Operation

NOTES:ReadandunderstandallWarningandCautionstatementsinthisoperationmanual

priortousingthismeter.

MeterPower

Themeterispoweredbytwo(2)AAA1.5Vbatteries(locatedincompartmentonbottomofmeter

handle).PressandholdthePowerbuttonfor>2secondstoswitchthedeviceONorOFF.

WhenthemeterswitchesONthedisplayshowsthebatterystatus(FULL,forexample).Thereis

alsoabatterystatusicondisplayedonthelowerrighthandcorneroftheLCD.

Lowbatteryindication

WhenthedisplayedbatteryiconappearsemptyorifthepowerONbatterystatusmessage

indicatesweakbatterypower,thebatteriesshouldbereplacedimmediately.Refertothe

batteryreplacementprocedureinthemaintenancesection.

AutomaticPowerOFF

ThemeterswitchesOFFautomaticallyaftera20minuteperiodofinactivity(±30seconds).To

disabletheAutoPowerOFFfeature:

WiththemeterpowerOFF,pressandholdthePowerbuttonfor>2seconds

Whenthedisplayshowsthebatterystatus(FULL,forexample),pressthebacklight

buttonuntilthedisplayshows‘AoFF’.

TheAPOfeatureisnowdisabledandthemeterwillnotshutoffautomatically.

Notethatthenexttimethemeterispoweredup,theAutoPowerOFFfunctionwillbe

re‐enabledandtheuserwillhavetorepeattheAutoPowerOFFdisableinstructionsto

disablethisfunctionwhendesired.

BacklitLCD

PressthebacklightbuttontoswitchtheLCDbacklightONorOFF.Notethatexcessiveuseofthe

backlightfeaturewillshortenbatterylife.
