Chapter 12: Tester Internal Batteries

The Tester uses 6 AA, 1.5-volt batteries (alkaline recommended)
to allow testing of batteries down to 1 volt and supply power
while the menu is active. The analyzer can test batteries down
to 5.5 volts when the internal batteries are not functioning.

Battery Power Indicator

The square in the upper left corner of the display indicates
the charge level of the battery pack. The square is black when
the battery pack is fully charged. It gradually changes to white
as the charge level declines. The Tester will display a warning
message when the batteries need replacing.
