2 GETTING STARTED

2.1 FITTING BATTERIES
The Elcometer 406L uses dry cell batteries only. Sealed alkaline batteries are recommended.
5 x LR03 (AAA) alkaline batteries are supplied in the kit.
To fit or replace the batteries:
1. Locate the two screws which retain the battery compartment cover at the rear
of the gauge.
2. Use the screwdriver supplied to remove the screws and then lift off the battery
compartment cover.
3. Place the batteries in the battery holders ensuring correct polarity.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and tighten the retaining screws.
Note: Remove the batteries from the gauge if it is to remain unused for a long period
of time. This will prevent damage to the gauge in the event of malfunction of the
batteries.
Note: Alkaline batteries must be disposed of carefully to avoid environmental
contamination. Please consult your local Environmental Authority for information on
disposal in your region.
Do not dispose of any batteries in fire.
