the case.
4. KEEP THE TESTER CLEAN. Wipe the case occasionally with a damp cloth.
DO NOT use chemicals, cleaning solvents, or detergents.
5. USE ONLY FRESH BATTERIES OF THE RECOMMENDED SIZE AND TYPE.
Remove old or weak batteries so they do not leak and damage the unit.
6. IF THE TESTER IS TO BE STORED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME, the batteries
should be removed to prevent damage to the unit.
