PEAKTECH PKT-P3690 [54/57] Maintenance

7. Maintenance

7.1. Installing the battery

Your meter requires a 9V-battery for power. The battery-symbol appears

when the battery voltage drops to certain limits. For correct operation,

replace the battery as soon as possible. Continued use with a low battery

will lead to errors in readings.

WARNING!

To avoid electric shock, disconnect all leads from any equipment before you

remove or install the battery.

Follow these steps to install the battery.

1. Turn off the power and disconnect all test leads.

2. Remove the back cover by unscrewing the two screws of the battery

compartment and pull it off.

3. Remove the used battery.

4. Place the new battery inside the insulation capsule and snap it onto

place.

WARNING!

Do not discard the provided battery insulation capsule. If you do not use this

insulation capsule properly, it might cause damage or injury.

WARNING!

Do not operate the meter until you replace the batteries and close the

battery compartment cover.
