6 MAINTENANCE
6.1 REPLACING THE BATTERIES
The remaining battery charge level is indicated by the
symbol.
When the battery is flat (the
symbol flashes), the instrument emits an audible stop signal (5 beeps), then
automatically switches to standby. When the battery is low, display of the "BAtt" message indicates that the
measurement requested requires too much energy and cannot be made.
Note: when rechargeable batteries are used, this fact must be entered in the configuration of the instrument
("SET-UP" mode) to prevent incorrect operation of the instrument (risk of erroneous measurements
or malfunction of the instrument).
Check that none of the input terminals are connected and that the switch is
set to OFF before opening the instrument.
When the batteries are removed, there is enough reserve energy to preserve the date and time for one minute. If this
time is exceeded, the instrument, when next started up, prompts the user to check the date and time by displaying
the flashing message "tIME" for 2 seconds before displaying new measurements.
6.2 STORAGE
If the instrument is to be stored for more than 2 months, remove the batteries. It will then be necessary to reset the
instrument's time when it is next used.
6.3 CLEANING
Clean the housing of the instrument regularly. This can be done with a damp cloth or soapy water. Do not use
alcohol, solvents, or hydrocarbons.
6.4 METROLOGICAL VERIFICATION
Like all measuring and testing devices, the instrument requires periodic verification.
We recommend checking the instrument at least once a year. For verifications and calibrations, contact our
COFRAC-accredited metrology laboratories or the MANUMESURE agencies.
