Short circuit Open circuit
When the battery voltage drop below proper operation range the symbol
will appear on the LCD display and the battery need to changed.
Before changing the battery, switch the main dial to “OFF ”and disconnect
test leads. Open the battery lid by a screwdriver.
Replace the old batteries with two LR03 or AAA size batteries.
Close the battery lid and fasten the screw.
To prevent electrical hazard or shock, turn off clamp meter and disconnect
test leads before removing battery lid.
Never uses the meter before the battery lid is closed.
