2.Remove the old battery by lifting the battery extractor loop.

3.Place the new battery in the battery compartment. Be sure to observe proper polarity.

4.Re-install the battery cover before resuming use of the instrument.

NOTES:

Less than 10% of battery life remains when the BAT annuncia- tor turns on.

When the battery is excessively discharged, the display is blanked.

If the instrument is going to be stored for a long period of time or in a high temperature environment, remove the battery to prevent leakage damage.

After a new battery is installed, allow approximately 5 sec- onds for display turn-on the first time the unit is turned on. During this period, microcomputer initialization is per- formed.

MEMORY BACKUP

During battery replacement, the contents of user-programmed memory (data, operating modes, etc.) can be saved. Prior to removing the old battery, turn off the instrument, and connect an HH22-AC battery charger. Then exchange batteries, and disconnect the battery charger. Do not leave the bat- tery charger connected to instruments with non-rechargeable batteries.

OPERATION WITH RECHARGEABLE

BATTERY

HH22-ACprovides a 9-volt Ni-Cd battery and recharger suitable for use with the unit. This battery provides 3-4 hours of continuous operation. This dura- tion can be extended to several days by operating simultaneously from both the battery and recharger.

Turn off the instrument to recharge the battery. Allow 7 hours to fully recharge the battery. Then unplug the recharger to avoid overcharging.
