Batteries are inserted into the compartment in the bottom side of the instrument.
To change the battery:
1. Half turn the screws on the compartment cover and then carefully lift the cover.
2. Make sure that the rubber sealing of the cover will not be damaged or removed from
the guiding notch.
3. Insert the new battery.
- Ensure correct orientation according to the sketch on the battery cover to
avoid internal damage to the tester.
When exchanging batteries, the memorized parameter and calibration values are
deleted. Therefore, you need to execute a new calibration and enter the relevant
parameters again after exchange of the batteries.
After battery replacement, switch the instrument on/off twice to reset it to a predefined
operating status. All previous settings will be restored to the tester after connecting to
the CorDEX CONNECTâ„¢ software, or the UT5000 Mini app.
Only use a 3.6V Lithium Thionyl Chloride Cell. The use of different batteries is
strictly forbidden!
