Battery Replacement

If necessary, you can replace the AIM's battery. To obtain a new battery, contact
Trilithic. See "Spare Parts List" on page 20.
You also can return your AIM to Trilithic Customer Service and request that the
battery be replaced. See "Return Policy" on page v.
Caution: ESD (electro-static discharge) can damage the meter. When removing and
replacing the battery, observe proper ESD precautions to avoid static discharge. We
recommend performing this procedure at a functional ESD workstation. Avoid
touching the meter's circuit board during the procedure.
Important: Make sure the AIM is turned off and is not connected to a power source
before you remove and replace the battery.
To remove the battery:
1 Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the 6 screws from the back housing of
