  • Page 31: Replacing The Battery

    Replacing the Battery The battery in the ION 8800 meter keeps the real time clock running when supply power is lost. Replace the battery if the meter has been stored for an extended period of time without power (longer than two years). If the meter will be without power for an extended length of time, disconnect the battery cable so that the battery maintains its 10-year shelf life.
