gauge such as serial numbers, software version and similar data in the About menu. Additionally, the energy
menu informs the user of the current battery state. If the measured battery voltage is displayed as less than
6.5V then it is necessary to recharge the battery.

The gauge does not contain any user-replaceable components. In the unlikely event of a fault, your gauge
should be returned to your local Elcometer supplier or directly to Elcometer. The warranty will be invalidated
