Proceed as follows to replace the batteries:
- Switch off the measuring instrument.
- Loosen the battery compartment screw on the back off the unit, and slide the lid off in the direction of the
arrow.
- Replace the flat batteries with new alkaline batteries of the same type (e.g. 1604A).
- Close the casing again carefully by proceeding in reverse order.
Do not leave flat batteries in the device. Even batteries protected against leaking can
corrode and thus release chemicals which may be detrimental to your health or destroy
the battery compartment.
Batteries may not be charged, shortened or thrown into fire. Batteries may not be
recharged. Danger of explosion!
Leaking or damaged batteries/accumulators can cause burning if they come into con-
tact with the skin. Therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
Operation with a power pack unit
Optionally, the measuring device can also be operated with a suitable power pack unit. The power pack sock-
et (12) is located on the right side of the casing beneath a cover (DC IN). Open the cover with a
pointed object. The matching plug has the following technical specifications:
Dimensions outside 5.5 mm, inner hole 2.5 mm.
Polarity: Outside minus (-), inside plus (+)
Operating data: Voltage: 9 VDC, current: at least 34 mA
Order a matching battery using the order number 65 25 09. Order the matching power pack
unit using the order number 12 26 99.
