2.3  Removing the protective film from the battery

The meter is supplied with a battery inserted. The 

battery contacts are covered with a protective film to 

prevent the battery from becoming drained prema-

turely. Before using the meter, remove the protective 

film. You will see the film projecting from the battery 

compartment on the back of the meter.

Simply pull the film vertically out of the meter. 

You do not need to open the battery compart-

ment to do this.
