MAINtENANCE AND REPAIR
if there appears to be a malfunction during the operation of the meter, the
following steps should be performed in order to isolate the cause of the problem:

Check the battery.

1.

Review the operating instructions for possible mistakes in operating procedure.

2.

inspect and test the test leads for a broken or intermittent connection.
