Replacing the Batteries
Your POGO meter comes with two pre-
installed AAA batteries. The batteries
should last for approximately 500 tests.
When the battery power runs low, the
low battery symbol appears in the status
bar. When this occurs, the meter has
enough power for about 50 tests. Accuracy
will not be affected. However, you should
change your batteries as soon as possible.
Removing the batteries will not affect
the meter memory or previously stored
settings. The time and date will be restored
to the last time and date displayed before
battery removal.
IMPORTANT:
When the dead battery symbol appears, your
POGO meter will not perform a test. Change the batteries
immediately.
• Remove battery door on back of meter
by sliding the door toward the top end
of the meter.
• Remove and discard the used alkaline
batteries according to your local
environmental regulations.
• Install two new AAA batteries side-by-
side into the battery compartment. Be
sure to align the positive and negative
ends as labeled inside the compartment.
