Note:
At certain states of rechargeable internal batteries, if the measuring unit is switched on with
connected power adapter or USB connection with PC, pressing the red Power for 3 seconds may not
switch on the instrument successfully. In this case, the instrument display remains black and the red
LED will be lighting continuously. Such state may be overcome by disconnecting the power adapter
and the USB connection and turning the instrument off by pressing the red Power key for
approximately 10 seconds, while the red LED will switch of. Therefore it is suggested to switch the
instrument on with disconnected power adapter and USB connection.
