simultaneously. Meter is in calibration if it displays 12%
(+ or - .2).

If you check the calibration and the meter does not display
12% it is likely an indication of a low battery. If this occurs,
change the battery immediately. Continued use with a low
battery may cause the meter to go out of calibration. If you
have a fresh battery and the instrument still does not indicate
a proper calibration, return it to DELMHORST for service.
See

Service for your Meter section.

When the battery is removed and then reconnected, the
meter displays its software version for one second and then
turns itself off. After replacing the battery, you must reset
the meter as described in

Resetting the Meter section.
