N O T I C E
When using nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, the battery icon will not indicate
a full charge after freshly charged batteries have been inserted (NiMH batteries
are 1.2 V versus 1.5 V for alkaline batteries). Even though the icon does not indicate
complete charge, 2300 mAH NiMH batteries will achieve 90% of instrument
operation lifetime (before recharge) versus new alkaline batteries.
N O T I C E
To avoid potential damage to the meter from battery leakage, remove the meter
batteries prior to extended periods of non-use.
The meter can be powered with AA alkaline or rechargeable NiMH
batteries. To conserve battery life, the meter will power off after 10 minutes
of inactivity. The backlight powers off after 30 seconds. Select a new time
in the Power Management menu to change the power-off default times.
Note: Rechargeable batteries will only be recharged with the USB+Power module.
Refer to the Instrument User Manual for additional information about
battery installation.
