Battery operation

For battery operation, you will either require 6 NiCd or alkaline batteries (D-cells). The current battery voltage is indicated on the display by a symbol:

HNote:

The batteries should be exchanged as soon as possible when the charge indication is at about 25%. The instru- ment automatically switches off when reliable operation can no longer be ensured. We recommend that a spare set of fully charged batteries be available when using the instrument for longer periods outside.

When the batteries are exchanged, all settings will re- main stored and are instantly available when switching on again.

HNote:

Used or defective batteries are special refuse and shall be disposed of according to legal regulations.

Inserting the batteries

To insert new batteries, you must first loosen the four screws at the bottom of the instrument (see following figure) and then remove the battery compartment lid.

Each battery in the battery pack is secured with a separate holder.

AAttention:

When inserting the batteries, make sure that the polari- ties are correct and that the switch in the battery com- partment is set to the type of battery being used!

Nickel Cadmium (NiCd):	left
Alkaline (Alk):	right

This ensures that only rechargeable batteries are charged.
