9 MAINTENANCE
9.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Whether in use or in storage, please do not exceed the specifications to avoid any
possible damage or danger during use. Do not place this instrument in high temperature
and/or humidity or expose to direct sunlight. For long term storing, remove the batteries to
avoid leakage of battery fluid that can damage the internal components.
9.2 BATTERY REPLACEMENT
A blinking of ALARM LED for 3 seconds means that the batteries are low. Stop the
recording and replace the batteries with a new set. The management software allows the
operator to verify the batteries' status.
The instrument could keep the data stored even without batteries. The set
date and time don't get lost provided that the battery replacement takes
less than 2 minutes.
Only experts and trained technicians should perform this operation. Remove
the flexible head from the conductor under test before replacing the
batteries.
1. Stop the recording (if necessary), remove the flexible heads from the conductors under
test and transfer the stored data to a PC.
2. Remove the covers on the bottom side of the instrument using a screwdriver in the
proper positions (1) and unscrew the 4 fixing screws (see Fig. 4).
3. Open the box and unscrew the cover's fixing screw of the battery housing.
4. Replace the batteries with a new set of the same type (see § 10.2). Close the battery
housing with the screw, reinsert the screws, screw them and reinsert the plastic covers.
Do not throw flat batteries in the environment after use.

To clean the instrument, use a soft dry cloth. Never use a wet cloth, solvents or water, etc.
